The handwritten letters shown at the end were actually written by shen hao nan and zhai yi ying. It's a nice touch that the writer/director made the leads interpret the vague ending themselves. They surely understand and lived their roles ❤️
Letter to Jin zhaomu by zhai yi ying—
"Your pain and hatred felt so real, it made my heart ache and made me want to give you a hug. I truly hope that in a parallel world, Xiao Mushen wasn't late. When he rushed into the tent with flowers, you were carefully hiding the cake with the ring... Later in the story, you would occasionally snuggle on the sofa eating cake on rainy days, and often watch the sun rise and set hand-in-hand. In short, you lived happily ever after together~
I believe that everyone's unspoken thoughts, yearnings, and unfulfilled promises are quietly growing into something sweet on a beautiful, sunny day.
Thank you all for accompanying "us" on this journey. Next, let's walk together toward where the sun rises!"
The ML and his girlfriend live a happy life and he is about to propose to her but on the day he was supposed to…
The text in the end (not the handwritten note) says he got legal punishment and then sent to mental hospital. The handwritten letter says he lived happily with his beloved in his very own world (he has bipolar disorder).
"From then on, the anchor point of his life sank into that sun-drenched cage. Perhaps to outsiders, the daily, repeated question, "Wife, what flower is this?" sounded like a dirge for a scattered soul.
But for him, within those dialogues with the air, the small house surrounded by flowers in his mind remained full, and his beloved had never left. They lived happily in a moment that would never end.
What withered was not him, but the world outside the windows.
good acting job for bothbut why the Ml get his lips done . it looks scary sometimes , he didn’t need to do it
He got his lips done? Could that be because of makeup? I had the suspicion when I watched him in dark glory and few others, his lips there looked so botox-ey. Interestingly, some of his later dramas had normal lips. His lip changes in his dramas are so random I end up thinking it was probably because of makeup.

Translation of the handwritten letter at the end—

Xiao Mushen will live happily forever. "
