In the silent night air, the two brothers' eyes met, and for a moment they traveled through the long river of time, but they could never find the warmth and tacit understanding of the past.

They each had a desolate world in their hearts and thought that the other person would live a good life, but little did they know that each other's world was filled with thorns and mud.

This is a silent tragedy, two hearts drifting apart in misunderstanding and loneliness.

Once upon a time, they were each other's strongest support, sharing each other's happiness and sorrow, but now, that deep brotherhood seems to be separated by an invisible wall. The two are drifting further and further away on their respective tracks, until they become strangers in each other's eyes.

There was a deep worry in Zero Kiryu's eyes, he wished he could pull back a little bit of it to escape from the dangerous abyss.

"Ichiru, you've changed." Kiryu Rei's voice was low and heavy, and every word seemed like the pain squeezed out from the bottom of his heart.

"But look at you now. Are you really happy following Feiyingxian?"

Hearing this, a bitter smile appeared on Yilu's lips. There were too many emotions hidden in that smile, including unwillingness, struggle, and a hint of despair that was hardly noticeable.

"Why bother with me? Do you think I want this? In this world, only Master Fei is willing to listen to me and understand my pain.

You will never understand the bond between us."

The two of them stood there, and the world around them seemed to stand still.

Kiryu Zero's heart was deeply hurt, and he realized that the gap between him and his brother might not be filled with simple words.

He couldn't get even a hint of the explanation he wanted, and he never really gave him even a hint of the understanding he needed.

"If I had discovered your struggle earlier, if I had given you more care and support... maybe nothing would have turned out like this."

There was a hint of self-blame in Zero Kiryu's voice. He slowly stretched out his hand, wanting to touch his brother, but stopped at the last moment.

Yilu did not dodge, but just looked at Ling quietly and sneered: "Ling, we can't go back, don't do anything meaningless."

In the end, Yilu didn't say anything else, just turned around silently and disappeared from Zero's sight.

There is an unspeakable sadness in the air. Perhaps, this is the price of growing up. Everyone must learn to be independent in loneliness and pain. Even the closest relatives... will fall apart one day.

Kiryu Ling stood alone. There was no fierce fighting, but it was an inner war that was more cruel than any physical conflict.

The silence between the two brothers hurt more than any words.

"Why bother, Kiryu Zero?"

Yes, they could have worked together, so why did they choose to torture each other? The two of them could no longer remember.

A few words of explanation cannot erase the misunderstandings and estrangements that have accumulated over time.

Never... go back.

……

At this point, the dispute was put on hold for the time being.

The school is currently preparing for a dance, which will help everyone relax.

Shu Kiryuu was very well prepared. Without asking anyone else, he had already prepared dresses for the two sisters. Unfortunately, An An had already prepared the clothes.

She even took the clothes to show to Kiryuu Kaname with great interest, but only got a complicated nod from Kiryuu Kaname.

Without An An saying much, he delivered the clothes to the two sisters the next day. An An just sighed regretfully and thought, forget it, just put the clothes he made in the bottom of the box.

The curtain of the ball slowly opened, and Yuki, wearing the dress carefully selected by Shu, appeared in front of everyone like a princess from a fairy tale.

Her eyes moved through the crowd and finally stopped on Zero Kiryu.

When their eyes met, the amazement in Zero's eyes was like bright fireworks, instantly lighting up time.

Yuki walked up to Ling holding up the edge of her skirt and invited him with a smile: "Gentleman, may I invite you to dance with me?"

Kiryu Rei placed his large palm on her waist and back, and the two of them spun into the dance floor little by little following the rhythm of the song.

Every rotation and every gaze silently tells of the tacit understanding and affection between each other, which is so beautiful.

Different from the joy here, An An on the other side is fighting enthusiastically with Kiryu Ichiru.

The cause of the incident was very dramatic. An An accidentally mistook a figure and took Yilu as Ling.

She enthusiastically told him to go to the dance, where Yuuki was waiting for him, but unexpectedly, Yilu's reaction was as cold as ice. She turned around and left without even looking back.

An An frowned slightly and tried to hold him back, but Yilu suddenly broke free with fierce movements. An An naturally had to fight back, and they started fighting.

In this unexpectedly escalating confrontation, the two men became more and more courageous and forgot everything around them.

It was not until the battle gradually subsided and Yilu completely escaped and left that An An suddenly realized that the dress that Kiryuu had carefully prepared for her had inadvertently become tattered.

The stains and torn fabrics silently told of the intensity of what had just happened, making An An very upset.

"Damn you little brat, woo woo, my dress..."

For a moment, An An felt mixed emotions and was anxious to find a remedy. She bent down to tidy up her clothes and prepared to go back to the banquet hall, but halfway, she unexpectedly met the graceful Kiryuu who was standing by the lake.

Under the moonlight, his smile was warm and deep. Facing An An's slightly embarrassed appearance, he not only did not show any disgust, but instead extended his hand to her with an indescribable gentlemanly demeanor.

"Miss Heizhu An'an, would you like to dance with me?"

At this moment, all the embarrassment and uneasiness were gone with the wind, and An An was deeply moved by this sudden romance.

She gladly accepted it, placed her small hand in his broad palm, and danced slowly to his tune under the witness of the moonlight.

The two of them slowly rotated and moved, and every step seemed so harmonious and coordinated.

Shu Kiryu's dance steps are light and powerful, as if they can make An An forget all his worries.

Their shadows, reflected by the moonlight, kept lengthening and interweaving, becoming the most beautiful scene of the night.

An An looked up at his extremely handsome features, her heart surging as if it was about to jump out.

She closed her eyes gently, hooked her small hands tightly around his clothes, moved back a little bit, and hugged his strong waist.

A pleasant laugh came from my ear, and his lips were close to my ear, whispering softly: "I thought you would be shy for a long time."

"I'm shy now too, you're not allowed to look at me..."

"Okay, I won't look at you and just dance."

An An followed her own wishes and put her head on his chest. Even though it was cold and there was no human heartbeat, An An... still felt warm.

If only it could always be like this, I really wish time could stop at this moment.
