A lie told when they were young kept Lan Shu avoiding Jiang Yu for years. After a car accident, she finally dared to approach him, but he asked, “Do I know you?”
She alone remembered their shared past. After missing each other time and again, they finally reunited in an art studio and fell in love at university.
On a snowy night in Beijing, he tucked her cold hands against his chest and promised to be there for every winter to come.
After graduation, she moved to South Korea. A misunderstanding over a cake made her angrily break up with him.
She waited for him to ask her to stay, but his mother was seriously ill, and unwilling to burden her, he let her go with a broken heart.
Once his mother recovered, he set off for Seoul with her favorite cake, but died in a car accident before they could reunite.
As he lay dying, all his memories from their youth returned. He asked Su Wanning to leave her with one last lie: “Tell her I'm married.”
A youth in which they had both chased after each other ended in a regret that would last forever.
Later, she felt she shouldn't even miss him, and whenever she dreamed of him, she reminded herself: he already had a family.
She spent the rest of her life learning how to stop loving him, never knowing that until his very last breath, he was still on his way back to love her.
