In the dream, Li Yan left, taking Gu Tong's soul and spirit with him.
Gu Tong was like a walking corpse, wandering listlessly through the streets and alleys, unable to find a place to rest; she was without a home and no longer had the warmth of a home.
Back when they were in the East District, their relationship was very poor, and they found it difficult to communicate.
Her father couldn't bear to watch it any longer, so he took matters into his own hands and bought them a marriage house.
Li Yan would not stay there on regular days unless he returned for a short stay after a mission.
During that time, their communication was limited, yet it felt pleasant.
Gu Tong cooked while Li Yan washed the dishes, just like it says in the Devil's Dictionary: 'What is a husband? The person who washes dishes after a meal'.
Gu Tong shopped, Li Yan took care of organizing and tidying, and he did so without complaint.
Gu Tong studied medical topics while Li Yan silently reviewed case files.
