"Go to sleep."
"I woke up to find it was just a nightmare."
He held Yan Heqing in his arms, then turned and walked into the increasingly dark fog.
The air in my arms gradually felt lighter, until finally there was no weight at all. The thick fog dissipated, revealing lush trees and a rich floral fragrance.
Lin Fengzhi and Lu Muchi stood in front of a tomb.
The sun shone brightly, and two bunches of daisies lay before the grave. Lin Fengzhi's eyes were red-rimmed. "Brother, I've come to see you."
Lin Fengzhi squatted down and recounted in detail what had happened to him recently, while Lu Muchi listened from the side.
As the sun set, the two finally prepared to leave.
Lu Muchi wiped away the tears from Lin Fengzhi's eyes, then suddenly knelt down on one knee, holding a ring in his palm, and raised it to Lin Fengzhi.
" Zhizhi, this is the ring my dad gave my mom when he proposed. It symbolizes a lifetime of true love."
"I'm giving this to you now, and I swear I'll make you happy for the rest of your life. Will you marry me?"
Tears welled up in Lin Fengzhi's eyes again, his pupils glistening. He pursed his lips. "Can we?"
Lu Muchi smiled, slipped the ring onto his ring finger, and said gently, "It will definitely work."
Lin Fengzhi into laughter through his tears, pulled Lu Muchi up, and hugged him tightly.
"I do!"
A jumble of fragmented moments flashed by, and Lu Lin, no longer invisible, attended Lu Muchi and Lin Fengzhi's wedding of the century.
Cheng Jian, Zhao Huilin, Yan Feng, and Ge Tongyuan all attended the wedding.
A world without Yan Heqing.
Every cell in Lu Lin's body was screaming with nausea. He wanted to close his eyes, but no matter what he did, he couldn't control his body.
The two were kissing on stage, surrounded by applause and cheers.
Lu Lin clenched his fists, and just then, a series of familiar beeping sounds suddenly rang in his ears.
yes--
Alarm clock!
It's five o'clock!
Lu Lin suddenly opened his eyes.
The wedding of the century had ended, all the excitement had vanished, and in the dark space, only his heavy breathing could be heard. The blanket was tightly covering him, and Lu Lin looked to the side first.
Empty.
Still dreaming?
Lu Lin touched his face; it was sticky with a mixture of cold sweat and tears.
A flash of light suddenly appeared outside the window.
He gradually adapted to the environment, which was the RV before he went to sleep.
It wasn't a dream; I'm awake.
Lu Lin threw off the covers and got out of bed, his voice hoarse and low, " Heqing-- "
He called out, but there was no response. Without even putting on his clothes or shoes, he rushed to the car door, got out, and searched for the light source that had just flashed by.
After getting off the car, the temperature was still low. Lu Lin determined that the light source was coming from the lakeside and strode after it.
The tangled weeds were as tall as a person. Lu Lin parted the grass and searched hurriedly. The ball of light sensed the movement and quickly rushed over.
The name was right in his throat, but Lu Lin couldn't utter a sound. He pushed hard against the sharp weeds, and finally, through the last clump of grass, a blurry figure appeared ahead. A familiar voice called to him, " Lu Lin, is that you?"
Lu Lin couldn't answer. Yan Heqing pushed aside the last weeds, and the young man, carrying a flashlight, his face bathed in a soft orange light, saw Lu Lin standing barefoot in the weeds, wearing only a vest. He walked quickly towards him in surprise, "You—"
Lu Lin stepped forward and hugged Yan Heqing tightly, inhaling the familiar scent deeply.
He understood everything.
He understood everything about Yan Heqing's doom and secrets.
Everything Yan Heqing did was for self-preservation, to avoid the anniversary of his death on March 3rd.
The Sunrise he longed for on March 4th wasn't just Sunrise; it was the life he desperately wanted to hold onto.
Lu Lin tightened his grip with unusual strength. Yan Heqing was surprised at first, then he hugged Lu Lin back and apologized, "I'm sorry, I woke up early and was thinking of going to the lake to set up my net. I made you worry."
Lu Lin kissed Yan Heqing's eyes with tears in his eyes.
Without desire, light to the point of fear, filled with piety.
After a very long time, he was finally able to make a sound.
The Sunrise has risen.
Yan Heqing turned around, and a red sun rose from the crater, illuminating the entire world in the blink of an eye. He could finally see this place clearly.
Wild grasses grew rampant, and volcanoes stretched endlessly. Apart from him and Lu Lin, there was no sign of any other life. The lake was an endless expanse of dark red, silent and still.
This place seems to have been forgotten by the world.
apocalypse
However, at the crater, the sun rose, and the orange-red glow painted the sky with a magnificent and vibrant color that could not be artificially mixed, full of the hope of life.
Yan Heqing released Lu Lin and quickly walked out of the weeds, facing the rising sun without any cover.
He no longer needed to search for light; he was bathed in the glow of the setting sun, and he was the light.
Warmth settled on his eyelashes, and Yan Heqing's eyes reflected the breathtaking Sunrise.
This was the first time he had ever seen such a magnificent and splendid Sunrise.
Yan Heqing couldn't wait to turn around and call out to Lu Lin, " Lu Lin, look! The Sunrise is so beautiful!"
But he found Lu Lin staring at him.
Those dark eyes were surging with intense emotions. Yan Heqing stopped, suddenly realizing something.
Lu Lin seems to know.
His heart was pounding warmly, and he fell silent, looking back at Lu Lin in quiet contemplation.
Their eyes met, and without a word, their hearts were naturally connected.
The next second, Yan Heqing heard Lu Lin say--
"I'm watching, I've been watching."
"The most beautiful Sunrise in the world."

" A-Lin, what's wrong with your eyes?!" When Lu Lin arrived at school, he had just sat down when Chu Ziyu, unusually, arrived before him.
Lu Lin pulled out his textbook and tossed it onto the table. "Insomnia."
Chu Ziyu was shocked, "You can't sleep either!"
Lu Lin hadn't eaten breakfast and was experiencing low blood sugar. He pulled out a box of throat lozenges, popped one into his mouth, and muttered, "Why don't I ever have insomnia?"
Chu Ziyu grinned, "Hehe, that's true."
The bell rang shortly after, and Chu Ziyu returned to her seat. Ten minutes into the class, Lu Lin raised her hand and said she needed to go to the infirmary.
