That morning, Xiao Jue asked her: "Are you willing to hand over control to me?"
Lin Ruier looked into those eyes that were so calm and almost cruel, and said the word that changed everything - "yes". Xiao Jue took out a small dark blue velvet box and opened it. Inside was a slender silver necklace, and the pendant was a simple plain ring. Xiao Jue put it on Lin Ruier himself.
"This is not a lock, this is not a collar, this is a reminder."
From then on, her life had rules, boundaries, rewards and punishments. She thought this was redemption, that someone was willing to take responsibility for her to the end. But she didn't know that the person who seemed to be in control of everything also had drawers that she didn't dare to open.
There is a stack of sketches in the drawer that have been drawn for five years, and each one is of her.
There is also a letter in the drawer that has never been sent. There is only one line written on the letter: "Rui'er, I——"
What's behind? Xiao Jue never finished speaking.
Until that rainy night, Lin Ruier stood alone at the door of the bar, trembling all over, watching the black car break through the rain and stop in front of her. Xiao Jue walked down and glanced at her empty neck. His voice was as cold as ice: "Where is the necklace?"
At that moment, Lin Ruier knew that some rules were for protection. Some punishments are love.
And she never knew how many gray things that person who was always calm had done for her.
This is a story about secrets.
She has her own secrets - those twenty years that her parents treated her as a "burden".
"You will never be a burden to anyone, because you are my only love."
Xiao Jue also has her own secrets - those nights when she never showed weakness, those sketches that took five years, and those favors that touched the gray area for her.
When the two secrets are finally revealed under the moonlight, will they go towards each other or towards the abyss?
Forget-me-not.
When she said this word, she didn't know yet——
Some promises take a lifetime to keep.
Intention: We will always be each other's lovers
