I am Shen Zhixia, a painter who is about to become blind.
During the countdown with blurred vision, the person I loved most, Gu Yu, handed over the breakup agreement. He said that I was not worthy of him as a Guqin restorer, and that the relationship between us was just a mispayment.
I held on to the remaining light and struggled on the edge of darkness, but I didn't know that behind that decisive breakup, there was his deepest forbearance. He sold his family heirloom Guqin, which he regarded as his life, just to raise the sky-high medical expenses for me; he hid where I couldn't see, shielding me from all wind and rain, but never showed his face.
When I finally saw the light again, what I saw was that he had exhausted all his efforts and looked increasingly haggard. Those so-called "unloves" are all protective shells woven by his loneliness and sacrifice.
It turns out that the most affectionate protection is never a grand promise, but knowing that you will be misunderstood and still willing to give everything to you. This time, I will walk towards you and turn the missed time into the sweetness of staying together.
