In the summer of 2018, Wen Xu was going through a painful period in her life when fate brought her together with Su Donghe.
A love destined by fate is precious beyond measure, but for Wen Xu, fresh out of college, it all came too suddenly. She needed time to process it, so she dodged him at first, then kept on avoiding him. Only later did she learn that Su Donghe had begged for this very fate with three bows and nine kowtows at a temple.
“In another city, where light and shadow crossed, I found a rose in full color.”
“I love you because you are you. That’s all.”
