Lu Zeyan and Su Yan knew each other. When they were young, they traveled together in the same courtyard under the shade of a parasol tree.
The Lu family was so powerful that the young man had long considered the simple and quiet Su Yanzhi as his property. He didn't know how to be gentle, he only knew how to keep her by controlling, covering up, and cutting off her retreat. He thought he was fully protecting her, but in fact he was crushing her entire family with one hand.
Due to an accident at the age of eighteen, Su Yanzhi left his broken family overseas and lost contact with her for seven years without any news.
After returning home, we met again at the bidding wine bureau. He was already a powerful person who held real power and overturned the political circles in the business district. She was an architect and designer who had returned from overseas.
Everyone in the circle said that Lu Zeyan hated Su Yan to the core, making things difficult and suppressing him at every turn, and it was difficult to eliminate old grudges.
Only Lu Zeyan floated alone in the narrow sea between the two, and no one knew that his surging anger was never hatred.
He hated that she had not heard from her for seven years, hated that she treated him with only politeness and alienation, hated that she had gentle and considerate suitors around her, hated that the coldness in her eyes never faded when she mentioned the past, hated that he had thousands of chips in his hand, but could not exchange for any sincerity from her.
He used power to trap her, stabbed her with cold words, and tore apart each other's dignity time and time again. The confrontation was full of gloom. But all the sharpness faded away, leaving only desolation in his heart - he had never hated Su Yanzhi.
He only hated that she never loved him.
The old scars are torn apart layer by layer, love and hate are repeatedly entangled, and the two people slowly get closer across the sea of scars.
There is no enlightenment of life, no grand redemption that uplifts humanity, just two people full of cracks who are finally willing to cross the narrow sea and live peacefully with each other's incomplete love.
Intention: Power cannot replace sincerity, and all hatred comes from deep love.
