Zhuang Xueyan once had her fortune told. The fortune-teller said she would meet her destined partner after turning twenty-two.
She didn't believe it. She was certain she'd already met him when she was eighteen.
The year Zhuang Xueyan took her college entrance exams, she moved into Song Peiqing's home.
They were engaged, so they were cautious around each other in every way, afraid to make the slightest misstep.
Only after their engagement was called off did Zhuang Xueyan dare to show him her true feelings.
The broken engagement also made her reconsider the true nature of their relationship.
Song Peiqing, too, met the one meant for him.
That person wasn't her.
Zhuang Xueyan suddenly realized that their time together had been no more than a fleeting illusion, as unreal as the morning mist.
Later, after returning from her studies abroad, she was reunited with the man who had once been like a brother to her at a party. They had not seen each other in a long time, but the encounter tied them together once more.
Zhuang Xueyan remained distant.
Song Peiqing, however, pressed her at every turn, trying to make her face their feelings.
“Didn't you used to be so crazy about me? Why are you pretending not to know me now?”
