Frost and Ashen Bone

[Angsty Substitute Romance]+ [The Pursuit of His Wife in the Crematorium]+ [HE with Scars], the early heartbreak cuts to the bone, and the later angst for the one who caused it is devastating. Bring tissues!

The Su family is wiped out, and because Su Nian looks so much like Xie Jin’s lost love, Xie Heng, he becomes his “substitute prisoner”: Xie Jin smashes his hearing aid, calls him a “fake,” and locks him in a dark room... When Su Nian loses all hope and swallows pills, Xie Jin doesn’t even let him have the right to beg for his life.

After Su Nian fakes his death, Xie Jin’s guilt finally catches up with him. He searches everywhere for Su Nian and tortures himself mercilessly... He refuses to go on living if he can’t find Su Nian...!

Or perhaps Heaven takes pity on him... and he finally manages to move Su Nian. Su Nian gently cuts off his apology: “Xie Jin, we’re together not because you’re making amends, but because I still love you.”
