Chapter 130
Snow-chan:
I went through the chapter scans and translation again and found another bit that made me stop and re-read it:
Show content
--- Quote ---Yuuko: ...If you have your left eye back, you won't be a vampire anymore. That is perhaps more cruel than not being about to turn back to how you were before. Under your circumstances.
--- End quote ---
What circumstances? The knowledge that for a while he had to live on someone else's blood? That doesn't make sense in that place. Is it about his lifespan then and its possible shortening (or aging) once he is not a vampire anymore?

Show contentI think it is the fact that in order for him to "return" to how he was before, he has to steal the eye back from Syaoran, who is someone he has cared for and still does for such a long time.
Also, this is just what I think...
Show contentI also really like that one little panel they show when Fai is talking to Yuuko, it's of Kurogane and Syaoran just standing there looking out into the distance. I think it says a lot, sort of mirroring how lonely each of them must feel right now, Syaoran because of that whole discussion he had with Mokona in chapter 129, and Kurogane because he's just done sommething so life changing and involved himself so much only to have that reaction from Fai... Yuuko told him what would happen and I am sure he mentally prepared himself for such a reaction on Fai's part... I don't never expected anything like that (Fai calling him by his full name). All the preparation in the world couldn't make something like that not feel like a shot through the heart.
EDIT This is the panel:
Tatasenko:
i think that Fai called Kurogane by his full name to tortured him,to make him pay for what he has done to him  :dodge::
He forced him to live against his will,and the fact that Fai is putting some distance between them is a way to say to kurogane that he has gone too far...
Fai's smile is moreover rather sadistic,especially with this bandage on his left eye which reminds to Kurogane all the suffering that Fai was obliged to endure because of his selfish attitude  :sad5:
ishiyaki:

Show contentWell, I think this chapter makes it quite obvious that the reason Fai wishes to put some distance between himself and Kurogane is that the two of them have gotten all too close, not because he really is angry with him.
Anyway... Lovely, lovely chapter! Alike many others, I'm starting to like Sakura more and more for every chapter nowadays. I'm so anxious to see where the mentioning of Ashura is going, what Yuuko meant with what she said about un-vampiring, etc. Also, I want Mokona to cuddle with more people! ^^ I can't decide what's cuter, Mokona glomping Kamui (no, I'm not over that one yet. How many chapters ago was that, again?) or Syaoran patting Mokona.
