Fencheng.
A small border town with a relatively small population.
The concept of a frontier is viewed from the perspective of ordinary people; Fencheng, located on the coast, was considered a frontier area.
However, from the perspective of the world of the awakened, there is another interpretation.
This place, close to the mysterious ocean, is the edge where the human world and extraordinary creatures meet!
"Is this why there have always been rumors of various paranormal events since the beginning?"
It's not even a rumor; Song Yishun himself was a firsthand witness to those paranormal events.
Some extraordinary beings, who managed to slip into the human world undetected, caused various disturbances, whether intentionally or unintentionally.
Information that was not controlled and spread naturally became rumors, like urban legends.
Like several other small border towns not far away, Fencheng suffers from a severe brain drain due to a lack of good job opportunities.
Young people have all gone to big cities to seek better opportunities, leaving behind only some elderly people and some young people who still want to build up their hometowns.
An old town with no opportunities and no prospects.
But this seemingly lifeless city is something Song Yishun can't bear to leave, and he's been thinking about returning to it for so many years.
"It sounds a bit strange for me to say this, but I really am a sentimental person."
With a sigh, Song Yi hailed a taxi; he couldn't wait to go home!
...
Upon returning to his hometown, Song Yishun opened the door with practiced ease and couldn't help but shout:
"Dad! Mom! I'm home!"
Card.
Startled by the sudden noise, the mother, who was clearing the dishes, loosened her grip and smashed a plate.
She wanted to glare at him, but she was stunned when she saw who had returned.
The mother's expression shifted between excitement and sadness, but finally she hid all the negativity and gave a bright smile.
"Oh!? Isn't this my good son! How come you knew he was coming back!"
A mother worries when her child travels far away; parents are always concerned that their child may suffer mistreatment while away from home.
"Old man! Your son is back! Come out and see!"
"Hurry up! All you do is rush me. How could I not hear you when you're yelling so loudly?"
Accompanied by a familiar voice, his father slowly walked out of the house, looked him up and down, and nodded.
"Yes, he's starting to look like a man."
My father is getting old.
The straight back I remember now looks quite hunched, and I've started wearing reading glasses.
Seeing his parents grow old, Song Yishun's previously high spirits subsided. He pulled them into a tight embrace and whispered:
"We will never be apart again."
I'm back, and it won't happen again.
"Silly child, what are you saying?"
As usual, she patted his head and suddenly said:
"Have you seen Xiaomeng since you got back? No, you haven't. Go see her, she's been waiting for you for a long time!"
"I'll go in a bit..."
"What are you waiting for!"
Song Yishun, who was originally planning to wait a while before going out, was pushed out the door by her parents before she could even wait.
"Go quickly!"
Turning around, he saw the two elderly people leaning against the door, looking at him with encouraging eyes.
Go!
"Hurry up, or you'll be too late."
...
"When does Xiaomeng get off work?"
Although Song Yishun still remembered where his girlfriend worked, he had forgotten the exact time she got off work.
"I'm such a bad boyfriend!"
After hesitating for a moment, Song Yishun blushed and walked into the nearest flower shop. Under the shop assistant's doting smile, she chose the most flamboyant bouquet of roses.
He had just arrived at the place with the bouquet when he saw Xiaomeng walking out from there.
Their eyes met, and the two, who were unprepared, were completely stunned.
"you……"
"I'm back!"
With a slightly trembling voice, Song Yishun turned his head away shyly, like a boy experiencing his first love.
But he quickly realized that now was not the time to be shy, so he took a deep breath.
Song Yishun! Act like a man!
!
"I'm back... huh!?"
He mustered his courage to look back, only to find that Xiao Meng, who had been in front of him just moments before, was gone.
!
!
Just then, he suddenly realized that the bouquet of flowers he had hidden behind him had been gently taken away.
"So, this is for me?"
Swallowing hard, Song Yi's gaze flickered for a moment, but she still said firmly:
"Uh, yes."
Looking at the bouquet, Xiaomeng was overjoyed, but still said:
"Hmm... they're all roses. I don't really like things that are so ostentatious, but I'll accept them because of your thoughtfulness."
Setting the bouquet aside, Xiao Meng looked at Song Yishun meaningfully and asked:
"Is there anything else you want to say to me?"
Anything else?
Song Yishun, who is usually a straight man, did not let his partner down at this moment.
"Ah! Yes! There are some!"
Disrupted from his rhythm, Song Yi frantically rummaged in his pockets for a while before finally finding the gift he had prepared long ago.
Before he could even take out the diamond ring he had prepared, he could no longer control his emotions and said, his voice trembling with emotion:
"Although it's a bit late and the time isn't ideal, will you marry me?"
