The roommate who just moved in is the man from Zhou Zhimian’s night.
His name is Zhang Yan. He’s taciturn, capable, polite, and impeccably composed.
It’s all too much of a coincidence: he was the man that night, he’s her new roommate, and he’s also the one holding up her project.
He’s always around her, shielding her from drinks, getting her out of tight spots, and quietly handing her the evidence she needs to turn the tables when someone frames her.
She thinks this is the beginning of love.
Until one day, he tells her he’s leaving. She doesn’t know where he’s going or when he’ll be back. He leaves her only four words: Don’t wait for me.
She doesn’t wail or break down. When her project is blocked, she clears the hurdles herself. When she’s framed, she turns the tables with her own hands. When he vanishes, she slowly digs up all his secrets.
Only later does Zhou Zhimian realize that none of it had been an accident from the very beginning.
But what she really wants to know is this: why couldn’t he even bring himself to say, “I’ll come back”?
Seven people. One shared house.
Some are hunters disguised as prey; others are pawns who walked straight into the trap.
