The Drizzle Hasn't Turned Cold

Reserved, resilient small-town girl x arrogant, laid-back Beijing elite

Rekindled romance | Powerful man brought to his knees by love, then fights to win her back

-

Jing Wen was with Lin Shaozhen for four years.

On the day she graduated from university, she accepted the flowers he gave her, wrapped her arms around his neck, and smiled brightly.

She was about to kiss the corner of his mouth as she always did, but he gently pushed her away and said, "You've gotten too caught up in this. It's time to end it."

Jing Wen suddenly understood what she had been to him all along.

She looked at the handsome, cold man standing before her, unable even to hide her smile in time.

It was simply her nature to let go quietly.

She lowered her eyes and nodded. "...All right."

At a teahouse in Zhouzhuang, cold rain fell without end.

A friend asked casually, "Who was the man who hurt you most, and who was the best to you?"

Jing Wen gave a name.

Her friend pressed her. "And the other one?"

Jing Wen gazed at the autumn rain falling outside and said calmly, "They're both him."

-

Lin Shaozhen thought he didn't like Jing Wen all that much.

She was just a small-town girl, from a world so different from his. What was there to miss?

But when he saw her dating another man, he finally realized:

He had always been the one who got too caught up in it.

Jing Wen could move on and love someone else.

He couldn't.

[You treated me well, but you also hurt me the most. I tried hard to live well without you.]

[But without you, I can never be happy again.]
