She leaned over, stole a sweet kiss goodnight from him and went back to bed. THE END.
MY SHIP DID SAIL! When I saw comments about how some were feeling bad for Yuwen Yong, I thought it was because Qing Suo chose to be with Chang Gong in the end, but I'm so glad it's not! The moment of reveal when Qing Suo, delirious in bed from the pain, hallucinating and thought she saw Yuwen Yong at her bedside instead of Chang Gong. When she reached out her hand and said "YONG" I was like YEEESSS!! SQUEEAALL! SHE LOVES HIM!! SHE LOVES YUWEN YONG!!! I will admit I got teary watching her profess her love and wanting desperately to be with him because she thought she was on her last breath. It was only at her deathbed that she realises who she truly loves. Another great moment was when Yuwen Yong realised that Qing Suo actually does love him. The revelation on his face when he saw the belt with the stitched phrase that Qing Suo loves him and only chose to leave with Chang Gong to save him was the best! It was what he needed. I'm sure he doesn't truly know how Qing Suo feels about him. He was fine to just love her on his own as long as she stayed with him. But to know that the woman he loves so dearly loves him in return would have been an amazing discovery for him. I am so happy for him. He really deserves this happiness after his long journey of steadfastly unwaveringly loving Qing Suo.
I really loved Episode 49, the supposed Epilogue for Yuwen Yong, because it was filled with scenes of my favourite couple only. When I saw it, I was thinking, oh geez, I should have gone straight to this episode and saved myself fast forwarding through 47 episodes. But then realised I would have missed out on a lot of other moments between YY and QS.
