But then I felt that this answer was too unsatisfactory and had the tendency to talk to death, so I added another sentence.

"But everyone has different reasons for liking the sunset. What is your reason?"

"me?"

Matsumoto Keiko really started to think about it seriously.

He replied after a while, "Maybe it's because the sun is slowly disappearing. Every time I watch the sunset, I feel a little sad for some reason. I always feel that every moment in front of me is so precious, but I can't really catch it.

Everything seems to be a waste at this time, so I can only watch quietly. Especially at the seaside, the colorful clouds in the sky will dye the sea surface into the same color. This strong contrast is breathtakingly beautiful, but it is

It will make people sad again..."

Ning Weimin immediately heard the hidden meaning.

These words seemed like Keiko Matsumoto was lamenting her own situation.

Indeed, so many successful people are like the sun hanging high in the sky, shining brightly for everyone to look up to.

Matsumoto Keiko must also lack confidence in the future, so she is very worried that she will sink slowly like the setting sun until she disappears.

"A few years ago, when I was in the capital, I once accompanied an old man to watch the sunset at the Wanchun Pavilion in Jingshan, the capital. It was the highest point of Jingshan, and it was a sunny day, so the sunset was very atmospheric. Sitting in the pavilion

Looking to the south, the setting sun is slanting on the Forbidden City, and the glazed tiles are really shining with golden light, as if they were made of pure gold. Looking to the north, in addition to the Drum Tower, you can also see the mountains and city buildings in the distance, which are reflected in the sky.

There were pigeons flying over from time to time, and it was so beautiful. At that time, I was only worried that the scenery in front of me was too old, which would make the old people who went with me sad. Thinking of my own age, I hurriedly invited people to visit me while it was still dark.

The old man went down the mountain. Unexpectedly, the old man told me that the reason why he likes to watch the sunset is because the sunset reminds him of the sun tomorrow."

Matsumoto Keiko also realized the implication of Ning Weimin's words and said a little surprised.

"That's very well said. It seems that this old man is really a wise man."

"Yes, the old man does know more than the young man. In fact, what he just advised you to look back on was also what he said."

"Really? It's amazing. This old man understands life very well, like a philosopher. Is he a relative of yours?"

"Well, they are my relatives, but they are not related by blood..."

Matsumoto Keiko looked surprised again.

"What? No blood relationship?"

"Ah, I haven't told you. My parents have passed away a long time ago. This old man has no children. So in the past few years in the capital, he and I have become a family. We are dependent on each other. Of course, apart from relatives,

In fact, he is a strict and knowledgeable teacher to me. I have benefited a lot from him."

Ning Weimin frankly explained his situation in the country.

In fact, his main point is to say that he is lucky to have a good teacher like Kang Shude as his companion.

But Matsumoto Keiko's maternal nature is overflowing, but her attention is focused on other aspects.

"Are you really an orphan? Since when did you lose your father and mother?"

"I can't remember exactly. I was probably sixteen or seventeen years old."

"So early? Don't you have any brothers or sisters?"

"No, but the neighbor's children are also nice to me..."

"How can it be the same? You...you are too pitiful..."

Matsumoto Keiko, who had never thought that Ning Weimin would have a miserable life experience, was full of pity and sympathy, and her eyes were a little moist.

At this time, there was only one impulse in her heart, which was the desire to protect him and help him.

In the past, Matsumoto Keiko always felt wronged and pitiful because of her bad relationship with her father.

But now she realizes that compared with others, she is actually a lucky person. At least her relatives are still alive and healthy.

She simply could not imagine how a helpless orphan in an economically backward country grew up and what he experienced.

Perhaps Ning Weimin's days would have been more miserable than those North Korean miners in the movie "Gate of Youth" she played.

However, it was completely different from Matsumoto Keiko's violent reaction.

As the object of sympathy, Ning Weimin smiled calmly.

And from his appearance, there is no trace of suffering or cynical anger at all.

To be honest, having been born in two lifetimes, he has already become accustomed to his life as an orphan.

If he really had a father and a mother in this life, he wouldn't know how to get along with them.

Not to mention that he has Kang Shude who is both a teacher and a father by his side, so the regrets about family relationships are long gone.

It can be said that he is living such a good life now and is simply a child of God.

Fate has no regrets for him.

It would be shameful for him to remain dissatisfied.

But then again, there is by no means just one way of getting along between men and women.

Everyone knows that a woman will have real feelings when a man loves her. In fact, the same goes for men.

At least that's the case for Ning Weimin.

He has neither a mother nor a sister, and has almost never experienced the tenderness and care given by women.

In this life, he can meet a woman like Matsumoto Keiko, who is older than him, but very beautiful, gentle and considerate, and feels sorry for him. This is his weakness.

So it was okay at first, he could use a smile to show that he didn't care.

But when he saw tears welling up in Matsumoto Keiko's eyes, he felt this long-lost warmth.

His warm smile gradually froze, and his heart began to surge like lava.

Everything that is cold, numb, indifferent, and pretentious in the flashy life seems to have been melted away by the woman in front of me.

All lifelessness, all philistine calculations, all caution, all rules and regulations also melted away at the same time.

But a small oasis of thriving life slowly grew in his heart.

At this moment, he realized that he was still weak, and that a certain point in his heart was already tightly tied to something.

He could no longer behave distantly or indifferently towards this woman.

"Do you want to see the sunset today? The sunset by the sea?"

Ning Weimin pretended to be calm and said.

He quietly changed the subject.

"What? Today?"

"Yes, you just said that the sunset over the sea is the most beautiful. Since I can't take you to see the sunset at Jingshan, how about you take me to see the sunset over the sea?"

"Okay, okay, I really want to. But it's impossible. The beach I mentioned is going to Kamakura. It's too far."

"What about Tokyo Bay? Tokyo Bay should be in time, right? Do you want to go and have a look? The direction here is wrong, so you can't see the sunset. I really want to watch it with you..."

It has to be said that when it comes to the interaction between men and women, Ning Weimin perfectly grasps the heat and propriety.

When a woman least expects it, the fire of surprise is unexpectedly ignited, creating an impulse that makes her want to take risks.

Especially the last sentence, no woman can refuse.

"OK."

Matsumoto Keiko happily responded.
