(3539) Shadow
"Yes." Lu Yinting said, "Actually, I felt that not only was there more than that, but even if all the candles in the world were lit, I still felt that the candlelight was not enough. At that time, my heart was dark. No matter how many candles I lit, it was just the light from the outside world that I lit. That light was not in my heart."
At this time, Ning Duanye thought that the reason why he brought so many candles out was related to the situation she said. Although there was the light of Lu Yinting by his side at this time, even though he knew that he was alive, they would never be separated. However, he had to go through a farewell not far away. From then on, she could not stand beside him and talk to him as much as before, and her light could no longer shine on his heart in the way before. In this way, although he thought he was still with her, this upcoming change that he really didn't want to accept would still make him feel that the light that would not be enough when she passed away. He was not sure when she would die. Once she passed away, he felt that there was not enough light in his heart, so he wanted to increase his light by scattering as many candles as possible.
In fact, even if he lights many candles, he will not feel that the light is enough, but he will still want to do this when he hears Lu Yinting say this.
After hearing Lu Yinting's words, Ning Duanye suddenly realized that lighting so many candles would not solve the problem. And at that time, if he still felt that the light was not enough after lighting so many candles, but he could not find any other way, then such practice would only aggravate the sadness caused by farewell.
He wanted to find a solution to the problem, so he asked Lu Yinting: "What happened later?"
"Later I saw groups of fireflies here, and when I saw it, I put out the candle. Of course, at that time I didn't think much about why I put out the candle. When I looked at the flying fireflies, my feelings suddenly became different. I didn't think about how different it was. I looked here for a long time, calmed down, and told myself that the future may not be dark. Now, thinking about it, it's true. Later, I met you." Lu Yinting said.
"Are you no longer worried that someone will catch up with you?" Ning Duanye asked.
"Yes, it was only at this time that I felt that there was no need to continue running. I knew that no one was chasing me before, and what was still chasing me was just the shadow in my heart." Lu Yinting replied.
This made Ning Duanye think, and he thought: Sometimes, people think that they do something because of other things, but in fact, it may be just because there is a shadow of other things in their hearts.
"At that time, I sat down on the stone we are sitting on now. Looking at the fireflies, I seemed to suddenly find another reason why I had put out the candles before." Lu Yinting said.
"What's the reason?" Ning Duanye asked.
