🖤 Cold and detached vs. dangerously unhinged 🖤
Down-and-out rich girl vs. poor boy
In the year 2000, on a rainy day, the lake turned the color of dye.
Rou Lan rescued a boy from the water by Misty Lake.
She didn't know whether the boy had tried to take his own life or had fallen in by accident. The two of them sat on the shore, drenched, and the boy didn't say thank you. He even gave her a smile.
Later, Rou Lan's family fell into ruin, her father was sent to prison, and she became a stray dog everyone cursed and despised.
She stood beside the lake as mist rose from the water, holding a piece of fabric. Then, without a second thought, she jumped in. The fabric soaked through, sank into the lake, and vanished from sight.
When she woke up, she was in a rented room by the lake. A young man sat beside the stove, warming himself. His eyes were the same as the boy she had rescued years ago.
"Rou Lan, do you want to die?"
Meng Yu kicked the charcoal brazier over to her bedside. "Then you'll have to wait until I'm dead first."

"There's an ocean in your eyes."
"You led me astray, and I still have to thank you for it."
