Qi Hui is the daughter of a wealthy businessman in Beijing and was sent to a small town to study. Lu Shihao is a well-known young man in the town. He is smart, proud, and as clean as an unedged knife. They loved each other and held each other in high esteem.
But Qi Hui broke up with her overnight, said all kinds of mean things, threw the first plain silver ring given by Lu Shihao into the river, and turned around and disappeared.
Everyone in the town said that the river was shallow, but only Lu Shihao realized after jumping in that the water was so cold that it could swallow half of a person's life. He searched in the water all night, but couldn't find the ring, and he never found the girl again.
Many years later, Lu Hao Leiting, an upstart in the capital, rose up, personally destroyed the Qi family's business empire, and trapped Qi Hui by his side. He hated her so much that the old ring on his chest felt hot day and night; she also hated him so much that it trembled in his arms but could never take it off.
There was so much between them: a misunderstanding, a sinking, and an old love that no one could let go of in those years.
He once said: "I hate you, but I never stop loving you."
She said: "We don't love each other, we owe each other."
But when Qi Hui stood by the river again, Lu Hao followed her. It's not because of hatred, but because he is afraid that if she jumps again, it will hurt him again.
"Everyone says that river is shallow. Only those who jump in know that it is so deep that it can swallow up all a person's thoughts."
——And we have not been able to climb ashore so far.
Purpose: "It's better to love each other to the point of torture than to live an ignoble life separately."
