During his weekend off, Yan Luo came across a video about a novel that caught his interest.
He looked up the novel and finished reading it in a single day.
He watched the tortured romance between the hero and heroine, the heroine's hatred and the hero's pleas for her to stay, and the heroine setting everything ablaze as the hero chose to die with her.
Yan Luo thought the hero had already suffered so much. All he wanted was someone to be with him.
He had only fallen for a woman, so why was the whole world so hostile toward him?
Even when he finally started to change for the better, it was already too late.
More than anything, Yan Luo felt sorry for the hero and wished he could save him...
Gu Zhi held Yan Luo in his arms inside the house as flames roared around them. He was filled with remorse, regretting everything he had done.
He hated himself and wished he could start over, this time being nothing more than her good brother.
As the flames consumed everything, that was Gu Zhi's final thought.
When he opened his eyes again, he really had returned to their past, to a time when everything could still be made right...
