Seven years of secret love came to an end when her eyes lit up for someone else.
One night of drunken loss of control drew him into a tangled affair with her best friend, Zhou Liluo.
When Shen Jia was left heartbroken after a breakup, Zhou Liluo proposed a plan that seemed to benefit them both: “You take advantage of her vulnerability, and I’ll give you a push.”
He went along with their little scheme, thinking his target was still the woman he had admired from afar for seven years.
Until borrowed warmth became an addiction he couldn’t quit,
until the sweet nothings in their “pretend romance” burned hotter than real feelings,
until her smile became the one he instinctively longed for.
When she panicked and ran away after an unexpected pregnancy, only then did the overwhelming fear make him realize:
The person he had been giving everything to pursue was someone else entirely.
So he tore up every scheme and hesitation with his own hands,
traveling a thousand miles just to tell her the words he had put off for far too long: “You’re the one I love.”
