Chapter 231 The End of the World

There were signs a long time ago that Tian Xiang's ability to label people was weakening.

At that time, she could no longer notice some small changes around her. She could only feel them if they were closely related to her and there were some major changes.

After she was kidnapped, she returned to Beijing and rested for a while, relaxing her whole body and mind. Gradually, she discovered that this ability was degenerating. Later, not only was there no visible change, but the labels that everyone originally had also began to become blurred.

It was not clear at first, then it turned into white mist, and then the mist became lighter and lighter, and disappeared two years ago.

It’s gone, so it’s gone. Tian Xiang didn’t care.

She has hardly used this ability in recent years.

And without those things on everyone's forehead, she felt that the world seemed more real.

In the past, when she looked at those labels and related terms popped up in her mind, she always had a sense of unreality, thinking that this world was created by others and was fake.

Now, she has nothing, but she thinks it is a good thing. She no longer has to worry about the world suddenly being destroyed one day. She can stay with her family until old age and leave some good memories with each other.

The couple watched on the roadside for a while, and when Chang Wan and her daughter returned to the store, Meng Cheng'an also drove away.

Instead of returning to their respective companies, the two went to the mall.

Tian Xiang had previously promised her son that if he got into a good junior high school, she would take him out to play.

There are a few days off next month, and Tian Xiang wants to take her son out for a walk.

Because my old man also wanted to come with us and couldn't go abroad, we had to choose a place within the country.

After comprehensive consideration, I decided to climb the No. 1 mountain in the world.

The couple spent half a day shopping in the mall and only returned to the company after having dinner.

Meng Cheng'an first sent his wife home and then returned to his unit.

In the past two years, although Tian Xiang still went back to work in the company, she usually attended meetings and looked at reports. When she was in the mood, she would pick out scripts and visit the set. If she didn't want to work, she would work half a day and rest half a day, and leave work early.

At her age, she can actually continue acting, but she has given it up.

She has satisfied her acting addiction and won all the awards she deserves. Now it’s time to enjoy this world.

She used to live in a small place called Sanli Lane. If she wanted to eat meat, she had to save money and get tickets. Everyone was busy making a living and couldn’t think too much.

Now, conditions are good, she has everything she wants and plenty of time, so she wants to walk around more and see the outside world. No matter whether this world is real or illusory, she wants to make her life worthwhile and come to this world.

During the National Day trip, Tian Xiang invited her parents to go hiking together.

In recent years, Hu Honglian and his wife have also grown old. Two years ago, Tian Weibing underwent an operation. Although it was not a major operation, it also reminded Tian Xiang that some time should be cherished.

It was the first time for several of them to visit the No. 1 Mountain in the World.

At the beginning, everyone was ambitious and thought it was no problem, as they were in good health and could climb up by themselves.

Later on, only Tian Xiang's family of three persevered, and the three older ones took the cable car up halfway.

This time, the group set out the night before, planning to go to the mountain to watch the sunrise.

After climbing for several hours, the family of three walked and stopped, and when they arrived at the destination, they were all exhausted.

It seems that it is better to take the cable car. Look at the three old men and the guard who took care of the old man. They only walked for half an hour after getting off the cable car. They were relaxed and had already occupied the best viewing spot.

The family of three sat down to rest for a while and drank some water, then Meng Jianian went to visit his grandparents and grandfather.

Meng Cheng'an took Tian Xiang to sit on a large rock in the front. The couple wanted to enjoy this spectacle alone.

Meng Chengan asked her, "Are we going to walk down or take the cable car?"

When going up the mountain, Tian Xiang also said that she had to use her legs to go up and down the mountain.

At this point, she quickly waved her hand and said, "Take the cable car."

If you continue like this, you won’t even have your legs anymore.

Meng Chengan smiled.

Tian Xiang asked him, "Can you still walk?"

Meng Chengan: “No.”

"Then why are you laughing at me?"

Meng Chengan suppressed the corner of his mouth, "Okay, I won't laugh at you anymore."

Tian Xiang glanced at him and leaned her head on his shoulder.

The couple just sat there in silence until the sky gradually turned white and the cloud was dyed fiery red.

Tian Xiang: “So beautiful!”

Meng Chengan glanced at her and said, "Yes!"

Tian Xiang: "It feels more beautiful than the sunrise over the sea. This scene can give people an ethereal feeling, like a fairyland."

Meng Chengan: "I've seen the sunrise over the sea and on the top of a mountain. Do you want to see what the sunrise at the end of the world looks like?"

The end of the world!

Tian Xiang: "Can I go?"

Meng Chengan: "I don't know, I'll ask later."

Tian Xiang: "Okay, go ahead and ask. But don't be too hasty. The world is so big, there are many places we haven't been to. Take your time and wait until there's nowhere else to go, then go see what's beyond the end."

"Um."

Meng Cheng'an reached out and put his arm around his wife's shoulders.

Under the first rays of morning sun, the couple planned to travel to the end of the world, a journey that was only realized twenty years later.

During this period, the couple saw off the old man, Hu Honglian and Tian Weibing and their wife, their son got married, and their grandchildren were born.

When she finally took a break, Tian Xiang discovered that half of her hair had turned white.

Tian Xiang told Meng Cheng'an, who also had white hair, that it was time to go to the end of the world. If they didn't go, she was afraid that she would not be able to walk anymore.

Meng Chengan: "I'll make the arrangements."

Half a year later, the two took a plane and then a boat, and it took them half a month in total before they finally reached their destination.

It turns out that the end of the world is like this, pure white everywhere, and no grass grows on the ice field.

The couple stayed there for nearly a month, feeling the wind and snow at the end of the world, taking photos with the aurora, and basking in the sun in the purest place in the world.

This trip was very unforgettable for Tian Xiang, and she had no interest in traveling to other places afterwards.

I always feel that there is no such pure and shocking feeling.

Since then, Tian Xiang gradually stopped going out and joined the community's senior drama troupe. She usually participated in some performances, talked about her grandchildren with the old men and women in the community, and helped others to make connections and act as matchmakers. She also began to enter the retirement mode.

Tian Xiang has been enjoying life, cherishing time and working very hard over the years.

But when her old friends left one by one, she realized that she didn't have much time left.

With this thought, she felt her spirit and body collapse all of a sudden, and she was soon hospitalized for a long time due to her physical condition.

Looking at the bare branches outside the ward, Tian Xiang had a premonition that she was dying and would not live until next year.

She said to Meng Cheng: "I want to go home. The air at home is better and more comfortable."

Beside the bed, Meng Cheng'an, who was serving soup to his wife, said with a smile, "You're not well yet, just bear with it. Didn't Xiaonian say that he has contacted a medical team abroad? I'll go with you to see a doctor there in a few days."

Tian Xiang shook her head, "Don't let him bother you. Let's go home. I have something to tell you."
