@Charcoal_cat Exactly, if not for Suisui then Jiran has no reason to associate with Linghan or even give him the time of day. In the novel Suisui was the reason Jiran kept in contact with Linghan even without memories of the past the connection/feelings are still there. Linghan used Suisui as an excuse to constantly stay in contact and eventually love bloomed again cause in Jirans heart he still loved Linghan despite everything that happened, Love for someone doesn't just disappear when you want it to even if they hurt you.
