[Rebirth at different times|Heartbreak early on|Mutual healing|Raising a child, happy ending]
Su Wan used to squander Lu Shiyan's decade of devotion, acting spoiled and willful, repeatedly wounding the boy who loved her with all his heart.
Then Lu Shiyan was gravely injured saving her and lived out his life alone. Su Wan died after a long illness, consumed by regret, wishing only for another chance to love him properly.
Reborn in her final year of high school, Su Wan softened her sharp edges and reached out to him, only to be met with Lu Shiyan's cold avoidance.
She tried to be kind and offered sincere apologies, but he kept backing away. The whole school mocked her for imagining he could love her.
Su Wan couldn't understand why. It took her a long time to realize the cruel truth: Lu Shiyan had been reborn three years earlier. He had endured his pain alone and forced himself to let go of his love for her.
It wasn't that he didn't love her. He just didn't dare risk his life on loving her again.
One drunken night, Lu Shiyan let slip the secrets of his past life, and the truth about their separate rebirths finally came to light.
With red-rimmed eyes, he admitted that every time Su Wan came close, she tore open the wounds he'd buried.
Once she understood, Su Wan stopped chasing him and quietly stayed by his side, gentle and patient.
The defenses he'd built over so long came crashing down. Lu Shiyan finally broke, dropped all his guards, and reached for her himself, consumed by possessiveness and devotion.
They untangled the knots in their hearts from two lifetimes, went from school sweethearts to the altar, and welcomed an adorable child.
Su Wan healed the wounds he carried from his past life, while Lu Shiyan made up for the lifelong regrets she had carried. The sorrows spanning two lifetimes were finally resolved, and they chose each other without leaving anything owed.
