She is the star he lost, and the light he will spend the rest of his life trying to win back.
Shen Xingchen once thought marrying Lu Jingming was the luckiest thing that had ever happened to her.
He was composed and distinguished, the perfect husband countless socialites dreamed of marrying.
But after the wedding, she discovered the truth:
He had married her only because she looked so much like the woman he could never have.
On the day they divorced, she wiped away her tears and walked away without looking back.
“Lu Jingming, from now on, there will never be another Shen Xingchen in your world.”
Lu Jingming once thought Shen Xingchen was simply the most suitable substitute in his life.
She was quiet and sensible, and never got in the way of his work.
But only after she truly left did he realize:
His world had long since become impossible without her light.
“Xingchen, come back.”
He let go of his pride, his dignity, even his past, all for the chance to make her look back once.
But she only gave him a faint smile, her gaze distant as if he were a stranger.
“Mr. Lu, we ended things a long time ago.”
When they meet again, she already has admirers by her side.
He, meanwhile, has become the madman who waits for her all night in the rain, just for one more glance.
“Xingchen, I was wrong.”
His eyes redden, his voice hoarse.
“You were never anyone's substitute... You are the only light in my life.”
The writing is very good and the description is very detailed. It is worth reading. It's so beautiful that I can't stop watching it. The male and female protagonists are so sweet in the later stages.
The writing style is delicate and the content is close to life without being exaggerated. The author is a master of writing about emotions!
Worth reading: their stories are about pain, growth, forgiveness, and ultimately love.
