Chapter 193 I don’t know when
Once upon a time, in the eons, a man like this quietly appeared. He seemed to have stepped out of a painting, with an upright figure and a refined demeanor. But the most unforgettable thing about him was his face, always brimming with a smile as warm and gentle as the spring sun.
Whenever people saw this man, they seemed to feel a gentle power gently brushing across their hearts, making them intoxicated. His smile was not the kind of unbridled laughter, but rather a subtle and restrained one, like the ripples on the lake caused by a gentle breeze, delicate and moving.
This smile seemed to possess a magical power that could dispel gloom and bring hope and joy. No matter if someone was in trouble or feeling down, as long as they saw his smile like the warm spring sun, a touch of warmth would surge in their hearts, rekindling their love and courage for life.
That smile was like the warmest spring sunshine, gently falling upon our hearts; or like a cool summer breeze, gently caressing our faces. It seemed to hold a mysterious and powerful magic that could penetrate layers of barriers and reach the depths of our souls.
When people first see this smile, they are captivated, as if enveloped by an invisible force. This sense of intimacy, like the reunion of an old friend after a long separation, is natural and genuine, drawing people closer to experience even more warmth and care. At the same time, the comfort brought by this smile is like a stream of clear water, nourishing the weary soul, allowing people to forget all worries and stress and immerse themselves in this peaceful and tranquil atmosphere. Anyone who is fortunate enough to witness such a smile will be instantly captivated and intoxicated.
No matter who they were, their gazes meeting his were instantly captivated by his smile, as radiant as the warm spring sun. It seemed as if that smile possessed a magical power, capable of piercing the deepest darkness of the human heart, spreading warmth and joy to every corner. Even a fleeting glance was enough to captivate them, a gentle warmth coursing through their hearts. This warmth began as a subtle trickle, but as his smile continued to blossom, it gradually gathered into a mighty river, sweeping across their entire soul, bringing a feeling of immense comfort, joy, and peace of mind.
However, since when, this man has changed his appearance, becoming so cold that people dare not approach him.
——Because the person standing in front of them at this moment has completely changed his appearance!
The aura of indifference that continuously emanated from his body was like a raging, biting, and whistling cold wind in the dead of winter. It was so cold that there was no warmth at all, and so heartless that it was creepy.
His eyes, once bright as stars, always gleaming with kindness and warmth, now seemed shrouded in a thick haze, devoid of their former brilliance. In their place, a gaze pierced the bone, as cold and deep as a thousand years of ice. This gaze seemed to penetrate the soul, chilling the very core. When he gazed at someone with this gaze, it was as if they were merely an inanimate object, not a human being. Anyone who met his gaze felt a deep chill well up in their heart, and they involuntarily avoided his gaze.
Those eyes were deep and dark, like two ice cellars hidden in the dark abyss, extremely cold and bottomless. When someone inadvertently met those eyes, an irresistible chill would surge over them like a tidal wave. The chill seemed to penetrate the body, reaching deep into the bone marrow, making people shiver involuntarily.
Just a brief eye contact was enough to send a shudder through the depths of one's soul, as if the bone-chilling chill possessed some mysterious power that could freeze one's soul as well, plunging it into endless cold and silence.
The corners of his mouth, once slightly upturned with a touch of playfulness and confidence, now seemed to be struck by a sudden storm, tightly tugged by a mysterious and powerful invisible force. This force, relentless and merciless, pulled the corners of his mouth downward, tightly pursing it shut, leaving no trace of a gap. His tightly closed lips were as straight as a finely polished ruler, breathtakingly straight. The corners of his mouth that once shone with playfulness and confidence were now gone, replaced by a heart-wrenching silence and oppression.
Once upon a time, there was a smile that seemed to possess endless charm, enough to captivate all beings in the world. This smile was like the brilliant, gentle, and warm sunshine of spring, gently falling upon people's hearts, bringing unparalleled warmth and comfort.
The light and warmth it radiates can easily penetrate the thick layer of ice deep in people's hearts. Whether they are people who have experienced vicissitudes of life and weathered the frost, or those who harbor resentment and are cold and heartless, when they see this smile, they will be involuntarily attracted to it and feel an unprecedented warmth and strength.
This smile seems to have a magical power that can make people forget all worries and sorrows and immerse themselves in a peaceful and harmonious atmosphere. It is like a clear spring, slowly flowing through people's long-dried hearts, nourishing every corner and awakening long-dormant beautiful emotions.
Yet, at this very moment, those once tightly closed lips suddenly emanated an aura completely different from before. This aura, as chilling as the Nine Netherworlds of Hell, was chilling and chilling. It was like an invisible wall of frost, ruthlessly stretching before everyone, freezing the air around them and making it almost impossible to breathe. Anyone who came even slightly closer could feel the chill that penetrated their very bones, as if they were trapped in an icy cellar.
This straight, narrow line, like a bottomless, impassable chasm, stood mercilessly between him and the diverse people and complexities of the world around him. Like an invisible wall, this chasm completely separated him, leaving him feeling utterly lonely and helpless. No matter how hard he tried to approach others or integrate himself into his surroundings, he was always blocked by this chasm, unable to truly connect with them. Like an icy barrier, it mercilessly cut off his access to the outside world, forcing him to stand silently, gazing from afar at the bustling, yet unreachable, world on the other side.
