Guarding you in the fleeting years

  Suddenly, a clear and melodious voice came from behind her, like a call from afar across the ocean, and in the darkness, it became her only salvation.

  She heard his familiar voice, the one she had fantasized about countless times on so many sleepless nights, fabricated countless scenarios for, and those three words.

  "The words of Nie."

  She suddenly stopped in her tracks, slowly turned around, just like a slow-motion shot in the movies, and finally saw clearly the tall figure, overlapping with the name she had silently recited thousands of times in her heart.

  Lu Yiheng

  He stood in the distance, quietly watching her, his pitch-black eyes were like an ancient well, unfathomably deep, his slender figure was stretched out by the sunlight, slanting and casting a shadow on the ground, like a bold stroke of heavy ink in a splash-ink painting.

  Without warning, she suddenly took off in a mad dash, racing towards him at incredible speed, her feet seemingly treading on wind.

  It's him! It's really him!

  That faintly standing figure under the sunlight is Lu Yiheng!

  That man who thought she was walking towards him is Lu Yiheng!

  Passersby cast strange glances at her, but she remained completely unaware.

  The distance is constantly being pulled closer, the wind whistling in my ears, all the blood in my body rushing to my eardrums, the square filled with the faint scent of flowers, vague and indistinct.

  She rushed over, suddenly colliding into his arms, using all her strength to hold onto the figure, as if grasping the last piece of driftwood, as if grasping the weightiest thing in life, as if grasping her only salvation.

  A familiar breath in her breathing, the heart violently colliding, all around are vague lights and shadows, just like the thousands of times that have appeared in dreams over the years, so unreal.

  He steadily caught her, his broad bosom fully embracing her, a stormy sea surging in his heart, which he tightly suppressed, only wanting to hold her, just holding her tightly.

  Her whole body was trembling, as if she had suffered a great shock, like a small animal that had narrowly escaped death, her head buried deep in his arms, whimpering softly, all the fear and panic of being rescued from the jaws of death.

  He gently patted her thin shoulder, his chin slightly resting on her hair, his voice a little hoarse but unexpectedly pleasant, "Xiang Xiang, I'm fine, don't be afraid."

  His comfort only brought her even louder crying, at first just a low sob, gradually, the sound got bigger and bigger, she buried herself in his arms, and actually burst into loud wailing.

  Lu Yiheng was completely at a loss, he had never seen Nie Zhen's words like this before, so flustered and incoherent, so emotionally out of control, so tearfully choked.

  He was heartbroken, he reached out to push her away a little, wanting to wipe away her tears, but before he could see her tear-stained face clearly, Nie Zhiyan immediately wrapped herself tightly around him again.

  The voice of prayer has a spoiled tone, "Yiheng, hug me...hug me."

  He had no choice but to hold her again.

  She patted his back, sobbing incoherently, "Where did you run to... I thought it was you, I..."

  "You... scared me to death, I thought it was you."

  Tears gushed out wildly, like a faucet that couldn't be turned off, pouring down in a patter. Lu Yi's heart was deeply pained by her sobbing.

  "It's not me, I'm fine, don't cry, okay?"

  She heard it, but she just wouldn't let go.

  He let out a sigh and pulled her closer.

  (Small Theater:)

  After Lily finished her phone call, Lingling sighed and said: "Lily, your husband is so pitiful! You scolded him on the phone and weren't gentle at all!"

  She's so mighty when talking on phone with her family! Today she finally got a chance to be mighty for once!

  Lingling smiled, "...... Magnificent ......!"

  "So you're going to save her family baozi!" I thought they might say I was causing trouble, so I quickly added, "You and Lily become a pair of gay friends, and you'll successfully save the baozi!"

  Then they just smiled speechlessly!
