When he was eighteen, Jiang Yi did the most embarrassing thing of his life:
He pursued a captain seven years his senior for two years and got rejected fourteen times.
The whole city laughed at him as “the captain’s personal simp.” He couldn’t care less. “I’m happy to do it.”
Then she left. For seven whole years, without a trace.
When they met again, he was a rising tech star, and she was a flight instructor.
He pretended their meeting was accidental, pretended they were strangers, pretended he’d long since forgotten her.
She retreated again and again, while he advanced step by step.
Everyone said Jiang Yi had stopped loving her long ago.
Until one late night, he trapped her between the railing of a cruise ship and his chest.
Seven years had passed, but his eyes were still red, and he still looked like the boy he’d been:
“Su Youyan, just turn around and look at me once, ”
“I’m still right behind you, damn it.”
At last, she turned around.
Behind her lay 2,556 days and nights.
Behind her stood him.
