On the day Shen Qing resigned from marrying Gu Yanshen, there was half a piece of broken jade hidden under the red hijab.
That belongs to Lawrence Lu.
There was an avalanche three years ago, and his body was completely gone. Only this jade was left to accompany her through countless snowy nights.
But there was a scar on Gu Yanshen's left wrist, which looked very much like the mark left when Lu Chengyu blocked the stone for her;
When he was drunk, he would mutter "The red rope is broken", which was the peace knot she knitted with her own hands;
There is half a pair of hiking boots locked in his study. The shoe size and wear spots all match Lu Chengyu's.
She wanted to seek confirmation like crazy, but when he said "Yao Yao, wait for me" to her sister's photo, her heart grew colder.
It turns out that she is just a stand-in, and even the scars on her wrists and the old things hidden are just a show he performed for his sister.
Until that night, she saw him crying over the broken red rope, and there was a note in the iron box:
"Qing Ci, I will go find you after I settle the affairs of the Gu family."
The words are Lu Chengyu's handwriting.
It turned out that it was never him who died, but what she had thought about in the past three years, and what he said was "forever".
"Why did you lie to me?" She clutched the note and trembled.
He smiled with red eyes: "Otherwise? Watch you being silenced by the Gu family?"
The protection he thought was pushing her deeper into hell.
She had saved enough and was about to leave in despair. He chased her in the heavy rain with his remaining legs, and fell into the mud and screamed "I love you".
In the rearview mirror, his figure became smaller and smaller, resembling the silhouette that disappeared in the snow three years ago.
Later, someone said that Mr. Gu would go to the avalanche field every snowy day, carrying half a piece of broken jade in his arms;
Some people also say that the proprietress of Chengnan Bookstore always stares at the empty bookshelf, where a copy of "Snow Mountain Chronicles" was once placed.
The snow buried his body and her heart.
Some love is destined from the beginning to rot in the soil and never see the light of day.
