The snow at the end of Qingwa Alley melted quietly in the dusk, just like the moment when Cen Yao bumped into Jin He - she was an interior designer who built a wall of her heart with design drafts, and her fingertips still had calluses from work and study; he was a cold decision-maker in charge of the family empire, with lies hidden in his eyes that he had not told eight years ago.
Old campus chapter: She was a weed in the cracks, relying on scholarships and part-time jobs to survive the cold winter of her parents' divorce, but she tasted the warmth of light in Jin Pi's preference; he was the proud son of heaven, but he was willing to fight against the family for her, and "protect her" was engraved in his bones and blood. Until the night before the college entrance examination, a "breakup" text message tore everything apart, and she fled with the scar of "abandonment". He signed outside the intensive care unit, locking the truth into the grave.
The reunion was a surprise: Eight years later, her design draft bumped into his business map, the notches on the old desk, the badge from the milk tea shop, the library card... The secrets pickled by the years began to ferment: the betrayal he forged was the knife that the family threatened with her life; under the wall she built, there was the desire for love that even she dared not touch.
When the green tiles were covered with snow, he was the only light in her gloomy youth; when the snow melted and they reunited, she became the antidote to his obsession like a trapped beast. When the rusty misunderstanding was soaked by the spring tide, they finally understood that there were some cracks to let the light in again...
