"I have a wish."
Eighteen-year-old Xie Ruqiang knelt on a cushion in the main hall of Jiming Temple, her hands clasped as she prayed with all her heart. "Bodhisattva, dear Bodhisattva, I want Zhong Chengyu to get better. I want him to be able to run and jump, cry and laugh... And, of course, it would be even better if he could like me, too! If you can't grant both wishes at once, then just grant the first one. Please, please, I'm begging you!"
She didn't know whether the Bodhisattva had heard her, but she did know that fate liked to play tricks. The sky had been sunny when she went in, but when she came out after praying, it was pouring. All she could do was stare in a daze at the misty rain.
As she stood there, bewildered, someone in the crowd suddenly tapped her on the shoulder.
"Come on."
The person said, opening an apricot-colored umbrella in front of her. "I've never seen anyone talk to a Bodhisattva for half an hour before. The rain isn't too heavy yet, so I'll walk you home."
It was Zhong Chengyu.
"Did you come here just to wait for me?"
"I was passing by."
"Liar. What are the odds? Since you're here, Zhong Chengyu, did you pray? Did you make a wish?"
"No."
"Liar, liar, pants on fire?"
"..."

Yes.
The eighteen-year-old Zhong Chengyu, who would rather become a puppy than tell the truth, didn't give her the answer until he was twenty-eight. She turned through his diary page by page, until she reached that day. This was what he had written:
[If I could, I would like to make a wish, too.]
[I want to grow old with Xie Ruqiang. I really want to see what she looks like when her hair turns white.]
Theme: A person can become jade, or shatter like tile.
Help, can you finish writing this? I really beg you.
Another acquaintance. It seems that "Under the Banyan Tree" is also the last one.
Although writing is not compulsory, the Clay Doll book was stopped for three or four months at first, and I was waiting for it. You said you would publish the ending after Zhe Que finished writing it, so I waited until Zhe Que finished writing it. Now that Zhe Que has stopped writing it, when can I continue my Clay Doll book? (It doesn't mean anything, I just miss the story of the clay doll too much. When can I start it?)
What's the point of rebate? Don't ah ah ah
My dear, how do you understand V?
Zhong Chengyu, you insist on wanting Aman to see you
Finally updated wow wow wow
So who was Zhong Chengyu before?
I won't update it as I write it down. Will I update it after the next book is finished? You don't play like this, do you? ? ?
This is another work that I pursued from high school to college graduation. I beg you for your love, my dear.
