I once firmly believed that he and I were like the monsoon and migratory birds, destined to be separated.
He is my brother's best friend, the man who my brother repeatedly told me to keep my distance from—Song Zhexian.
A man whose name was once associated with "romance" and whose experiences were so complicated that he could write a novel. A former Marine Corps scout and now a criminal investigation policeman in the city bureau, danger is synonymous with him.
And I am just a little doctor who is content in a small town and works step by step.
I told myself that there were two impossible parallel lines between us. I have seen with my own eyes his past in the human world, and I have also heard my brother's serious warnings.
Therefore, I carefully guarded my heart, pretending to be calm about every "accidental encounter" he had, and erecting a silent line of defense for every time he came close.
Until that evening, his carefully planned "proposal note" slowly unfolded in the light and shadow.
I was shocked to realize that all the coincidences and solitude in my life had been silently and affectionately collected by him.
The man who was once the least likely to settle down used his scout method to lay out a gentle siege called "The Rest of My Life".
And I, willingly, surrendered.
