After the world collapses, only the most primitive rule remains: survive.
Xie Chen is a shadow in the ruins, silent and powerful, a blunt knife soaked in blood, wielded only for survival.
Until he met Lu Yan in a withered birch forest.
The man was leaning against the rusted truck, holding the last crumpled cigarette between his fingertips, looking as lazy as if he were taking a nap in the afternoon rather than running from the doomsday. He looked up, his eyes filled with sparks that were about to die out, and the corners of his mouth curved in a just right, almost gentle arc.
"Hey," he said, his voice slightly blown by the wind, "Want to hook up?"
A word, a hook. Xie Chen knew it was a trap, but still stepped in.
While others are struggling to survive in the wasteland, they are playing a dangerous game.
Lu Yan is the most skilled fisherman, using his careless smile and broken past as bait to test Xie Chen's bottom line inch by inch.
And Xie Chen is a beast who is willing to take the bait, offering absolute force and loyalty, burning the city for him, imposing martial law for him, and completely surrendering his weakness for him.
"Xie Chen, your life is mine."
"Yeah."
"No death allowed."
"Okay."
When the shadow of the old world comes again, when the madness and fragility under Lu Yan's perfect mask are completely exposed...
Xie Chen just held his hand tightly, pointing the blade at the whole world: "I will subvert your rules. I will fall with you into the abyss."
This is the most silent vow and the craziest romance in the wilderness.
