Ji Zhi had long known that a man like Pei Yan would never stop for anyone. When she first met him in the incense of Tanzhe Temple, he just thought she was a gust of wind in front of the Buddha. When they met again, she was forced to compromise and stay with him, just to protect her old friend who was far away in Su City. She knew that she was just his forced prey, and she also understood that in this relationship that started with coercion, there was never any sincerity of equality. She hid all her emotions and meekly accompanied him through the winter and summer in the capital. She listened to his soft disdain for her out-of-tune songs and saw the indulgence in his eyes that even he himself was unaware of. So when Pei's mother handed over a check for three million, she accepted it without hesitation and went to the University of Bath in England, leaving this unequal entanglement behind her along with the heavy snow in northern Beijing. She thought this was the end. But on the day she returned to China two years later, the same snow as that year fell in the capital. He came anyway, and no longer used his power to force him. He just called her by her nickname softly from a few steps away: "Jiang Jiang, give me another chance. I won't force you this time." Ji Zhi looked at the paranoia and tenderness that could not be hidden in his eyes, and finally understood—— It turns out that this encounter, which started with force, was destined to be entangled for a lifetime as early as the first meeting in Tanzhe Temple.
