#also i think it's interesting that the book from WXS's pov describes BCF with this “one glimpse”...

在他过去看上一看的时候,也有一个念头在心里闪过:会不会正好有个江湖卖武的美丽女子,正在比武招亲,这一瞥就定了情,就像戏台上演的一般? When he went over to take a look at what he could, a thought flashed through his mind: could there just happen to be a beautiful woman of the jianghu who knew martial arts, who just happened to be seeking a husband through a martial arts competition? With one glimpse, their love would be true - just like the stories told in stage plays.
...
王小石却在一瞥中呆住了。 Yet Wang Xiaoshi, within the moment of this one glimpse, was stunned. 他从来没有见过这么美的男子。 He had never seen a man as beautiful as this before. 那薄刀似的柳眉一起一伏间,有说不尽的俊俏,阳光透过遮阳帽的葵叶缝隙照在脸上,一明一暗,白似美玉,黯影柔倩。就这么一刹那,那人已皱了皱眉,不耐烦地按下席帽,绕了过去,看起来,正似在找什么人。 Between the rise and fall of those thin, knife-like brows that were arched as if long and slender willow branches - lay an indescribable and endless elegance. Sunlight bled through the crevices of the sun hat's mallow leaves to shine upon his face, at once both illuminated and obscured: as bright and pale as fine jade, whilst also gentled and made handsome by dark shadow. Such a split second passed, and that man creased his brow thereafter, impatiently pressing his woven hat down before making his way around. He seemed, currently, to be looking for someone.
