Some people say life is a circle. No matter how far you go or how many detours you take, you'll eventually come back to where you started and reunite with the person you least want to see.
Reunion should be a beautiful word, but to me, it's poison that pierces the heart.
When we met again after two years apart, Jiang Han and I had become strangers who knew each other better than anyone.
He doted on me and loved me, yet he also hated me to the core.
No matter how hard I tried to escape, I couldn't break free of the shackles he had put on my life.
When we first met at school, he dazzled me for a lifetime. But later, all I wanted was to get as far away from him as possible... far enough that I could pretend I'd never known him.
He was poison, addictive and ruinous.
In the end, I'll never forget what Jiang Han said to me: "Jian Qing, don't presume to guess what's in someone's heart, because you'll never know what kind of darkness and desolation lies beneath a peaceful surface."
Jiang Han, I once loved you more than I loved myself.
