⚠️ Warning: This is not a sweet romance! A realistic coming-of-age story of youthful heartbreak, love slowly fading away, and a man desperately trying to win back his wife.
Also known as: A Youth Lost to Reality / A Man's Desperate Quest to Win Back His Wife.
The day they first met, Xu Ran fell in love with Lu Yu at first sight. Even after so much time had passed, so many years later, the bright sunshine of that day and the white T-shirt the boy wore were still vividly etched in her memory.
A long-awaited trip was suddenly cut short. When she went to visit him, she was met with his family's opposition and harsh words. Then an unexpected phone call told her he had been tricked into going home for a blind date.
Three disappointments, each compounding the last, drained the ardent love of her youth.
She didn't cry or make a scene. She quietly walked away.
Only after Lu Yu had searched through crowds of people did he belatedly realize that he had lost the girl whose heart and eyes had belonged entirely to him.
Later, a friend asked Xu Ran, "If you could choose, would you want to meet Lu Yu again in your next life?"
Xu Ran smiled. "If there really is a next life, let him make that choice himself."
(This passage comes from a real-life story of youthful heartbreak. No one is perfect, and love and hate are both ordinary parts of life.)
