[Warm, composed diplomat × Stubborn, cool-headed doctor] [Healing each other] [Some school life, but mainly their adult years]
Su Ning was free-spirited, passionate, brave, and unyielding. But she was also insecure, conflicted, fragile, and broken. So when that radiant boy entered her world, she longed for him even as she resisted. She didn't want to see a god fall from his altar, even if that meant she would remain trapped in darkness forever...
From the first time Pei Yu met Su Ning, he felt there was something different about her. So when they met again later, the usually aloof young master Pei pursued her passionately. One winter, he noticed the girl sitting beside him rubbing her knees from time to time. The next day, he brought an extra coat and handed it to her. “Could you hold this for me? I don't have room for it.”
Everyone knew Pei Yu liked Su Ning. He would wait at her bus stop and claim it was a coincidence that he was giving her a ride. He would throw away the love letters in her desk. And when he brought Su Ning breakfast, he would bring some for all the girls nearby, too...
Years later, as Su Ning looked at the man before her, she could still remember the boy who had used a trip to the convenience store as an excuse to bring her an umbrella. “Su Ning, I've been waiting for you all this time.”
