A reunion that begins with revenge, and an ultimate reversal about substitutes, misunderstandings and love as deep as the sea. When ten years of hatred collided with ten years of silent guardianship, when the hunter thought he was in control of the situation, little did he know that he had stepped step by step into the deep sea that seemed calm but could swallow up everything in the past.

A restrained and melancholy undertone runs through the entire text, relying on the shackles of class and personality to create a depressing atmosphere. The silent regret of secret love is far more depressing and heart-wrenching than deliberate sadomasochism.

The third kind of love. Sober sinking. It looks good above. The heroine is a doctor of medicine and a field doctor in the Middle East. Once in a dream, she reunites with the motherland's border guard soldier who has her first love and a noble and wild spirit. She didn't know that he was dying, and he didn't know that she was involved in the situation. No misunderstanding, reconciliation in seconds. Redemption by two strong men, hating the sea and loving the sky, there is blood and tears. Cry and laugh. It's not a bad idea to read a book.
