Li Niannian always thought Shen Mo was just a little tagalong trailing behind her.
Until rumors nearly crushed her. He stood in front of her, eyes red, shielding her as he said in a low, cold voice:
“I’ll always be here.”
They made it through the ache of unrequited love and the hardships of reality,
only to be pushed to the brink of breaking up by a misunderstanding just as they were about to get married.
When he stood before her again, the tenderness in his eyes was still there.
But this time, he finally said the words he had kept hidden for over a decade:
“Niannian, I look forward to spending the rest of my life with you.”
Those heartbreaking moments, it turned out, were all there to make the sweetness at the end
feel all the more precious.
