Xiao Yi stood on the dilapidated street. The woman before him, once so gentle and considerate, now seemed so glaring to him. Her face, once a source of comfort, now seemed strange and ridiculous to him. He thought of his past self, knowing she had sent him a private message, yet choosing to be tolerant. After all, in this apocalyptic world, everyone harbored their own hidden agendas, and wanting to survive was understandable.
However, she now disappointed him. The way she ate was so ugly, like a hungry wolf, greedily devouring everything. She was no longer the gentle little woman in his heart, but a woman who would do anything to survive.
Xiao Yi couldn't help but recall the moment they first met. Back then, her eyes sparkled with love and anticipation for life, and her smile was like the spring sunshine, warm and bright. He remembered her once saying to him, "In this apocalypse, we must all learn to be strong and protect ourselves." Back then, he was deeply moved by her resilience and optimism, believing they could navigate this long apocalypse together.
However, reality was cruel. The cruelty of the apocalypse had transformed everyone beyond recognition. He looked at her, a sense of sadness welling up in his heart. He remembered her former gentleness and kindness, and the efforts she had made to survive. Yet, she now felt strange and alienated to him.
Xiao Yi couldn't help but fall into deep thought. He remembered his original intention, and his longing and expectation for the end of the world. He remembered what he had said to her: "No matter how cruel the end of the world is, we must stick to our beliefs and principles." However, now he saw her betrayal and change.
He thought of her private messages, those that had once made him choose to forgive her. He thought of her greed and selfishness, those flaws that he had once overlooked. He thought of her smile, that smile that had once been as warm as the sun, but now seemed so fake and artificial.
A complex emotion surged in Xiao Yi's heart. He felt angry, disappointed, and even more so, a deep sense of powerlessness. He remembered her goodness, but also her badness. He remembered her smile, but also her tears. He remembered her kindness, but also her selfishness. He remembered her gentleness, but also her indifference.
In the apocalypse, everyone is struggling to survive. He understands that everything she does is to survive in this cruel world. However, this does not mean that he can accept her betrayal and change. He cannot accept her losing herself for survival, and he cannot accept her betraying her former beliefs and principles for the sake of profit.
Xiao Yi looked at the woman in front of him, his heart filled with mixed emotions. He felt heartache, helplessness, and even a deep sadness. He thought of the good times they had, the dreams and expectations they had. However, now everything has become a bubble. Their dreams have been shattered, and their feelings have deteriorated.
Xiao Yi took a deep breath and tried to calm his emotions. He knew that he could no longer indulge in the beauty of the past. He had to face reality, face her changes and betrayal. He had to make a choice, choose whether to continue, choose whether to continue to believe in her.
However, no matter what choice he made, he knew that nothing could go back to the way it was. Their relationship had been fractured and could not be repaired. Their trust had been broken and could not be rebuilt.
Xiao Yi looked at the woman in front of him, his heart filled with helplessness and sadness. He understood that he could no longer look at her the same way as before. She was no longer the gentle little woman in his heart, but a strange and ridiculous woman.
In the apocalypse, everyone harbors their own hidden agenda. He knew he couldn't change her thoughts or actions. He could only be himself, upholding his beliefs and principles. He could only hope that, in this cruel world, they could find their own paths and their own futures.
Xiao Yi turned and left, leaving the ridiculous woman behind. He knew that the story between them was over. He could only hope that in the days to come, they would both be able to find their own happiness and peace.
In this ever-changing world, the emotional exchange between people can often seem complex and elusive. Sometimes, a simple sentence can reveal deep emotions. The conversation between Si Feifei and Xiao Yi is a typical example.
Si Feifei is a straightforward and honest woman. Her every move and every word is full of truth and directness. Unlike those who are good at concealing their true thoughts, she chooses to express her thoughts directly. When she was impressed by Xiao Yi's ability, she did not beat around the bush, but went straight to Xiao Yi and expressed her admiration and expectations.
"I'm attracted to your abilities." These words are simple and direct, without any embellishment or disguise. Si Feifei's candor makes one admire her courage and sincerity. In a world filled with hypocrisy and lies, being able to express one's thoughts so directly does require a certain amount of courage and determination.
Compared to Si Feifei's directness, the attitudes of others seem somewhat artificial and false. For various reasons, they may conceal their true thoughts, choosing to express their intentions in euphemistic or ambiguous ways. However, this approach often makes it difficult to discern the other person's true intentions, leading to misunderstandings and estrangement.
Si Feifei not only directly expresses her admiration but also explicitly states that she isn't seeking to curry favor with Xiao Yi, but rather hopes that he will remember her in times of trouble. This statement further demonstrates her sincerity and independence. She doesn't rely on Xiao Yi's abilities for protection, but rather hopes to establish a relationship with him based on equality and respect. This frank and independent attitude cannot help but make her courage and wisdom admired.
