please don't wear it

Yi Lianzhen didn't understand Qiu Lingxuan's words at the first moment, he reacted for a while and asked puzzledly: "What do you mean?"

Why did Ren Wudao not want to play with them?

Qiu Lingxuan's bright eyes looked at Yi Lianzhen complicatedly: "Don't you know?"

Yi Lianzhen became even more confused immediately, he shook his head and waited for Qiu Lingxuan to explain.

"That friend of yours," Qiu Lingxuan paused, "he didn't want to get in touch with us from the very beginning, haven't you noticed? He usually only talks to you, and he doesn't talk to others if he can. The tone of command."

"I don't know how he treats people and things in your place," she pouted, "but here, although he doesn't treat us as if we don't exist, it's like an invisible barrier between us... I'm not very I want to get too close to him."

Yi Lian really understood, he lowered his head and let out a soft ah, not knowing how to explain it to Qiu Lingxuan.

I also blame him for being too careless during this period of time, and didn't even notice this.

Ren Wudao did change, but only when he was with him.

When facing him, Ren Wudao could talk and laugh, but when he walked in front of everyone, he still resisted others.

When in the martial arts hall and in the room, he always chooses to stand in the corner, never speaks when there is no business, his eyes are cold, scrutinizing and indifferent.

As if to verify his idea, Qiu Lingxuan added another sentence.

"I haven't even seen him smile... No, once, when he was talking to you."

"He's only good for you," she said, "even when he's standing in the corner looking at you."

"This..." Yi Lian really scratched his head, "Ren Wudao is actually a very nice person, but he is... more introverted."

Qiu Lingxuan raised her eyebrows, obviously not convinced.

Yi Lian was really stuck, he didn't know how to describe Ren Wudao's character, and then he realized later that he didn't need to explain to Qiu Lingxuan at all.

Just drag her over to play cards, it won't take long, a few nights is enough for Qiu Lingxuan to get acquainted with Ren Wudao like him, and all misunderstandings will be resolved by themselves.

"He's really good," Yi Lian assured Qiu Lingxuan, "You just stay here."

Qiu Lingxuan slightly rolled her eyes: "Forget it, you play, I'd better go back to practice sword."

"Sister Lingxuan——" Yi Lianzhen drawled her tone and pleaded, "It's boring for the two of us to play together, so why don't you risk your life to accompany a gentleman? One night, one night will do!"

She dared to risk her life to save Xu Baisha, so what's the point of playing cards all night?

Qiu Lingxuan hesitated for a while.

"Okay then," she reluctantly said, "For the sake of calling me sister, no matter how difficult Xiang is, I have to stay with you..."

Halfway through her speech, she opened her eyes and looked behind Yi Lianzhen.

With a soft sigh, Yi Lian turned around in surprise, Ren Wudao was looking at him two steps away: "When did you come?"

"I see you have been out for too long," Ren Wudao said flatly, "Come out and have a look."

Yi Lian really shrugged her shoulders, relying on Ren Wudao's ear power and spiritual sense, he heard him talking to Qiu Lingxuan with ease, what's the need to come out and see?

Qiu Lingxuan originally said half of what she said but couldn't continue. She looked at Yi Lianzhen, then at Ren Wudao, and finally cast her eyes on Yi Lianzhen: "What you just said..."

"Oh," Yi Lian really hurriedly said to Ren Wudao, "I just asked Sister Lingxuan to play cards with us..."

"I know," Ren Wudao nodded to Qiu Lingxuan, "It's okay, no need."

Both Yi Lianzhen and Qiu Lingxuan froze for a moment.

Qiu Lingxuan was the first to react.

"Okay," she stammered, "Then...then you two are talking, I'll go back to practice swords first!"

After finishing speaking, she no longer waited for Yi Lian to say anything, turned around and left at the fastest speed, almost trotting.

Yi Lian looked at her back in astonishment, and wanted to call her back, but Ren Wudao grabbed her by the shoulders and took her back.

In the lobby, Yi Lianzhen still couldn't figure it out, he sat blankly on the chair for a while, then looked up at Ren Wudao.

Ren Wudao was still the same as before, quietly leaning against the wall, and smiled softly when he looked at him, as if to comfort him.

Yi Lianzhen didn't take his smile into his heart, and was still struggling with what happened just now.

"You..." He spoke slowly, "Did you hear what I said to Sister Lingxuan?"

Ren Wudao hummed lightly.

"Then why did you say that at the end?" Yi Lian was really puzzled, "I was almost able to call her over to play cards together."

Just now Qiu Lingxuan obviously wanted to agree, but Ren Wudao flatly refused.

"Is it because she said she doesn't like you?" Yi Lian couldn't help but said, "It's actually okay, she just doesn't know you yet, so you don't have to worry about it."

He said, "When you get to know her as well as I do, nothing will happen."

"It's nothing." Ren Wudao shook his head, stopped Yi Lianzhen's words, he seemed a little confused, but also calm, "I just don't think it's necessary."

"No need?" Yi Lianzhen asked back, things seemed to be different from what he imagined.

He was originally worried that Ren Wudao would be sad after hearing Qiu Lingxuan's words. After all, the other party wanted to blend in with the crowd and have friends so much.

From the short period of less than a month he spent with Ren Wudao, it can be seen that he has worked hard - the lonely habit that has been cultivated for hundreds of years has now changed most of it.

Some of the games that Yi Lianzhen proposed were even played by him when he was a child. If he played too much, he would be a bit boring, but Ren Wudao has always joined in patiently and never said a word of rejection.

Why don't you need it now?

The doubts on Yi Lianzhen's face were too obvious, Ren Wudao thought for a while before slowly expressing his thoughts.

"That's what I thought before," he said with lowered eyes, "I don't want to be alone anymore, I don't want to bring bad luck to others, I want to have someone by my side, to be like others, to have friends and relatives..."

He paused for a moment, then looked at Yi Lianzhen again: "But during this time, I have been very satisfied."

Yi Lian really looked at him, opened his mouth, but couldn't speak.

He only had one word on his mind.

The socialization training for Ren Wudao seems to have gone astray.

In the last world, he and Ren Wudao stayed together for almost the whole time, and the only people he had contact with were Yan Yu and Shi Yexin—with those two people, there was no chance of making friends at all.

As a result, Ren Wudao decided that the two of them had a small social circle and gave up understanding the bigger world?

"You can't do this," Yi Lian really couldn't help standing up and walking in front of Ren Wudao, the whole person was in shock, "Did I teach you this before?"

Ren Wudao glanced at him up and down: "Communication? You and I have already..."

"But what about the others?" Yi Lian asked him.

Ren Wudao fell silent, he shook his head: "I think you are already fine by yourself."

It's over, it's really gone.

Yi Lian is really like being struck by lightning.

"Am I alone?" he argued, "You have fought against fate for 800 years, do you just want to find someone to accompany you and be satisfied?"

Is this requirement too low?

Ren Wudao did not answer.

But his expression is acquiescing.

Yi Lianzhen pursed her lips, as if to Ren Wudao, but also as if to shake her head to herself.

"But you are like this," he was inexplicably disappointed, "You just think that I am very good, because I am that special person, and I am the first person who can be your friend."

"You haven't made friends with anyone else at all."

"I still hope..." he whispered, "I hope you can experience a world other than mine."

Some people have many friends, some have few friends, and some have only one best friend in their life. Yi Lian really never thinks there is any problem with these.

Ren Wudao also has the right to choose, no matter what kind of life he wants to live, Yi Lianzhen will respect him.

But he hopes that before making this choice, Ren Wudao can make enough attempts to understand what he likes.

Now less than two months away from that terrible fate, Ren Wudao just because he refused the opportunity to contact other people... It's not enough, Yi Lian really knows, this is too narrow.

He is just a pity, there are thousands of people in the world, and there are so many different feelings and happiness.

Ren Wudao cannot close this door because of him.

The conversation didn't lead to any results, and Yi Lian was still a little bored when she left, not knowing what went wrong.

May not even sleep well at night.

Ren Wudao didn't stop him, but looked at his leaving back complicatedly.

He could feel that Yi Lian was really depressed and sad.

It's just...he couldn't figure out what he did wrong.

He never asked for much.

During the long days of walking alone, all he wanted was to have someone by his side.

He doesn't even ask who that person is.

As long as they can comfort each other's loneliness and helplessness born from the bottom of their hearts, he is willing to walk with him forever.

Yi Lian was really nice, better than the best person he had imagined for thousands of years before.

He is really contented and satisfied now.

This kind of life is what he once longed for. As long as Yi Lian is really by his side, he can live like this for another 100 years, 1000 years, or his whole life.

For other people, for those people who passed him by, he no longer has any requirements or desires.

Even if you brush shoulders with everyone else in the world, it doesn't matter.

He is no longer alone.
