Jiang Qing had been in love with her childhood sweetheart Yuan Li for over a decade. Everyone said they were meant to be.

She thought they would get married too.

That is, until the eve of their engagement, when Yuan Li put his arm around another woman and introduced her: “This is my girlfriend.”

Jiang Qing became a laughingstock throughout Shanghai.

After decisively walking away,

Jiang Qing cut off contact and stopped loving Yuan Li.

But Yuan Li regretted it and said he would marry no one but her.

He planned the grandest proposal ceremony in the entire city, but the flowers had all been scattered and Jiang Qing still hadn’t shown up.

Later, someone took a photo of her bringing Gu Yutang a late-night snack.

Jiang Qing thought her reunion with Gu Yutang was just a coincidence.

She thought he was helping her simply because he was a good person.

Until she discovered that Gu Yutang had secretly kept their entire youth in his basement.

On a summer night, his gaze was obsessive as he knelt before her and reverently took her hand.

“If you’ll be with me, I’ll give you my life.”
