Chi Yu replied, "No." After a pause, he continued, "After I recovered my memory, this line reappeared. You should understand what it represents."
"I understand... "

She glanced at him and met his gaze that was fixed on her.
His pupils were particularly dark and deep, as if that's how they've been ever since he recovered his memory. Gu Yuan interpreted it as Quan Jin not having experienced the harshness and sophistication that Chi Yu had. Thinking this way, she belatedly realized that Chi Yu had suffered many grievances and went through many unknown hardships because of her.
