A story about a yandere man and a sweet, airheaded older woman,
[Gentle florist in public × obsessive secret admirer in private]
[Ten years of lying low and careful plotting, all so she’ll willingly step into his world]
Xia Kui always thought she and Lu Chen first met on a stormy night, when she ducked into his flower shop to escape the rain and was captivated by the black roses he was pruning with his long, slender fingers.
Little did she know, this “chance encounter” was a reunion he had carefully planned for ten years.
“From the day you bandaged that sparrow’s wing, I became a prisoner trapped in the shadows.”
In everyone’s eyes, Lu Chen is a refined and courteous florist. But in a hidden room no one knows about, he has kept every trace of Xia Kui from the past ten years: the hair clip she wore in high school, the diary she threw away in college, even the old stuffed toy she tossed out when she moved.
When Xia Kui discovers the basement walls covered in photographs, the man who always greeted her with a gentle smile finally drops his disguise. He pins her trembling body against the wall of specimens and says:
“Now you know. I was never a good man, but I’ll be the person who loves you most in this world.”
