°°°
Before she jumped into the pond filled with ten thousand venomous creatures, Ah Lai asked her, 'Did you ever regret meeting him?'
Su Bai watched her quietly. After a long moment, she lifted her lips and smiled. 'It was the greatest blessing of my life to have met him.'
And she leapt off the steps.
She thought: no matter how difficult her love was, no matter how she hated and then despaired, in this life, she was immensely fortunate.
Because she had once loved a person so deeply.
Even if, he had never loved her.

[Notes]
The Gu in the title refers to a venom-based poison. The traditional preparation of the gu poison involves sealing several venomous creatures (e.g., centipede, snake, scorpion) inside a closed container, where they devour one another to concentrate their toxins into a single survivor.
