Shen Zhiwei has a sweet, harmless face, but inside she is already shattered.
*
After her father cheated and decided to marry his mistress, he left with nothing.
Her mother changed Shen Zhiwei’s surname, and the two of them lived separate lives from her father.
When the person she had loved since she was young first brought her home, she discovered he was the son of her father’s mistress.
She dated him in secret for a while, but they were eventually forced apart.
After the trust between her and her mother was broken, she never again escaped her mother’s control and suspicion.

Shen Zhiwei catches her breath through casual sex.
No feelings, no involvement in each other’s lives, just a meeting every Friday.
Jiang Yanli followed the rules for two years. When he fell for her and asked whether she would consider making their relationship official, she vanished without a trace.
Four years later, he was suddenly appointed as her boss.
Learning that she still followed the same rules, he asked her, “Everyone else is allowed. Why not me?”

Tao Song was the blind date her mother introduced her to.
They dated for two years, and their breakup was ugly.
Later, she went to the hospital for an appointment while he brought in a suspect for an examination.
The suspect suddenly went berserk and took her hostage. Tao Song’s voice trembled with fear.
After she was rescued, he pulled her against his chest. “If you’re going to die, can’t you do it somewhere far away?”
