The hoard of people dispersed, leaving only Cheng Yang and Xiao Ying on the beach.
Xiao Ying slowly walked to the seaside and sat down. She hugged her legs and remained silent.
Cheng Yang followed her and asked, "Little girl, do you have any wishes?"
Xiao Ying took a deep breath and suppressed the surging emotions in her heart. "I want you to live a long life."
Cheng Yang was stunned. He hadn't expected such a wish.
He smiled and said, "Why must one live so long? Life is beautiful because it's short."
The Cheng Yang from the past would never expect such words to come out of his own mouth.
Xiao Ying glared at Cheng Yang and said fiercely, "You're already so much older than me. What will I do if you don't live to be a hundred years old?"
Cheng Yang didn't know whether to laugh or cry. So that was the reason. But was he that old?
