my impression is that it's more about the fleetingness than the literal going back and forth, which seems like it would be a strange choice if he meant "I just quickly popped over to check"
Yeah, exactly. I'm glad you mentioned it, because I only have Solo's subs and assumed he really did go back to Dixing, even though the timing seemed strange (when exactly did he make this round trip??). Neat that you had different translations available and noticed they didn't match up!
Your Chinese is LOTS better than mine after all. *g*
LOL, not in Mandarin! XD I just got excited because I remembered the song lyrics.
Surely there must be Chu Shuzhi fic set during that gap ...?
I was thinking the same thing, yeah. Like, I have no idea what to guess he was doing during that time, but it seems like potentially an interesting moment for someone to explore...
