Shu Yanheng has only ever loved one person in his life, and only that person could destroy him.
Three years ago, he took the acid meant for her, earning her a three-year prison sentence while leaving himself disfigured and an amputee.
Everyone said he was crazy. He only smiled. “She hates me because she thinks I didn’t save her. But I gave her my life, too. She just doesn’t know.”
Three years later, he changed his name and stayed by her side, watching her smile at other men and pretend not to know him.
Until one night, she screamed from a nightmare. He rushed in and held her as she cried, “Shu Yanheng, why are you still alive?”
He didn’t answer. He only held her tighter.
Later, she finally learned that he hadn’t refused to save her that day. He had just gotten the plane tickets when she threw acid on him.
And the destination on those two tickets was Dali, the place she’d casually mentioned wanting to visit.
