The first time I saw her, I didn't think of how she was about to become my cousin. I thought that one day, I would make her my wife.

We were only fifteen then. We met briefly at the airport, and she called me "Older Cousin" and said I was family.

"Family" was a word that had always felt far beyond my reach.

I am Chao Wang. My parents died when I was young, and I was adopted by Weng Duo, Single Yu's uncle.

I lived under someone else's roof. Weng Duo gave me suffocating fatherly affection and expectations I could never hope to meet.

It wasn't until I was eighteen that I heard Single Yu's name again.

Weng Duo said she had made some unsavory friends in England, and that he had to pull her back from the brink before she went astray.

I volunteered to go to England for one reason: to bring her home.

She really was a little liar. The brazen wickedness in her seemed unbearably adorable to me.

But I knew she was better than anyone.

So wonderful that I couldn't tell what my closeness meant to her.

I kept trying to find a good reason to be by her side, a reason for my very existence in her life.

Whenever I was with her, I always felt I didn't deserve her.

Later, I grew greedy, but I was still afraid. I feared that if I took one step closer, she would run, but if I stepped back, everything I had worked for would be for nothing.

The film Wind's Mockery was one step in her fate, and it also drew me into her destiny.

On the rainy night we fell in love, passion roared past us, and even the wind seemed to laugh at us.

I love her. At last, I said those three words to her.

From now on, for the rest of my life, I will always love her. I will only ever love her.
