Suddenly, the scenery changed and Tang Xi saw two people standing by the sea. One of them was Qiao Liang and the other was his best friend Qin Xinying, who seemed to be talking to the first one hysterically, but Qiao Liang remained expressionless and only stared at the sea… Tang Xi swam towards him as hard as she could only to find it. she could not move no matter how hard she tried. Then the scene changed again and he was in a villa where Qiao Liang was holding a small box with his finger in it…

She lay slumped beside the bed and cried ...

Tears continued to fall from Tang Xi's eyes as she shouted loudly, “Qiao Liang! Qiao Liang's! I'm here! Me here. See me! Please look at me! Huu hu…"

She saw with her own eyes the scene of Qiao Liang curling up on the bed, clutching her heart, crying so helplessly as she endlessly called out that she loved him and asked him to come back to her. He felt his heart ache as if it was gripped by a big hand and he cried out in despair, “Qiao Liang, look at me. I really don't die. Don't be sad, okay?”

As he lay on the bed, Qiao Liang suddenly got up and walked into the bathroom. Tang Xi rushed to follow him, but when she saw Qiao Liang punching the mirror in the bathroom and saw his hand turn red with blood, she regretted doing so. "Qiao Liang, I beg of you. Don't hurt yourself like that... It's all my fault. If I went into my email box, I'd know how you loved me for so many years, and I wouldn't be so hard-hearted as to refuse to contact you. Please... don't hurt yourself like this.” Tang Xi came forward to grab Qiao Liang's hand, only to find that he couldn't hold it…

He was just a ghost now and could do nothing!

Tang Xi was in a lot of pain as she helplessly looked at her hand. Why is this happening? He could not touch Qiao Liang... Someone help him...

He had never been so helpless before, even when he found himself dead and reincarnated as Xiao Rou, but now he felt extremely helpless. He could not touch Qiao Liang, and he could not see him. He hurt himself ... but there was nothing he could do!

He crouched down beside Qiao Liang, whose body was soaked, the blood from his hands kept flowing and was washed away by the flowing water…

It had been a long time before Qiao Liang finally stood up, and then he heard the sound of the phone ringing ... Qiao Liang picked up the phone on his bathrobe, and then he saw the look on his face gradually changing. He shouted in a hoarse voice, "Who are you?"

Tang Xi nodded in surprise and joy. He threw himself at her and nodded desperately, saying, “This is me. Ah Liang, it's me! Can you see me? You saw me, right? I'm Xixi. Lookatme…"

"Tang Xi?" Qiao Liang's voice trembled as if he did not believe that the person on the other end of the phone was Tang Xi, but he had a premonition and felt a shock coming from the bottom of his heart. Is that really Tang Xi? She looked at her injured hand as she asked, "Is this Tang Xi?"

Tang Xi nodded and reached out to touch Qiao Liang's face, “This is me. I'm here next to you. Look at me.. Ah Liang, look at me..”.

Suddenly, Qiao Liang threw away his phone and sat down drooping on the bed. Her eyes were red, she mocked herself in a low voice, “She is dead. How could he call you? Qiao Liang, stop dreaming! What makes you think that you can live in your dreams forever?”

“Ah Liang, you are not! You are not living in a dream. I'm by your side! I'm here next to you!" Tang Xi shouted wildly after hearing Qiao Liang's lifeless words, but she couldn't hear what he said ... Tang Xi suddenly stood up and tried to break something to attract her attention, only to find that she could not touch anything ...

He crouched down beside Qiao Liang, holding his head sadly. "Why did this happen ... Why this happened ..."

Looking at the time and the email sender, Tang Xi cried and shouted. It happened that day…

Suddenly, his vision turned black and the entire scene changed again. He came to Long Beach who was no stranger to him. He looked around and saw Qiao Liang walking alone by the sea. He doesn't look very good. His beard was rather long and did not seem to be shaved for quite some time, which made him seem like a person who had experienced a change.

Tang Xi was no longer so emotional after the villa scene. He quietly followed Qiao Liang, watching him walk along the beach step by step and occasionally stopping to look at him as if he was seen.

Tang Xi, with a faint smile on her face, extended her hand and asked gently, "Why are you smiling?"

Qiao Liang smiled gently and tidied the hair around his ears, saying gently, “I smiled because today's illusion is so real. You smile at me.”

Tang Xi felt her heart ache again. It turned out that he was walking peacefully on the beach, not because he had forgotten about it, but because he was living in a dream that he had intertwined for himself. He fantasizes that he is by her side. He hugged Qiao Liang and whispered, “This is not an illusion. I'm by your side. Ah Liang, you can see me, right?”

"Yes, I can see you, so it's not an illusion." Qiao Liang reached out to hug Tang Xi, but Tang Xi saw that he was hugging the air, and his tears fell uncontrollably ...

How... how did this happen?

He could see it, and he had just caught his hand. Why can't he touch her! Wh why?

Qiao Liang suddenly went into the sea, and Tang Xi shouted in fear, "Ah Liang, it's dark now so let's go home. The sea is very cold, do not go to sea!”

Qiao Liang looked to the side and then behind him. Suddenly, he frowned, and then nodded with a smile, saying, “OK, let's go back. Let's go back for dinner. Xixi, are you hungry?”

Tang Xi nodded. "I'm hungry. I want to eat lobster. Let's go back to eating lobster, okay? Don't stay by the sea.”

Tang Xi was really scared. He was afraid that Qiao Liang would commit suicide. He tried to injure himself by walking into the sea ...

He reached out to grab the hand of Qiao Liang, who was holding his hand and said softly, “We've been here for a few days. Xixi, come back to China with me in two days, okay? Long Beach is not fun.”
