[Full text completed] She locked him in a cage, but he grew up in hatred and became her salvation
Shen Hui was a scoundrel who grew up in shame, and Xie Jin was the light that she tried her best to protect.
In order to let him live, she hid her sincerity, locked him in a cage, and personally directed a "play it out and abandon it" drama; in order to clear the way for him, she took a knife and stained it with blood, and disguised the crime of parricide as absurd protection.
She thought that the silent sacrifice would bring him stability for the rest of his life, but she didn't know that years of imprisonment in the dark had already tempered the light in the young man's eyes into bone-gnawing hatred.
When Xie Jin came back, he was full of hostility and wanted to repay her for the years of suffering.
But when the blood on the spiral staircase recirculates and the silver buttons in the palms ache, the truth hidden by hatred comes to the surface little by little——
She was covered in filth and clung to her burning obsession; he hated her to the core, but when he dreamed back at midnight, he thought of the daisies in the alley and the boy's oath that year.
The cage is burned and love turns to ashes. Do the two people in the quagmire want to die together for revenge or belated redemption?

Five stars to myself. Even if there is only one reader who can appreciate the unexplained blanks, it is enough.
