Chapter 224: Its own beauty

It's over, and it's begun.

How should this road be taken? Standing by his side like a true friend all the time, knowing his joys and sorrows, or knowing everything about him, and even knowing some secrets that no one else can know, this secret, only he and her...... Or, they'll be closer than ever.

It's just that, like a real friend, it will always be a friend, a friend and a lover, there is always a distance, and this distance is something she can't cross.

It's just that Quan Baolan was lying on the bed, and when she thought of today's events, she couldn't help but look at the ceiling and smirk, and then rolled on the bed, wrapped in the sheets, and restless on Simmons's bed.

Maybe she'll make her own choices, the choices she makes.

Xu Yao returned home, leaning on the head of the bed with nothing to do, looking out the window, the night sky after the rain.

After the rain, the night sky became clearer, and even a hint of moonlight faintly shone through the clouds.

Xu Yao was high and condescending, no matter how noisy and noisy the sound was below, he was excluded from the bottom, Xu Yao was at the top, and he only felt quiet.

The quiet sky, the quiet flow of the river, the bright light permeated the entire river, and in the distant black, there was also a glimmer of lighthouse light from that side, faintly seeing the turbulent undercurrent.

Xu Yao looked out the window for a while, and even he didn't know why he felt a little melancholy in his heart. Coming back to his senses, Xu Yao sighed.

I picked up the book that was placed next to the bed, it was a book without a case, without a cover, without a title, and without an author.

It's just that the prologue story at the beginning attracted Xu Yao.

The prologue of the book cites a story - the story of Nacissos, a famous beautiful man in ancient Greece.

Legend has it that the river god Kephissos married the goddess of Mizusawa, Liriope, and gave birth to a son named Nacissos.

After Nacissos was born, his parents sought divine revelations to know what the child's fate would be. God revealed, "Do not make him know himself." But no one understood what that meant.

Time passed, and the sun and the moon flew by, and before he knew that Nacissus had grown to the age of sixteen, he had grown into a very handsome young man. His parents had memorized the revelation and had not allowed him to see his shadow. So Naxos didn't know what he looked like. He often carried a quiver on his back and a curved bow in his hand, and hunted in the woods from morning till night.

With the protection of his parents, Nacissos would not have seen himself.

However, accidents will happen eventually, and no one can stop them.

Nacissus had never seen himself before, so when he saw his reflection in the lake, he was amazed at the beauty of such a beautiful person in the world, so he fell in love with his own shadow in the lake.

However, he can only see himself from the lake as a mirror.

Most people in the world use others as mirrors to understand what they look like.

The story of Nacissos is not over.

One day, he was so intoxicated by the unattainable shadow in the lake that he fell into the lake and drowned.

It just so happened that a goddess who loved him passed by, and the goddess was very sad to see this, but she made some effort to bury Nacissos in a pit.

As a result, on the grave of Narcissus, a pure white daffodil grew.

So, that's why the English word for daffodil is "narcissus", narcissist.

After that, every night and night, the sound of crying could be heard by the lake in the forest.

One of the gods was astonished, and he came to the lake, only to find that the cry came from the lake.

The god was very strange and asked the lake, "Why are you crying?" ”

"For Nacissos."

"Why? He's in love with his own shadow, not with you. "God is even stranger.

"Every time I see his clear eyes, looking at me quietly, I realize that my appearance in his eyes is so pure and blue. So, only

Will cry for him day and night.

The general significance of this story is that it is to illustrate that each of us can only rely on others to see our own beauty.

Very sad story.

Xu Yao doesn't know where he is good, maybe because he is more handsome, he will become different.

After reading it, Xu Yao smiled, of course he understood what this was.

At this time, Xu Yao's mobile phone rang. Xu Yao reluctantly put down the book, picked up the phone and connected, and there was an unfamiliar number on the other side of the phone.

"Isn't that colorful? What's the matter? Xu Yao said to the person on the other end of the phone.

But there was no sound or answer, and he could hear the faint sound of breathing, but no one replied, so Xu Yao felt very strange.

"Hello, Xu Yao...... I'm All-Sapphire Blue. The voice was small and trembling slightly.

"It turned out to be Baolan~" Xu Yao suddenly realized, "Is there something wrong?" ”

"Nothing." I just want to hear your voice.

He stopped again and did not speak again.

"That's it~" Xu Yao said.

"Wait a minute...... Quan Baolan hesitated, "Well, is the wound better?" ”

Quan Baolan's voice became smaller and smaller, as if she remembered the scene of that day.

"It's much better." Xu Yao chuckled, the story about the wound still has a full blue side in it.

"That's fine." In a room where no one was looking, a girl looked out the window, listening to the phone in her ear, listening distractedly.

"I'll go for a check-up with Ji-yeon tomorrow, and by the way, we'll see how I'm recovering."

"yes, I know."

"So, is there anything else?"

"No, I just hope your injuries can heal soon."

"Thank you." Xu Yao said.

"No, friend, aren't you? Such a small concern from a friend is nothing. Quanbaolan's voice came.

"That...... Nothing more. Quan Baolan was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Then I'll hang up." ”

"It's fine."

In the room, Quan Baolan was lying down, but suddenly sat up, looked at the mobile phone number displayed on the mobile phone screen, and had mixed feelings.

Still timid, still afraid to say too much, still afraid of misunderstanding.

Looking at the number seriously, as if to keep it in mind, after a while, Quan Baolan raised his head and looked out the window.

The night sky outside the window began to turn a little silvery white, and it seemed that the real moon had cleared the clouds and appeared in front of her.

Quan Baolan lowered her head, but the screen that went black reflected her appearance.

It turns out that he is also beautiful now.

We can only rely on others to discover our beauty.
