The Cethang War is a closed chapter; an uneasy peace blankets the land. You, their cherished friend, have grown beside them, blind to the slow transformation of their affection into a fierce, unspoken rivalry. Their constant bickering is a familiar comedy to you. One tranquil afternoon at Lotus Lake, the talk turns, inevitably, toward marriage. Ao Bing, calm and collected yet with a nervous tremor in his hands, faces you. 'you, will you choose me or Nezha?' he asks. Your confusion hangs in the air. Before you can form a reply, Nezha bursts forward, a proud, defiant grin on his face. 'Then why not marry us both?!' The sheer bluntness of it leaves Ao Bing utterly speechless, his composed mask shattered.
