The young man in his heart was silent, the two were one, and some words he would pronounce out of anger, but some truths were clear at all.

Once, the old monk in Quanling Temple said something similar to him.

All appearances are vain.

The word "appearance" in Buddhism is very esoteric, but it is easy to understand the general concept by giving an example in layman's terms.

For example, if you cross the street and help an elderly woman with limited mobility, this is called "doing good deeds", which is a very natural behavior.

You vow to stay on the side of the road and help your grandmother cross the road, which is called "doing good deeds", which reflects your compassion.

However, you vow to stay on the side of the road, to help the old woman cross the road, whether she wants to or not, you must get her over.

This is the "phase".

The boy is naturally like this to Wen Liang, he sometimes deliberately tries too carefully to distinguish the relationship between the present her and the future "her", there is really no problem at the beginning, but slowly, this idea is deeply rooted, and gradually transforms into something similar to "obsession".

And the final result of this obsession is that now when Cao Aiqing may also have this kind of problem, the other He Tianran only needs to poke lightly, and the young man falls into a deep panic.

So much so that now, he has the same view of his other self.

From the very beginning, he was sure that his future self would not be a good stubble, and he knew that the motives and thoughts contained in the things he had just done were nothing more than trying to attract Wen Liang's attention, to retreat into advance, and to disguise himself as a weakling.

Yes, it's as simple as that, it's really not difficult to understand.

However, this also seems to ignore a fact.

If the other self really watched Wen Liang let go 71 times in Infernal Reincarnation, then converting this into the dimension of time means that it took him six years to say a sentence to Wen Liang, can you teach me to dance.

Six years is too long for a young man, so long that the young man He Tianran is not sure if he will still be with Cao Aiqing after six years.

Thinking of this, the young man felt that the actions of the young man himself might really not be able to simply define good and bad, just like his twelve-year-old self six years ago, he must not be able to read the eighteen-year-old He Tianran.

However, one thing is certain, that is, what the other self did, in exchange for a fearless look with Wen Liang.

Moreover, in the eyes of the two of them, there seemed to be something to say.

An hour later, the bonfire ended in a lively and peaceful atmosphere.

The classmates dispersed in groups, Wen Liangwan refused Sheng Qidong's proposal to go back with a few girls, everyone thought that her mood was affected and she wanted to be quiet, so she didn't force it.

The cold moonlight shone down the sea, and the stars in the sparkling waves were dark and brilliant.

The girl walked away from the crowd and walked alone along the beach where she had returned, her pretty face hung with an out-of-place melancholy, and her ears were filled with the wash of the waves and the softness of the sand beneath her feet.

"Sand, sand, sand~"

Behind her, the sound of another person's footsteps sounded unconsciously.

He Tianran got rid of the fights of his friends, and when he saw Wen Liang walking away, he quietly followed.

The two of them were as if they had agreed.

On the beach by the sea, there were long footprints of two people.

The girl stopped, and the boy's foot, which had just taken it, was immediately retracted.

Wen Liang turned around, she slowly brushed her hair behind her ears from the sea breeze, and looked at He Tianran's eyes in sober and confused.

Both paused for a moment, and this time, it was the girl who took the initiative to look away, she looked at the dark sea, and said softly:

"I've been wondering all night why you invited me, you definitely wouldn't have done such a thing before......"

"Really? So, when you say 'before', the package doesn't contain 'future'? ”

He Tianran always had a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Wen Liang turned her head to look at the boy again, her expression was first surprised, then complicated, and at the end, she relaxed as if relieved.

"I vaguely guessed why you weren't the same, but if it weren't for what you did tonight, I probably wouldn't have come to terms with that fact so quickly."

He Tianran joked: "Do you still need to match the code?" Things like I tell me about your favorite stuff or something. ”

Wen Liang glared at him, smiled and shook his head: "Whether it was in the past or in the future, you don't know what I like the most, and you have never asked me, so you can't be right about this code." ”

"It's okay, isn't this still ......"

He Tianran walked over and sat on the sand very heroically, while Wen Liang smiled when he saw this, and sat beside him with his legs bent.

The boy put his hands behind his back, leaned back, and asked, "Are you angry?" ”

The girl rested her chin on her bent knee, did not look at him, and replied, "Sort of." ”

"Then you just rejected me?"

"You didn't tell me just now."

"What if I told you in advance? Do you give this face? ”

Wen Liang didn't rush to answer, but raised his head like a rabbit, pulled down his eyelids towards He Tianran, stuck out his tongue and grimaced.

"Think beautiful~"

He Tianran touched his nose in embarrassment, "Look, you have embarrassed me in public again, you know, I am a special grudge." ”

Wen Liang heard this, and finally showed a smile, she didn't pay attention to the meaning of He Tiantian's words, turned her head and said silently:

"This time, I won't be stupid again, what will I pay you......"

He Tianran looked at her side face, and finally looked up and smiled and sighed.

"Hey ......"

"Huh?"

"Why did 'you' appear?"

Wen Liang asked words that only two people could understand, and at this time, even the waves became the background sound between them.

"What's not there, isn't 'He Tianran' always there?" The boy snorted.

"Is it what will happen in this future that you can't let go?"

Wen Liang asked seriously, she had the same experience, so her attention was not diverted by He Tianran.

“……”

The boy was dumbfounded, and saw Wen Liang clasping his hands around his knees, and muttering with his eyes out of focus:

"Does it have anything to do with me? If yes, I'd like to say sorry to you...... But I'm trying hard to be myself......"

The girl's voice was so soft that it rubbed into the waves, and with the tide, it poured into the boy's heart.

After a while, a hand slowly stroked her hair, and the warmth of her head was shocked, and in her ears, a warm and warm comfort came from He Tianran:

"It's related to you, but it's not your problem, you're doing a great job."
