A wealthy Shanghai heiress from a family enriched by demolition compensation & a poor young man from the Northwest whose fate has been full of hardship
Sunny documentary director & brooding, gloomy teacher who returns to his hometown
[Rekindled Romance | A Bittersweet Love | Mutual Redemption | Angsty HE]
Three years of sweet college romance ended in a hasty breakup born of love and resentment.
Lu Yaoyao doesn't hate Song Qinghe. She just wants to know why he dumped her.
The moment she saw his name, she volunteered to go to Gansu.
Everyone thought she was crazy.
Why would a filthy-rich heiress willingly put herself through hardship?
The moment they met, he pulled her into his arms.
In his embrace, she threw up all over him.

Song Qinghe loved Lu Yaoyao, loved her like a madman.
He wanted to carve every smile and frown of hers into his very bones.
When they met again, she had shed her childishness and become steady and mature.
He, meanwhile, was still trapped in the mountains.
Even loving himself was a luxury.
He was amazed that he could meet her again in this lifetime.
His body instinctively held her when she felt unwell.
That night, she kissed him while drunk, and he couldn't stop himself from kissing her back.
When she woke up, she remembered nothing.
It became a secret he treasured all alone.
*
Song Qinghe told Lu Yaoyao to go back to Shanghai.
But at the last moment, he regretted it.
His eyes red, he said, "I can make it up to you."
Lu Yaoyao knew he still loved her,
but she hated how he never spoke honestly.
"What can you offer me?"
"You can sleep with me."
"Plenty of people are lining up to let me sleep with them," Lu Yaoyao replied.
Then...
"But I'm different." Song Qinghe pinned her hands down
and covered her with a slow, lingering kiss.
