A Love Confession for the Ages

“Lu Chenyuan, I hope your future is bright, and I hope you never forgive me.”

Seven years ago, Su Qingyan disappeared without a word, leaving Lu Chenyuan waiting alone in the rain for three days. Seven years later, she is a nurse in the palliative care ward at Anning Hospital, while he is the youngest brilliant director in cardiac surgery. They meet again at a cold operating table. Convinced she came back for money, he makes things difficult for her at every turn. She silently bears every misunderstanding. As the countdown runs on her rare terminal illness, she resolves his disputes with patients, searches for his long-lost younger sister, and clears the way for his career.

Only on the day she dies does Lu Chenyuan learn from her letter that she was diagnosed with a hereditary disease seven years ago and left because she couldn’t bear to hold him back. She returned seven years later to spend what little time she had left protecting his pride. Holding the urn of ashes she had planned for all along, he finally understands: “She loved me with her life twice, once when she was sixteen and once when she was twenty-seven, and I failed to recognize it either time.”
