Later, the Spring Breeze Never Reached Me

At eighteen, Zhou Jiming swore he would love Shen Zhiyi for the rest of his life.

At twenty-eight, Zhou Jiming fell in love with someone else.

The night they broke up, Shen Zhiyi burned all their memories. But when the music box from their eighteenth year was thrown into the flames, a young man suddenly fell out of the blazing light.

He wore an old school uniform, had Zhou Jiming’s youthful face, and looked at her with undisguised love.

“You’re Shen Zhiyi at twenty-eight?”

“Why are you even more beautiful than I imagined?”

“Have we already gotten married in the future?”

Shen Zhiyi looked at him, and tears suddenly fell.

The person in front of her loved her so much.

But ten years later, this same face would grow tired of her tears, hang up on her, and give another woman the tenderness that had once been hers alone.

She told the boy:

“We’re not married.”

“Your future self betrayed me.”

The boy didn’t believe her.

Until he saw with his own eyes his future self holding an umbrella over another woman, while leaving Shen Zhiyi to wait alone in a hospital all night.

At last, he broke down.

To change everything, he returned to the age of eighteen and decided to avoid Shen Zhiyi from the very beginning.

If he didn’t love her, he couldn’t hurt her.

But when they met again, he saw the twenty-eight-year-old Shen Zhiyi in the girl’s calm gaze.

It turned out that she, too, had returned after dying in a car accident.

This time, they both decided not to fall in love again.

But Zhou Jiming only later realized that the true punishment wasn’t losing her.

It was becoming someone who would never betray her, only to lose the right to stand by her side.
