In her previous life, Liu Hanyu lived a miserable, wretched existence.
Her own ignorance and recklessness left her battered and broken. She gave up on herself and eventually starved to death. When she opened her eyes again, she was fifteen once more. In this life, she swore to stay away from every tragedy: make money, buy up property, get into a top university, and never repeat her mistakes.
The only person she couldn’t bring herself to leave behind was her childhood friend, Wu Yufan, and his gentle warmth.
He stayed up late solving problems with her, watched over her all night when she had nightmares, and after the college entrance exams, they both enrolled at neighboring universities. She thought that at last, this life would be peaceful and happy.
Until one summer afternoon, when she saved a man covered in blood.
Officer Xie Jingzhe had been gravely wounded on a mission. She casually bandaged him, unaware that she had become the cinnabar mole he could never erase from his heart. After an injury forced him to leave the military, he came to her city and quietly, stubbornly stayed by her side.
College life should have been peaceful, but her mother’s sudden arrival tore it all apart.
Arguments, shoving, the shrill sound of brakes: Liu Hanyu’s world plunged into darkness amid excruciating pain. After losing her sight, she cruelly pushed Wu Yufan away. “I don’t love you anymore. Let me go, and I’ll let you go.” But just then, Xie Jingzhe forcefully entered her life. “Come with me. I’ll take care of you.”
Two men, two utterly different kinds of love.
Wu Yufan searched for her like a madman, while Xie Jingzhe silently protected her. In the darkness, Liu Hanyu wavered for the first time. Should she choose her childhood friend’s devoted love, or the military officer’s obsession etched into his very bones?
When hope of regaining her sight appears, she has to make a choice…
Return to the young man who waited for her all these years, stay with the man who gave everything up for her, or choose neither…
