Synopsis

Their youthful, passionate gazes met, and they shared a secret crush through one entire summer.

Lu Yan was proud and possessive, loving clumsily and intensely. He thought pushing Shen Juan away was a way to let him go, a way to protect him.

Shen Juan was warm and sincere, giving his whole heart and chasing after Lu Yan, only to receive a cold breakup in return.

Then, in a blink, five years stretched between them like mountains and seas. Reunited after all this time, amid the flickering lights of a banquet, the lover who had once been closest to him now offered only a distant, polite “Mr. Lu.” He had shed his youthful awkwardness, becoming gentle yet aloof, shutting Lu Yan out of the rest of his life. Lu Yan, guarded and burdened by bone-deep regret, stubbornly pursued his old love, hoping he would turn back.

Everyone says Mr. Lu is aloof, cold, and heartless. Only he knows that the emptiness of the past five years, his late-night longing, and his humble pursuit have all been for Shen Juan alone.

A shattered mirror still bears its cracks, but love remains undiminished.

Back then, too young to understand love, he lost the one he cherished with his own hands. For the rest of their lives, he will make amends at every turn, giving Shen Juan all the tenderness and devotion he deserves.

Reunion + Heartache + Getting Back Together

I really love that kind of story: they gradually get together and have a wonderfully sweet time, but split up for various reasons, then meet again years later 😭😭😭 Does anyone have any good recommendations with this kind of premise? 😭
