[Two female leads | Tragic romance aesthetics | Terminal illness and heartbreaking love | Mutual salvation | Depression and despair | Parting in life and death]
Jiang Shiqiu’s life had long since rotted into a bottomless abyss.
Her dreams lay shattered, her heart a wasteland. Standing in the darkness, she had long since stopped hoping anyone would save her.
Then Xu Yuan entered her world.
She was a wealthy young lady, bold and dazzling, with a rebellious glint in her eyes, the only star shining in Jiang Shiqiu’s bleak life.
At first, Xu Yuan was proud, awkward, and clumsy. Later, she gently protected Jiang Shiqiu’s sensitive, depressed heart and carefully tended to her wounds.
The two warmed each other and saved each other, believing they could endure every hardship life had to offer.
But fate has never been kind to those who love deeply.
No one knew that the brilliant, gentle star was already terminally ill.
She endured every torment of her illness and every bone-deep pain, staying by Jiang Shiqiu through the final stretch of her youth and giving her every last bit of warmth she had.
Their love had only just taken root, and already the countdown to their farewell had begun.
On the day the snow fell in great sheets, she finally remained forever in Jiang Shiqiu’s arms.
Later, Jiang Shiqiu took her ashes to the seaside where they had promised to meet.
The sea wind howled, and the waves swallowed everything.
Xu Yuan was gone from the world, and so was Jiang Shiqiu, who could not go on living alone.
In the end, the star fell and sank into the deep sea with her. One love, one lifetime, together in life and death.
