When Lin Yan took his last breath in the darkness of the mental hospital, all he could think of was Shen Zhixia crying and saying "I'm afraid of you."
In his previous life, he was a rich young man who was paranoid and crazy. He used her tenderness as a bargaining chip and possession as love, and finally drove her to a dead end with his own hands.
When he opened his eyes again, the smell of disinfectant dissipated, he was back in the sophomore class of high school when he was seventeen years old - Shen Zhixia was sitting next to him, wearing the school badge on the collar of her school uniform, lowering her head and carefully drawing cherry blossoms. The sun fell on the tips of her hair, making him want to cry.
This time, Lin Yan hid the madness in his eyes and learned to be a "gentle" guardian:
• Remember that she doesn't eat coriander, so pick out breakfast for her every day;
• Help her avoid all troubles in advance, even reminding the teacher "just in time" to check her homework;
• She calmly chases away boys who approach her, but pretends to be innocent and harmless in front of her.
Shen Zhixia gradually relied on this deskmate who always appeared "by chance" until one day, she found that he had secretly photographed photos of herself hidden in his wallet, every hair she lost was locked in the drawer, and even... He had a spare key to her home.
She backed away and wanted to escape, but was held in his arms. The man's voice was trembling, and there was paranoia in his eyes: "Zhixia, don't leave me again. I can no longer bear the pain of losing you in my previous life."
This is the story of a sickly male protagonist who is reborn and uses all his tenderness to lock the light he lost in his previous life back into his own life.
