  Chapter9

  In the afternoon, the sky was a brilliant blue, and the sun shone through the clouds, its rays sparkling in the white clouds. In front of the Shengyu school gate, pots of fresh flowers basked in the sunlight, emitting fragrance.

  Students of Shengyu come and go.

  Xiaomi walked out of the school gate, took out her phone to check the time, it was 5:30. Fortunately, Yin Tao ordered her not to be late and must arrive at "Xin Xin" before 6 o'clock, where she would meet his friend. "Xin Xin" is about a 15-minute walk from the school gate, so she didn't need to rush and could just walk slowly over there.

  Today was quite breezy.

  In the scorching summer, wind is the best gift from nature. No matter how hot the sun is, as long as there's wind, even if you're sweating, it will be blown away and feel exceptionally cool.

  Xiaomi held a silver-white umbrella and strolled leisurely on the sidewalk.

  By the roadside, the glass of the store was shining brightly under the sunlight. She couldn't help but stop and look at the display window of the boutique. Wow, those cute little decorations! Among them, there was a green ceramic frog piggy bank, two frogs smiling sweetly and leaning against each other, with a big red bow on the mother frog's head. Hehe, they looked too happy, and Xiaomi couldn't help but smile along with them, her mood becoming as bright as the sunlight.

  Her gaze left the piggy bank and suddenly her eyes widened as she spotted a plush angel doll on the top right of the display window!

  White angel.

  A pair of white wings behind him.

  Those wings were made of some material that seemed like crystal, thin as cicada wings, crystal clear and translucent, with a soft luster.

  She stared blankly at the pure white cloth angel doll in the window display.

  Her fingers unconsciously caressed the glass, her fingertips seemingly able to pass through the glass and gently touch the angel's wings.

  The plush angel was suddenly taken away by the salesgirl.

  Xiaomi hastily tiptoed to peek through the window into the store, only to see the salesgirl put the plush angel doll into a delicate paper bag and hand it over with a smile to a boy wearing a white shirt with his back to her.

  She sighed dejectedly.

  Her fingers were still in the same position, but the plush angel was gone. A hollow feeling of loss echoed in her heart, and she faintly heard the store door open, with the boy in a white shirt walking out with a paper bag in hand.

  The glass of the window was shining like a mirror under the sunlight on summer days.

  Xiaomi is facing the showcase window.

  The figure of a man wearing a white shirt is reflected in the glass window like a mirror.

  He is holding a paper bag in his right hand.

  His shirt was white as if it had a faint glow.

  He walked over to a white BMW parked by the side of the road and opened the door.

  He squeezed the paper bag in his hand.

  He smiled with his head down.

  His smile——

  In the glass showcase

  At Xiaomi's fingertips

  Gently——

  Soft as a ray of light

  Blossoming...

  The world suddenly became so quiet.

  All things have lost their voice.

  Vehicles and pedestrians come and go on the street.

  But all I could hear was silence. No breathing, no heartbeat, only the blood vessels in my temples pulsating "thump, thump, thump, thump".

  Suddenly the sky and earth were vast.

  She stood still in front of the window, very small and tiny.

  A white BMW started moving, on the bustling street, slowly passing by her side, less than three meters away from that window, just like that time on the quiet mountain road.

  Under the scorching sun.

  Xiaomi slowly turned around.

  Her lips were devoid of even a hint of color, pale to the point of being shocking.

  Yes ——

  What about him?

  Is it him, right?!

  The white horse gradually disappeared in front of the street, and was slowly submerged by the numerous vehicles.

  Suddenly——

  Xiaomi ran in the direction where the white BMW disappeared!

  The sound of running on the street!

  The people in the line turned around in surprise.

  All I saw was a girl running desperately on the pedestrian path, her short hair blown messy by the wind, and her white skirt fluttering in the air!

  She waved her arms desperately!

  Her face turned bright red!

  As if relying solely on instinct, she sprinted past one pedestrian after another, the whizzing wind also causing people to dodge out of her way.

  She runs so fast!

  She ran on the outermost part of the sidewalk, using all her strength to run, she wanted to catch up with that car, she wanted to catch up with that car!

  The next day——

  Is it you?

  Is it you? Tomorrow! Bae Tomorrow!!

  Is that you?

  Bái Yǎo!

  The wind blows wildly on her face, and her running footsteps also start to go wild. The sun shines brightly, making the ground a dazzling white, she can't see or hear anything!

  "Flute———"

  The screeching of brakes and the shrill sound of horns pierced the air.

  The driver slammed on the brakes and stuck his head out of the window, yelling at the girl running wildly in the middle of the street: "Are you trying to get yourself killed?! You want to die, but don't take me with you!"

  Vehicles were in chaos.

  Xiaomi stood stupidly among the countless vehicles, her hair stuck to her face in a mess of sweat. She couldn't hear what the driver was yelling, only that in her line of sight, the last bit of the white BMW's shadow had also disappeared.

  Everything has disappeared...

  She walked back onto the sidewalk in a daze.

  The scorching sun of midsummer still shone fiercely, her sweat soaked through the back of her shirt, and as the breeze blew gently, she felt cool waves wash over her.

  Walked dazedly.

  One by one, passersby walked by her side, but they were all strangers, with no connection to her whatsoever.

  She stood still, a quiet emptiness in her heart. In the scorching sunlight, she suddenly felt her body slide down, leaning against the audio store's window, and sat on the pavement like that. Hugging her knees, she put her head on her legs' knees, staring blankly at the street where cars came and went.

  Then——

  Tears streamed down her cheeks.

  A song floated out of the speakers in a music store and drifted gently through the afternoon streets.

  “……

  Have you really forgotten your first love?

  Suppose one day

  You met someone who looks exactly like him

  Is he really him?

  Is it possible?

  Is this the tolerance of fate or

  Another ill-intentioned joke

  ……”

  In the afternoon, on the pedestrian path, Xiao Mi sat stupidly on the ground in front of the audio store, with pairs of passersby's feet passing by, her white skirt like a flower petal that had lost its blood.

  She cried.

  Tears spread wildly across her cheeks.

  “……

  If this is the final outcome

  Why can't I forget you

  Time has changed us we said goodbye to simplicity

  If reuniting is impossible, then losing each other is what makes it eternal.

  Punishing my sincerity is because I am too naive

  Am I going to spend my whole life like this?

  My kiss is destined to never reach the one I love

  Been waiting for you from the very beginning until now

  It's also impossible for them to fall together

  ……”

  Bustling streets.

  In front of the audio store window, between two loudspeakers blasting music, Xiao Mi burst into tears.

  At this moment, she would rather let the whole world hear her crying.

  If the whole world can hear her crying, then he can also hear it, right?

  Tears soaked her cheeks.

  She burst into tears.

  "Why are you crying? Is there something I can help with?" A soft voice came from above Xiaomiao's head as she cried.

  Then there was a slender figure lightly crouching down.

  A white handkerchief.

  The handkerchief was placed in Xiaomi's hands, and that tall figure shaded her from the scorching sunlight like a tree.

  This sound...

  It feels like I've been in a long, long dream...

  Suffocating——

  Xiaomi slowly slowly slowly...

  Lift your head.

  Pai You saw a tear-stained, disheveled face. The girl's face was slightly red and swollen from crying, her nose was puffy, and her eyes were also puffy.

  When he returned after parking his car, he saw the girl leaning against the audio store's window and crying.

  She wept so sorrowfully that her pure white dress had been stained by the dirty bricks on the street. She cried without any reserve, just like Alice who got lost in a fairy tale.

  She lifted her head in tears.

  Eyes full of sparkling starry tears.

  Pei You's heart was struck with a "thud", and he suddenly froze, forgetting what to say. At this moment, the girl in white suddenly opened her eyes wide in shock -

  "Tomorrow!"

  She clutched him tightly to her, lifted up her face, and tears streamed down her cheeks and chin onto his white shirt.

  "Tomorrow!!"

  She sobbed uncontrollably, her face streaming with tears, yet her eyes shone incredibly brightly, as if a thousand torches were burning at the bottom of them. She cried out a very strange name, her arms wrapped tightly around him, holding him so tightly it was as if she was embracing him with her entire life.

  Pei You was stunned.

  He stood dazed in her arms, his head bowed as he gazed at her tear-stained face. The crystal tears were like a scattering of stardust, and the starry tears soaked through his shirt, seeping into his skin, scorching hot.

  The sun was shining brightly that day.

  Passersby kept looking at him and her on the sidewalk.

  The boy looks so gentle.

  The girl cried like a spirit.

  She and he hugged each other.

  The wind blows gently.

  Music floats gently in the air.

  A beautiful and refreshing scene.

  The sunshine sparkled on her and him like a thousand stars.

  Until a flaxen-haired boy burst out of the crowd in astonishment, bellowing: "Hey! What are you doing?!"

  Inside Xinxin Hotel.

  The waiters curiously sneaked a peek at the table by the window.

  Is white popular this year?

  A handsome young man, dressed in a white shirt, with a gentle smile that has captivated many female waitresses.

  Across from him was a flaxen-haired boy with fine diamonds on the bridge of his nose, handsome to the point of being dazzling. The flaxen-haired boy also wore a white dress shirt, the subtle texture of which was elegant and refined, but at this moment he had pursed his lips tightly, his face taut, his entire body shrouded in an intimidating low pressure.

  Beside the young man in linen was a girl in a white dress, leaning against the floor-to-ceiling window. The sunlight surrounded her, making her face indistinct, and her short hair shone with a lovely luster in the jumping sunbeams.

  Since they came in, no one has spoken to each other.

  The atmosphere is eerily quiet.

  "Ahem," Pei You rubbed his nose and smiled, trying to break the awkward silence. "Yao, aren't you going to introduce us?"

  Yin Tang's fingers were stiff and his lips were slightly pale.

  He couldn't forget the scene he had just seen, and Xiaomi was tearfully embracing Pei You. She seemed to have forgotten everything in her madness of joy and despair, an expression he had never seen before.

  "Wow!"

  Pei You saw him being cold and silent, couldn't help but smile wryly, knowing that this kid was still sulking. He turned to the little millet by the window and smiled:

  "Hello, are you Xiao Mi?"

  Xiaomi stared blankly at him.

  Her eyes seemed to have a distracted soul, staring at him on their own, her breathing was very light, as if he were fragile foam that would shatter with just one strong breath.

  Yin Tang glared at Xiao Mi, his stiff fingers clenched into fists on his legs, the bones of his fingers pale and blue. He didn't know why she was like this, why she had to stare at him with such an expression! He wished he could shake her shoulders and force her to withdraw her gaze!

  She can only look at him alone!

  But she gazed at Pei You with such a focused and entranced expression.

  Yin Tangyao's body gradually stiffened and turned cold.

  The heart suddenly cramped with a sharp pain, like being pricked by needles, slowly spreading throughout the body.

  Pei You slightly furrowed his brow, lowered his head, coughed softly, picked up the paper bag beside him, raised his head again, and smiled faintly:

  "I heard you like angels, so I bought this for you as a gift, hope you like it."

  Xiaomi opened the paper bag.

  A pure white cloth angel, with a pair of crystal clear wings behind her back. Her fingers lightly touched the wings below, feeling cool and trembling slightly, as if suddenly waking up from a dream.

  "Thank you."

  She said softly to Pei You.

  "Hehe, you're the girl Yaw likes, which means you're my friend now." Pei You smiled at Yin Tao Yaw's icy face. "This is the first time he's brought a girl to meet me. Xiao Mi, although Yaw can be stubborn and unreasonable at times, but actually, he's a lovely and simple kid. If you're angry with him, just let him suffer a bit, don't really hurt him."

  "That's enough! Shut up!"

  Yin Tangyao let out a low growl and slammed his fist onto the dinner table, causing the people around him, including the waiter and other customers, to look over in shock.

  Pei You rubbed his nose and forced a smile.

  Xiaomi was startled awake by Yintang Yao's angry voice, she turned her head to look at him in a panic. His expression was furious, his lips tightly pursed. Looking at him, she suddenly could feel the anger and pain he was feeling at that moment.

  ……

  "Why be with Yao?" Yun Zhao Man asked in a low voice.

  "Because I want to give him happiness." Xiao Mi looked straight into her eyes, her gaze as clear and transparent as a stream, "I want to give him the most, most happiness, let him become the happiest person in the world."

  ……

  This was what she had said just a short while ago, and her words still lingered in his ears. Yet, the pain she brought him was real?

  But ——

  She looked at the boy in a white shirt with a bewildered mind. Who is he, who is he after all, how can he look so similar! Is it Yu again reborn? Is he back by her side again? However, why does he seem to not recognize her at all, as if it's their first meeting.

  She stared at him blankly.

  No...

  Not...

  That smile, that voice, that demeanor...

  Although it has penetrated into his bones, he still isn't one.

  He is not Yan.

  Xiaomi took a deep breath, calming herself down, and bowed to Pei You: "Sorry, I was too rash earlier." She knew that her actions had already hurt Yin Tangyao and caused trouble for his friends.

  "You've got the wrong person, haven't you?"

  It is.

  "Haha, you look very similar?"

  "... is." She said dazedly, "Figure, appearance, voice, manner... all very similar." Even the small action of touching her nose was exactly the same, before she always laughed and said 'Hey, you learned to touch your nose like Chu Liu Xiang, it's really quite similar'.

  Pei You smiled and said: "You've made me want to meet him too, really so similar."

  "He... is already gone..."

  Xiaomi took a light breath, her voice very soft and quiet.

  The atmosphere suddenly became strange again.

  Yin Tangyao's lips gradually turned white and purple.

  His body stiffened, and he suddenly realized that he didn't understand Xiaomi at all. Her voice was so soft, yet it felt like a heavy hammer hitting his heart, the emotions in her voice made him jealous to the point of wanting to kill!

  Today, he deliberately put on that white shirt. She said that when he wore it, it would be the best-looking white shirt in the world. However, she didn't even glance at him, not even a single look.

  The heart is getting more and more severe pain.

  She clenched her fists and ignored the pain that was about to tear him apart. Even if it killed her, she wouldn't turn around to look at him again.

  "Sorry."

  Pei You rubbed his nose and said with a bitter smile.

  "It's okay."

  Xiaomi gazed quietly at him. Tomorrow, do you believe that there is actually someone in the world who is so similar to you? It must be because I miss you too much, that's why I can see you again.

  Bai You took another look at Yoon Tae-oh, whose breath was getting colder and colder, and silently sighed. He stretched out his right hand to Xiao Mi and smiled, saying:

  "Then let me introduce myself, I am Yao's friend."

  Xiaomi grasped his hand:

  "Hello."

  "I hope to see you often in the future, I'm Pei You."

  Outside the glass window, the sun is tinged with a hint of blood color.

  Cars come and go on the street.

  The hotel is bustling with people.

  The waiter walked back and forth serving dishes.

  Xiaomi's head buzzed loudly, and a white mist appeared in front of her eyes. She opened her mouth wide and said with a trembling voice:

  "You - you're called -"

  "I am Baeu." He didn't know what happened again, only feeling her hand tightly grasping his own, with a shocking astonishment in her eyes.

  "Pei You? ! Excellent You? !"

  In the blink of an eye, she was shocked and trembling. Didn't they say that Pei You died young?! How could... But a wave of piercing sorrow suddenly made her understand something, it should have occurred to her earlier, why they looked so alike, why she saw him, why she sat in front of him. Yu, Yu, you didn't die, did you? You've been looking for him all along, you're with me, you saw him, and he also saw him, right?!

  "Yes, excellent."

  "Is it you..." Tears began to flow down her face again, she cried and couldn't help but laugh, "Is it really you?"

  Pei You was bewildered and asked: "What's going on?"

  "The next day..."

  "Who?"

  "Pei Ao......" For a moment, she became incoherent, her lips full of bitter tears, should be smiling, but why were there only tears on her face. "...Do you know Pei Ao?"

  "Who is Bae Woo?" This name sounds similar to his, Bae U and Bae Woo, together it's the pronunciation of "excellent".

  "Don't you know Pei Ao?!" Xiao Mi was stunned, and suddenly felt a chill run through her body. "You've never heard of Pei Ao before?!"

  "Who is he after all? Should I know him?"

  She closed her eyes.

  Tears flowed slowly.

  The next day...

  That person seemed as if he had never heard of you.

  A sudden surge of inexplicable unease rose in Pei You's heart, he furrowed his brow and stared at her intently: "Tell me, who is Pei Ao, and why do you think I should know?"

  He held her hand.

  He gazed at her.

  She also shed tears looking at him.

  It seems as if there are only two people in this world, Pei You and Xiao Mi, and everyone else is redundant.

  Yin Tangyao sprang up from his seat with a "whoosh", and with a loud "clang" he kicked over his own chair!

  The huge noise made everyone look over.

  He strode towards the hotel entrance, his proud back straight as a pen, and a chilling aura made the waiters and guests who passed by him shiver without feeling cold.

  However—

  No one saw that his lips had turned purple with pain. Because of the intense heartache, he couldn't bear to look or listen anymore; he wouldn't allow himself to be so weak and flustered in front of her.

  Night falls on the earth.

  Due to the summer vacation, the mountain road in front of Fengyuan dormitory seems particularly quiet. The roadside is lined with dense trees, and every thirty meters or so, there is a tall street lamp, but the dim yellow light cannot penetrate the lush branches, and the roadside is still eerily dark.

  The rhododendron blooming on the mountain wall has a strange beauty in the dark night.

  The mountain road led to a quiet valley, filled with wild grasses and untended trees. The night wind whistled through the valley, sounding like low sobbing moans.

  Xiaomi walked quietly on the mountain road.

  On the road, there was only her lonely figure. The gentle breeze blew, and her short hair was disheveled and hit her eyes. Under the dim streetlights, her white skirt seemed like thin, yellowish jasmine petals.

  She can't think of anything else.

  From the moment she saw Pei You, her world seemed to have exploded into millions of pieces in an instant, and her mind was a complete blank. Although she knew he wasn't, although she knew it was just someone who looked very similar, yet, she still couldn't wake up from that shock and astonishment.

  She walked silently and slowly, passing by a street lamp. Under the street lamp, there seemed to be a tall figure, but she seemed to be absent-minded and didn't see it, walking past its side.

  Rice

  Low voice.

  She froze, slowly turned around, and stared into a pair of pitch-black eyes. Under the streetlight, the man's expression had a deep sadness, and he was actually Zheng Haoyang.

  "...you...haven't gone home yet?"

  Xiaomi stood in front of Zheng Haoyang, asking him dazedly. As the only son of his family, his parents spoiled him a lot, and she thought he would definitely rush back home as soon as he was on vacation.

  Zheng Haoyang smiled wryly: "I've always been here, living in Feng San. When I go to the cafeteria for meals, you often run into me. How come you've never noticed before?"

  "Sorry," she said softly.

  His eyes flashed with a deep light: "Did I hear that wrong? You actually apologized to me. I thought you would scold me and tell me to leave, the farther away from you the better." From childhood to adulthood, she had always disliked him, disliking how he always appeared in front of her, and many times he felt that perhaps she wished there was no one named Zheng Haoyang in this world.

  Xiaomi looked at him for a while and said in a low voice: "I'm very tired today." After that, she continued walking towards the fifth dormitory of Feng.

  "What happened?"

  Zheng Haoyang stepped in front of her and gazed at her intensely.

  "It has nothing to do with you."

  She lowered her head and tried to walk past him.

  He grasped her hand, his voice filled with anguish: "I've been waiting for you here for three hours! What do you mean by saying I have nothing to do with you? In all of Shengyu, the only one who has anything to do with your past is me!"

  "I told you it has nothing to do with you! It doesn't matter now, it won't matter in the future, and it didn't matter in the past either!" Xiao Mi suppressed the turmoil in her heart and shouted at him wildly.

  Zheng Haoyang painfully grasped her:

  "Rice!"

  She closed her eyes in distress, took a deep breath, and tried to calm down: "Sorry, I'm really upset." She pulled her hand out of his palm.

  Yin Tangyao has been looking for me.

  "What?" She looked up in surprise.

  "He called me in the evening and asked me to tell him about things from before." Zheng Haoyang said to her, "So I've been waiting for you here, wanting to know what happened after all?"

  The night sky is pitch black without stars.

  The dim yellow light spilled down.

  The tree shade shrouds the mountain road in quiet darkness.

  Xiaomi stared blankly at Zheng Haoyang, the wind gently lifting the hem of her skirt, her slender figure seemingly insubstantial in the darkness.

  "Is he looking for you?"

  She asked again in a daze.

  "Yes, on the phone, Yoon Tae-oh's emotions seemed unstable, he 'ordered' me to tell him everything about your past."

  "Did you tell him?" She gasped for a moment.

  Zheng Haoyang carefully observed her expression, and said in a low voice: "No." He understood that if he told Yin Tangyao the reason why Xiao Mi came to Sheng Yu, then she would really hate him for a long time, or perhaps forever, and would never forgive him.

  She closed her eyes, and her eyelashes trembled slightly:

  "Thank you."

  "But it's impossible to keep it hidden forever, Yoon Tae-oh will find out someday."

  "No," she shook her head vigorously, her lips pale. "He won't know as long as I don't tell him, as long as you don't tell him."

  "How long can you keep this up?"

  "How long can I deceive is how long." Her eyes were stubborn, with a reckless expression.

  "I don't know what happened, but Yintang Yao has already started to suspect. He wants to know about your past, and he even threatened that if I didn't tell him tonight, he would kill me! Zheng Haoyang grasped her shoulder with a painful expression, "Xiaomi, if he really wants to know, you can't hide it from him! As long as he asks around in Qingyuan, he'll find out about your past!"

  She was so shocked that she froze in place.

  "Xiaomi, wake up, okay?" Zheng Hao Yang shook her shoulders. "He's not Ya, even if he has Ya's heart, he's still not Ya!"

  He is.

  She bit her lip tightly.

  "No! He is YIN TAO YAO, not BAEK WOO!" Zheng Hao Yang's voice growled in the night wind, with a sharp glint in his dark eyes. "Can you please wake up?! His name is YIN...TAO...YAO!!"

  "He is! He is! He is!"

  Xiaomi covered her ears and screamed desperately.

  "Are you crazy?! Have you really gone mad?! What does he have that resembles Xiao?! It's just a heart, after all! What if Xiao had also donated his liver? What if he had also donated his kidneys? What if he had also donated his bone marrow? Yes, Xiao has even donated blood, hasn't he?! Why don't you go and find out who is using Xiao's blood?! Why don't you go?!" Zheng Haoyang couldn't bear it anymore and roared at her.

  "Shut up!"

  She used all her strength to shout at him, her voice piercing the night sky, and the trees by the road swayed with a rustling sound. Then she began to tremble, trembling as she struggled free from his grasp, trembling as she backed away.

  In the quiet night color.

  Her body was shaking like a sick child.

  She stepped back, trembling.

  Two steps.

  Three steps.

  The night wind blows, and the trees along the mountain road rustle. Her face is deathly pale, but her voice is even lighter than the night wind:

  "What if... he's not the one... what should I do?"

  Zheng Haoyang stared at her in shock:

  "Xiaomi..."

  In Xiaomi's eyes there was a desolation like night fog, her skirt was white and transparent, she seemed to be about to disappear into the night at any moment.

  "If there were no tomorrow in this world, would I be left all alone?"

  Her voice is soft.

  A soft voice in the quiet night wind.

  "If this world is left with only emptiness and me, then where should I go?"

  Zheng Haoyang suddenly thought of the scar on her wrist, and his eyes couldn't help but dim.

  Xiaomi took a deep breath, and then a hollow smile appeared on her face: "So you see, Xiao wouldn't bear to leave me alone, he left his heart with me. Although he's gone, but he's still with me."

  "Xiaomi..."

  "And," she said with a smile, her lips trembling slightly, "Hao Yang, you know that I used to be very spoiled and bad. When he was around, I would always scold him, not even willing to give him an extra bite of dessert. So, he won't be willing to leave like this either. I want to make up for what I owed him in the past by giving it back to him many times over."

  Zheng Haoyang's heart was filled with pain.

  He should have continued scolding her, making her realize how absurd and ridiculous her behavior was, but he was heartbroken and couldn't go on.

  "...But if Yoon Tae-oh knew you were just doing it for your heart..."

  "Please, Haoyang," she bit her lip. "Don't tell Yintao, don't let him know. If he finds out, he'll get angry and won't speak to me again. What can I do then?"

  Zheng Haoyang gazed at her for a long time, his eyes darker than the night.

  "......Alright, I promise you."

  A faint smile bloomed on Xiaomi's face as she smiled at him in the darkness.

  "Thank you."

  This was the first time Zheng Haoyang saw her smile at him like that, previously such smiles all belonged to Yan. She finally smiled at him, but why did he still feel a deep sadness in his heart.

  The night is quiet, the streetlights are dim yellow, and the Rhododendron is in full bloom on the mountain wall. The bright pink color of the blooming flowers looks eerily beautiful in the dark night.

  Under the streetlight.

  Xiaomi suddenly seemed to have heard some kind of sound.

  The rustling of leaves is like the turmoil of one's heart.

  She held her breath and gazed into the distance at the pitch-black tree shadows.

  The night wind blows from the valley.

  The branches rustled.

  In a large area of rustling tree shadows, there seems to be an icy and lonely figure. Yin Tao Yue stands there as if he has been standing for a very long time, so far away that it's like an entire century. The leaves above his head gently sway, as if they are within reach of a nightmare.

  He stood stiffly.

  There is a gentle breeze by my ear.

  Suddenly it was like a thunderclap on a pitch-black night!

  The leaves rustled wildly.

  In the dense black shadow, Yin Tao's fingers were icy cold, and the blood in his body was completely frozen. He thought he would die, but the sharp pain of his heart beating told him that he was still alive, this was not a nightmare, everything he heard was true.

  Night breeze...

  A gentle breeze blew between her and him...

  She saw him.

  She was under the dim street lamp.

  He is in the dark tree shadow.

  She was shocked beyond words.

  The diamond on his nose wing suddenly flashed out a cold light as sharp as a knife.

  Zheng Haoyang was also stunned, he looked around at the small millet, she stood in shock, her eyes full of panic, and then looked at Yin Daoye under the tree shadow, cold and isolated, he seemed to have merged into the darkness of the night.

  After all, it's still impossible to hide.

  Zheng Haoyang stretched out his hand to comfort her by putting it on her shoulder, but his hand stopped in mid-air as he stared blankly at Yin Tangyao, whose eyes didn't even have him in them.

  The sharp edge of the eagle-like eyes gradually dimmed.

  It's just like a play, whether it's the beginning, the interlude or the end, there is no room for him to participate.

  I don't know how long it's been.

  Zheng Haoyang walked silently away.

  On the mountain path, only Xiao Mi and Yin Tang Yao stood afar, gazing at each other.

  The night is so quiet.

  The dormitory building of Maple Five at the end of the mountain road was shining with scattered starlight.

  Xiaomi slowly walked closer to Yin Tao, her footsteps slightly trembling. The leaves on the mountain road rustled disorderly as she approached him, and the more she got close to him, the more she felt the oppressive chill emanating from his body.

  She bit her lip and said in a trembling voice:

  "You..."

  She didn't know how much he had heard, but in the darkness, his icy and gloomy breath made her heart sink continuously.

  Yin Tangyao's white shirt seemed like a fragile light in the dead of night, he didn't speak, his lips were pursed tightly, and a faint pale blue color appeared.

  She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and then another one:

  "Did you... all hear that?"

  His eyes were icy cold:

  "You hope I never hear it again, right?"

  "I..."

  "Am I just a fool in your eyes, right?" The summer night wind was as cold as the severe winter, his heart was pierced by the sharp pain of the needle, one stitch at a time. He didn't let his voice reveal any emotions, he didn't want to appear like a fool in front of her again.

  Xiaomi was out of breath, her internal organs were all churning, she wanted to explain something in a panic, opened her mouth, but couldn't say anything.

  Yin Tang Yao coldly stared at her:

  "Say it, tell me it was just a misunderstanding, I just misheard."

  “……”

  "Why won't you speak?" Yin Tangyao glared at her, taking a few steps forward, pinching her chin and lifting her face up. "Aren't you going to deceive me forever? Come on, come and deceive me some more, keep deceiving me for the rest of my life! You scoundrel!!"

  Xiaomi cried.

  Tears streamed down her cheeks and onto the back of his hand.

  Yin Tangyao looked at her starry tears, hooked the corner of his lips: "On that birthday, you also cried. Recently, you seem to like crying a lot... How can there be so many tears? ... Tell me, who are these tears for?"

  Xiaomi's face was wet with tears.

  She trembled with her eyes closed.

  Eyelashes glisten with tears.

  "I thought your tears were because of me, so I was flustered and stupid," Yoon Tae-oh's fingers gradually tightened. "You must have found it very amusing, right? In your eyes, I've always been laughable, right?"

  "No, no!"

  She cried and shook her head, tears streaming down wildly.

  "I'm sorry..."

  Her eyes were filled with panic, guilt and helplessness, she cried out:

  "I'm sorry......I'm sorry......"

  She cried so sorrowfully, tears streaming down onto his hand, his heart felt as if it had been run over by a wheel, a sharp pain, his lips hurt to the point of turning purple.

  Yin Tangyao took a light breath in.

  His back was straight as a pen, he didn't let his body tremble in the slightest.

  "'Sorry'? What do you have to be sorry for? You ran 10,000 meters for me, wrote papers for me, found diamonds for me, reviewed lessons for me, made longevity noodles for me, and bought white shirts for me. You treated me like an angel, what do you have to be sorry for?"

  Xiaomi burst into tears, at this moment, she truly knew she had done wrong.

  She is not an angel.

  She is an out-and-out devil.

  She approached him with ulterior motives, telling herself she just wanted to make him happy and bring him joy, as innocent and kind as an angel. But that was all a lie... She was the most selfish person under heaven, for Yun, for being able to be by Yun's side, she had never cared about Yin Tao Yao. She didn't care about his cruelty, didn't care about his viciousness, because she had never cared about him at all. She thought she was an angel, but how could an angel hurt others like that!

  She hurt him.

  Even in tears, even in darkness, the strong and fragile pain at the bottom of his eyes made her suffocate to the point of wanting to die immediately.

  Why did she hurt him and her heart ached so much, shouldn't she be a demon instead? Why did she suddenly hate herself for not being able to exchange everything to make sure she never hurt him!

  Yin Tang Yao pinched her chin tightly, his fingertips icy cold, and his finger bones crackled: "Do you see? I'm wearing the white shirt you gave me today. You said that when I wear it, I'm the most beautiful person in the world. Why don't you even look at me?"

  Tears blurred her vision.

  She tearfully apologized and said:

  "I'm sorry..."

  Apart from this sentence, she seems to have nothing else to say.

  "Is the one who likes to wear white shirts that guy called 'Bae Woo' right? Is it also him who likes to eat long-life noodles right?" Yoon Tae-oh's heart ached as if being strangled, his body trembling with pain, his fingernails turning pale purple, "It's because of him that you approached me, isn't it?!"

  Xiaomi's heart was even more distressed, she sobbed silently:

  "Sorry! Sorry! Sorry!"

  The pain in his chest intensified, the severe pain gradually spreading throughout his body, he was in so much pain that his face turned pale and his lips were a frightening purple.

  "Because of his heart?"

  Yin Tangyao said softly, the pain in his body made him unable to pinch her face tightly anymore. He lowered his arm and gently grasped her hand, then gently placed her hand on his left chest.

  "Do you like his heart? Well, then take it away."

  She drew back her hand in great surprise, and with tears streaming down her face said:

  "I'm sorry, I was wrong! I know I was wrong, sorry!"

  Yin Tangyao grasped her hand tightly, his fingers icy cold like a thousand years of frost. He gripped her hand with great force, as if the strength could pierce through his chest and dig out his heart.

  "I'll give it to you!"

  He roared in the pitch-black night!

  "Come on, take it away! Don't you like it? Hurry up and take it, it's your beloved thing, hurry up and take it!!"

  Xiaomi Qianxin cried out in pain: "I'm sorry... what can I do, please tell me, what can I do... don't scare me like this... I know I was wrong... please don't scare me..."

  She sobbed uncontrollably.

  She knew she was wrong, her willfulness and selfishness had made everything go terribly wrong. However, she had already hurt him and didn't know how to make up for all the mistakes!

  The night is quiet and peaceful.

  The streetlights were dim and yellowish.

  Her face was full of tears and stardust.

  She cried like a helpless child, like an arrogant child who had made a mistake and didn't know how to get out of it, wailing in despair.

  Yoon Tae-oh opens it for her.

  A wry, self-mocking smile played on his lips as he gazed at her. Finally, he gently raised his hand, his fingertips icy and slightly trembling. He lightly wiped away her tears, the warm droplets scorching his chilly fingertips.

  "I don't know what to do either..."

  Yin Tang's lips were purple, and his heart ached as if it was about to crack open.

  "...If I could...I wish I had never met you..."

  Take one last look at her.

  He turned around.

  Slowly walking into darkness.

  His heart was wracked with intense pain, he hurt so much that he could no longer see the road ahead, as if treading on dark clouds in a nightmare, his face pale as paper in the black night.

  What's the big deal?

  Yin Tangyao gently closed his eyes.

  Even if his heart aches to death, what's the big deal? It wasn't his heart to begin with. Even if it ached to death, she wouldn't be sad because of him.

  Another intense pain exploded in his heart!

  A dark dizziness in front of my eyes...

  Quietly...

  His body fell silently, the night wind blew gently, and nothing could be heard clearly. The icy ground, the rustling trees, the wind passing through the mountain valley below, seemed to have her cry coming from behind, but the content of the cry was also unclear...

  It turns out...

  She...

  It's not his angel...

  PS: Thanks for Xiaonan's long review~~~

  Actually, I don't want to evaluate whether Xiaomi's approach is right or wrong. Before writing this article, I kept thinking and would always end up crying. If all these terrible things really happened, what should we do... Writing this article is also a process of reflection. From Xiaomi's experience and everyone's comments, I can think about many things.

  So——

  Thank you :)

  Also ps: Hug the tears of Tian Shi, Qing Ling, An Xi Mei Qi, Kaede... Give all friends a kiss*_*
