Name: After He Was Forced to Break Up, He Didn't Have Long to Live
Author: Yu Zhi Qiu

Synopsis

[Reunion After Years Apart = Mending a Broken Relationship]

Six years ago, nineteen-year-old piano prodigy Shen Yu fell in love with Shi Yan, the twenty-year-old heir to the Shi family. But Shi Yan’s grandfather threatened to ruin his future unless they broke up. Shen Yu left the country with a broken heart. Six years later, terminally ill and with little time left, he decided to return home, hoping only to see Shi Yan one last time.

By then, Shi Yan had become a ruthless business tycoon, still unable to let go of Shen Yu’s “betrayal.” Shen Yu silently bore everything, determined to fulfill his last wish.

When the truth came to light, Shi Yan found a drawer full of Shen Yu’s cancer medication and the photograph of them taken when Shen Yu started college at eighteen, which he had treasured all these years. Only then did Shi Yan understand what he had missed and how badly he had hurt Shen Yu. The mirror was broken. Could it ever be made whole again? With terminal illness standing between them, how could they make up for six lost years and all the love and resentment that had gone awry?

Please, Dual Male Leads, Angst in the Beginning and Sweetness Later, Happy Ending, Thanks!

Yeah, some angst early on is fine, as long as it doesn't mess with my sense of right and wrong. Then give me the ex-chasing-her-to-hell arc later, but don't make it too extreme.
