In the popular Chinese anime Fox Spirit Matchmaker: Red-Moon Pact, fans have been eagerly following the story of Lu Jianwen and Yan Rushan. The question on everyone’s mind is: did they finally fall in love?

The Moment of Connection

In a pivotal scene, Yan Rushan is being taken away to serve his sentence. Lu Jianwen suddenly stops the carriage, demanding to ask Yan Rushan some questions. She instructs him to only answer her questions and say nothing else. Through a series of carefully crafted questions, Lu Jianwen guides Yan Rushan into confessing his feelings. He eventually declares, “I, Yan Rushan, swear to share my life with Lu Jianwen, and I will never regret it.”

This moment is both touching and significant. It’s a clear declaration of Yan Rushan’s feelings for Lu Jianwen, cementing their bond. Lu Jianwen watches him leave with a mix of sorrow and determination, aware of his inherent goodness despite his ignorance of human rules. Regardless of how many years Yan Rushan must serve, Lu Jianwen is resolute in waiting for his return.

The Insight of Tu Shan Rongrong

Tu Shan Rongrong, a character who observes this budding romance, feels a sense of comfort and satisfaction. She wonders if her disciple, Lu Jianwen, truly understands her own feelings. This adds an extra layer of depth to the narrative, as we see the mentor’s perspective on the developing relationship.

The story further unfolds under the bitter love tree, where Tu Shan Rongrong questions Lu Jianwen about why she doesn’t confess her feelings openly. According to Tu Shan Honghong, Lu Jianwen doesn’t want Yan Rushan to know about her hardships. However, for Lu Jianwen, these hardships are not bitter but sweet, as they are intertwined with her love for Yan Rushan.
