When Wei Ruan was eight, her father, Wei Jiangyang, died suddenly.
Her vain and selfish mother, Ruan Fenfang, took her to the capital, Jingdu.
To make amends to the deceased, Lanyu spoiled the little girl as much as he could. She came to address him respectfully as “Uncle Yu.”
In the eyes of others, she was lively, adorable, and carefree.
Only Wei Ruan knew that, from the mistreatment she suffered in the countryside to the bullying she endured in the city, she had always been alone.
Lanyu was the only light in her bleak life, and the forbidden longing she kept buried in her heart.
Then, during her university years, the two accidentally crossed a line when she saved him.
Thinking it was her chance, she threw herself into getting closer to him. Lanyu’s long-suppressed feelings gradually began to show, too…
But when she learned the whole truth and asked him to choose, his hesitation finally brought her heart to rest.
Then she disappeared.
Lanyu went mad.
When he finally found her, all she said was, “Uncle, who are you?”
He panicked.
He wanted to tell her he wasn’t her uncle, but…
You don’t want to be her uncle now? Where were you before?
