Eight years apart, there are different paths between light and dark.
Shen Jinci is the turbulent underground leader of Nancheng. He is full of violence and fire. The world fears him like Shura.
Wenruan is a scholarly girl who has grown up in the sun. She is clean and soft. She is the moonlight that he has hidden in the darkness and guarded silently for eight years.
When they met again in Shengxia Old Street, she softly called him Brother Shen, not afraid of the rumors, and insisted on going to his muddy world.
He restrained, pushed away, and guarded every step of the way, fearing that his body would be filled with sins and stain her pure whiteness;
But when crisis strikes, he is willing to shield her from all swords and blood, using power as a shield and flesh and blood as a screen.
"Ruanruan, I live in embers and shouldn't have touched the moonlight."
"But I am willing to walk into your darkness and be your only tenderness."
From the one-way protection of tolerance and restraint, to the two-way redemption of life and death.
He gave up half of his life's power, shed all his fighting spirit, and washed away the smoke of gunfire;
With her sincerity, she got through his desolation and loneliness, giving him stability year after year.
The embers of fire will eventually embrace the moonlight, and the darkness will also pass through the gentleness. There will be no smoke for the rest of my life, just day and night together.
