Actually, the Moon girl had long ago seen through the city boy's thoughts.

"Do you want to be a person?"

"Want!! So much want! I think of it day and night!" the city boy said eagerly.

"All right!" the Moon girl finally showed her true colors —

"Do you know why I brought you to the Moon?" the Moon girl asked the Earth boy.

"How could I know the purpose of you bringing me to the Moon?" the Earth boy countered the Moon girl.

"I've chosen you! Out of the countless boys on Earth, I've picked you as my future husband!"

The Moon girl's words left the city boy's head spinning: "This… this… this how could it be possible? You're a person from space, I'm an ordinary mortal on Earth. One in heaven, one on earth—can we marry? Besides, you're already 180,000 years old, while I'm still under twenty."

"If I were to become your groom, wouldn't that be a sensational tale? Besides, I already have a girlfriend on Earth..."

"Do you think you can still return to Earth? You are the eleventh man I have chosen; I will not allow you to ever return to Earth in this life or the next—you must follow me and be with me."

"Every ten thousand years I select a boy from your Earth to be my man; although I am 180,000 years old, my appearance forever looks like a beautiful nineteen‑year‑old girl, my heart forever remains that of a maiden, my youth eternal..."

"What, your youth is eternal? I'm the eleventh chosen man? What about those other men?"

The city boy asked in terror.

"Dead!"

"Dead?"

"How did they die?"

"Died of greed!"

"Yes, died of greed."

"On our Earth, people only die of old age, illness, or as punishment for great evil; we've never heard of dying from greed."

The city boy said.

"You're young and inexperienced. People on Earth could originally live to a hundred, but each is too greedy—greed for wealth, lust, office—so the word 'greed' kills them; they cannot die a natural death, but meet an early end in the underworld."

"Then the ten men you selected from Earth, you say they are greedy. What is there in the Moon Palace to be greedy for?"

The city boy said.

"In our Moon Palace, there is much to be greedy for."

"You see jewels everywhere; even a pebble you pick up and take to Earth is worth more than gold."

"Even the ugliest girl on our Moon, if she went to Earth for a beauty contest, would make all the earthly beauties pale in comparison; and our Moon's horse‑keeper, if taken to Earth, would become the top leader on Huaguo Shan."

"Inside the palace it's modest, but outside it's significant."

"The ten men I previously chose from Earth were each either a wealth‑wolf, a lust‑wolf, or a corrupt official. I regret having misjudged and married the wrong ones. I chose you as my future husband after long observation; my love for you has reason..."
