In the troubled times of the Republic of China, human life was as light as dust.
Fourteen-year-old Zhang Jiuhuan rescued thirteen-year-old Chen Yining who was wandering outside the ruined temple in the wind and snow. This helping hand gave Chen Yining a chance to survive, and also laid the foundation for the two people's lifelong entanglement.
The Zhang family was in turmoil, and Zhang Jiuhuan was alone between the military, government and the government. He acted ruthlessly and took care of everything on his own. Outsiders thought she was cold-blooded, but she was the only one who understood that all her alienation and harshness were just to protect Chen Yining. In order to prevent her from getting involved in her own quagmire, she could only be deliberately indifferent and even push away deliberately. She would rather be misunderstood and resented by her than let her follow her into danger.
Chen Yining was fished out of the mire by her, and followed her through troubled times. He was involuntarily involved in disputes, and his hands were stained with blood. She understood Zhang Jiuhuan's difficulties, and she also knew that the road ahead for the two of them was different, but she couldn't let go of the love in her heart, so she insisted on staying by her side and accompanying her through one ups and downs after another.
In troubled times, they are each other's only support, but they are repeatedly separated by the current situation and fate. Dividing and reuniting, misunderstandings continue, loving each other is difficult to stay together, and getting close will inevitably hurt each other.
Wait until the war subsides and everything settles down. Zhang Jiuhuan put aside all his power and grudges and stood alone at the ferry. The silver ring that she couldn't give away was held in her hand. In the long years to come, only the cold wind from the ferry blew every year, and the person she was waiting for never came back.
It originated from a ruined temple, which is different from the ferry.
We meet each other in troubled times, fall in love and owe each other, but there is no return date after all.
