He Ran and Gui Yuan met for the first time when Gui Yuan was sent to an orphanage.
At that time, He Ran was just able to transform into a human form, and he could only barely last a few hours, mixed with the possibility of suddenly turning back into the prototype. Despite this, such a change is still a thing that makes him extremely happy, because he can transform into a human form and finally have the opportunity to integrate into this world and feel the joy of life as a human being. This is what he has always longed for the most, so after gaining the qualification to live with humans, he did not hesitate to start his new life as a human.
He often turned into a child and played with the orphans in the orphanage, and the day he met Guiyuan happened to be when he turned back into his prototype after a day of playing. He stood on a tree far away from the orphanage and rested, and at a glance he saw a small longan.
The warm orange sunset mixed with a hint of eerie red fell on Guiyuan's body, stretching her thin back very long. He stared motionlessly at her back, which looked unusually lonely because of the rendering of the setting sun, and suddenly felt the heart hidden in his chest begin to beat wildly.
He began to appear frequently at the orphanage, while trying to get close to her in every possible way. However, apart from the fact that he became a woman who wanted to adopt her and learned that her parents were dead and had no relatives and no reason, he didn't get close to her at all. She is like an ice sculpture, with an unusually beautiful appearance, but people are afraid to approach it because of her coldness.
This kind of personality makes her a lot of bullied in this group, and if it weren't for his secret help, she would have been hurt even more. Every time he saw her being bullied, he was very distressed, but looking at her face, she seemed calm, as if these things happened to others and had nothing to do with her.
He had always wanted to know what had happened to make this girl what she was now, but the information he stole back belonged to her was almost like a blank slate, and she herself had never revealed her past to anyone.
She attracted him like a mist, but he went through a lot of hardships and still couldn't get the answer he wanted. Faced with such an outcome, he almost wanted to give up, but at this time, things took a turn for the worse with a very devastating danger.
He never imagined that there would be such a filthy person in the orphanage, this man who coveted her beauty, would take advantage of the absence of her to deceive her with bad intentions. Had he not arrived in time to stop the crime, with her character, he would have seen her body the next day.
He had known the idiom "red face and bad water" earlier, and he was told that this idiom meant that beautiful women were bad people, and they would use their beauty to do things that were not tolerated. He didn't understand the meaning of the word itself, but he instinctively felt that it didn't make sense. Now facing the man on the ground who was almost killed by him, he felt that the creation of this kind of word was just the result of a man trying to shirk the responsibility he needed to bear after making a mistake.
He kicked the man again before he went to the corner and picked her up. She was obviously frightened, and even after knowing that she was safe, her whole body was still trembling, and even her beautiful eyes were covered with a layer of mist. For the first time, he found out that she also had a different look, which made him feel distressed and a little happy at the same time.
He knew that she would not continue to live here, so he made up a fake identity, went through the adoption procedures, and brought her back to his place of residence. And because she was saved by him, she did not object to his approach, followed him quietly, and ended her life in the orphanage.
