Xiangzi looked at Xiao Cheng and felt extremely scared inside. 0
 
He had never seen Xiao Cheng like this before. 0
 
He was afraid of what Xiao Cheng might do. 0
 
He pushed Xiao Cheng away and ran out. 0
 
Xiao Cheng stood there in a daze, staring at the pale wall in front of him, finally breaking down in tears. 0
 
Xiao Cheng closed the company. 0
 
He accompanied Pipi, retracing the paths they once walked together. 0
 
He followed the recipes left to him by Yun Duo, diligently learning to cook. 0
 
He made delicious meals, but always felt they were not as good as those made by Yun Duo. 0
 
He began to suffer from insomnia, flipping through Yun Duo's diary, reading it over and over again. 0
 
The diary was filled with her longing for him. 0
 
"March 1st, Wednesday, Sunny. 0
 
"Today, Xiao Cheng took the initiative to talk to me for the first time. He asked me, 'What are you doing here?' Haha, what a silly question. 0
 
"March 8th, Tuesday, Overcast. 0
 
"Today, I saw Xiao Cheng with a girl. They looked very compatible. I think I should give up. But why does my heart still ache so much? 0
 
 
"March 13, Sunday, Sunny. 0
 
"Today, I mustered the courage to confess my feelings to Xiao Cheng. He was silent for a long time before he replied, 'I'm sorry, I can't accept you.' My heart shattered completely. 0
 
"April 7, Friday, Overcast. 0
 
"Today, I saw Xiao Cheng again. He stood under the sunlight, his smile radiant. I knew I would never be able to forget him. 0
 
"…" 0
 
Xiao Cheng had read these diary entries hundreds of times. 0
 
Every word was deeply etched in his heart. 0
 
Only now did he realize that Yun Duo's love for him was far deeper than he had imagined. 0
 
Yun Duo's love was like a gentle stream—simple yet enduring. 0
 
Her longing for him was as vast as the ocean, boundless and infinite. 0
 
Xiao Cheng closed his eyes, and her smiling face filled his mind. 0
 
Her smile was warm and gentle, like a spring breeze, intoxicating him. 0
 
He seemed to see her again, standing in front of him, softly saying, "Xiao Cheng, I love you." 0
 
Time flies, and the years pass swiftly. 0
 
Pipi was also gradually aging. 0
 
It had always been a stray dog, already suffering from illness." 0
 
 
If it weren't for the clouds bringing it home, it probably wouldn't have lived for two more years. 0
 
Now, it no longer goes outside. 0
 
It curls up on the cloud's pillow, sleeping deeply. 0
 
Its body has lost the vitality of its past. 0
 
Xiao Cheng no longer goes out either, spending each day with Pipi. 0
 
He knows that Pipi's life is also coming to an end. 0
 
Pipi eventually left. 0
 
On the day it could no longer move, Xiao Cheng was by its side. 0
 
With its last bit of strength, it trembled to stand up and called out in a certain direction a few times. 0
 
Then, it smiled. 0
 
Its tail wagged weakly. 0
 
However, this smile and wagging tail lasted only for a few seconds. 0
 
Pipi then fell silent, quietly lying on the bed. 0
 
Xiao Cheng knew that it had been taken away by the clouds. 0
 
They finally met again. 0
 
 
Xiao Cheng gently stroked Pipi's head and softly said, "Pipi, you went to find her too, didn't you?" 0
 
Pipi could no longer hear his words, but the smile at the corner of its mouth still remained. 0
 
"Pipi, thank you for staying with her for so long." 0
 
"Pipi, I hope you can be happy in another world." 0
 
Xiao Cheng looked at Pipi, a faint smile appearing on his lips. 0
 
He knew he was about to leave as well. 0
 
His consciousness gradually blurred. 0
 
Before he completely lost awareness, images suddenly surfaced in his mind of everything the cloud felt while waiting for death. 0
 
Pain, loneliness, helplessness, fear, anticipation... 0
 
These feelings washed over him like a tide. 0
 
He finally understood the suffering the cloud experienced before its end. 0
 
That pain came crashing in like waves, slowly engulfing his consciousness. 0
