Synopsis:
A humble, unforgettable first love + a cool, restrained CEO
It should have been a beautiful youth spent in school, but her father's prison sentence meant Gu Nianhe could never look at Jiang Si the same way again. Jiang Si could not accept it either. Why had the father of the girl he had thought he would love for the rest of his life killed the mother who had raised him alone, leaving his little sister permanently disabled in the same accident?
Jiang Si: “Gu Nianhe, why? Why?! We have no future. There will never be a future for us again.”
Gu Nianhe: “A Si, I'll spend my whole life atoning. Forget me.”
Through countless days and nights that followed, Gu Nianhe went from a pampered young lady who had never lifted a finger to a devout penitent. As for Jiang Si, his dreams shifted from walking around the school track hand in hand with Gu Nianhe to seeing his mother's disfigured body lying in front of him. He often woke in the middle of the night and sat there until dawn.
When they meet again after years apart, all Gu Nianhe wants is to escape, once she has atoned.
“I won't let you forget me for the rest of your life. Even if I die, I'll keep you trapped by my side.”
They had both lost the pride they once had, and neither was the person they had been at the beginning.
