Shen Shisong lost his memory. He woke up aboard an old cruise ship and was immediately swept into a bizarre game.
Even stranger, he fished a tall man out of the sea.
Pale skin, inorganic eyes. He didn't look alive, but the first thing he said was that he was Shen Shisong's ex-husband.
Shen Shisong calmly raised his leg to kick him back into the sea.
But his ex-husband's icy fingertips touched his thigh. "There's a mole here."
Shen Shisong froze. The icy beauty pulled back from the urge to use violence and let cold droplets seep into his clothes.
His ex-husband gave a nervous little laugh. "I've bitten this mole so many times."
Well, it seemed they'd definitely slept together, at least.
Shen Shisong managed to survive despite losing his memory, relying on instinct. But he kept spotting his ex-husband at crucial scenes, always arriving before him.
Song Yuan sat at ease, with the man who had threatened to kill Shen Shisong an hour earlier lying dead at his feet.
His ex-husband looked up at him with eyes as damp and cold as seawater, smiling as if expecting praise.
After they returned to land, Shen Shisong couldn't take any more of Song Yuan appearing out of nowhere in his home, never once using the front door.
Shen Shisong: "Didn't we get divorced?"
Song Yuan: "We didn't get divorced."
Shen Shisong was confused. Then what made him an ex-husband?
Song Yuan gently smoothed his furrowed brow. "You're a widower."
He understood, but also didn't. "You act the same whether you're dead or alive, don't you?"
When faced with a difficult question, Song Yuan fell silent again.
Shen Shisong: "What kind of inhuman creature are you? Show me your true form."
Song Yuan sighed fondly. His amnesiac wife needed a hundred times more patience and guidance, so he answered honestly:
"There's not enough room for me here."
