how do I keep coming back to ZYL/SW, this is a post about Wang Xiangyang and Bai Suxia!
Hee! It's all good! It's interesting! :-)
I guess I mean the difference between WXY and ZYL is that the former reacts to loss with destruction and the latter with constructive salvation...)
*nodnod* In my reading, WXY is feeling specifically personally responsible because he broke his promise (to always answer her call within 5 rings), and angry at the randomness of it and the apparent callousness of the hospital system, and Ye Zun & co step in to exploit those feelings and dial them up to 15. So I agree with you, but I don't think it's entirely WXY's fault.
Like, if he'd felt that Bai Suxia had chosen to sacrifice herself for the greater good and there'd been no other way to save the world, he might well have felt differently about it -- still sad and grieving, but without the bitterness, maybe? Idk. :-)
