[Dual Male Leads + Republican-Era China + A Hateful Young Master Forced to Become a Plaything VS His Childhood Friend, Back from Studying Abroad with a Mysterious Identity + BE]
In an age torn apart by war, they grew up together, only to be separated by an accident. When they reunite years later, each has become the other’s only concern. But the times are so unpredictable, and one event after another keeps unfolding. How can they weigh love for their country against personal vengeance? What will become of the lives caught between them, and those nights spent embracing?
[I will not leave the green mountains; we will stay by each other’s side.]
[I know you’ve kept a lot from me, but it doesn’t matter. There are many things you don’t want to talk about, so I won’t ask. When you’re ready to tell me, I’ll listen. I just hope you won’t make me wait too long. I’m afraid I won’t be able to wait.]

[She broke her promise only this once. On this night of reunion, she never came back.]

[It’s enough for my hands alone to be stained by these things. You still have a bright future ahead of you.]
[Only by becoming the sharpest blade can he earn the blade wielder’s favor. The only thing he has to do is strike wherever his master points him.]
At the very end, the mountains remained unchanged and the waters flowed on. At last, everything was over, and the souls of the departed could rest in peace.
