Reunion | Thousand Years of Love | The avoidant writer is attacked by a yandere long-haired beauty (full text archived)
Lin Qingye is a writer who has written all the joys and sorrows of the world, but he never believed that he would be loved.
He has an avoidant attachment personality: he longs to be close, but always runs away when love comes. He thought that this would be it for the rest of his life, with one person and one pen, writing until he grew old.
Until he pushed open the door of the flower shop in the ancient town.
Shen Jingci stood among the flowers, with long hair like ink and picturesque eyebrows, and said "Welcome".
Lin Qingye didn't know that this man had been waiting for him for 1,200 years.
Shen Jingci is the land god of the ancient town. He has guarded this land for thousands of years and also guarded an obsession: waiting for someone, someone who will open the door.
He waited.
But the love between God and man comes at a price.
Shen Jingci's demeanor will erode Lin Qingye's vitality. If they continue to be together, Lin Qingye will not survive more than three years.
Breaking up is the last protection he can give.
Five years later, the two met again at a wine party. Lin Qingye poured wine on Shen Jingci's face and sneered: "Mr. Shen, long time no see."
He didn't know that for the past five years, Shen Jingci had been making a cup of hot cocoa every day, letting it cool down, pouring it out, and making another cup.
He didn't know that Shen Jingci had read every one of his books ten times and could recite the most touching passages.
He didn't know that his sister's tuition fees, his copyright fees, and the car he parked outside the bar every time he was drunk were all Shen Jingci.
He hated this man for five years.
Little did he know that this man had loved him for twelve hundred years.
