In the eyes of everyone, Chen Jue is the "down-to-earth good man" who is about to get married. In Lu Zhaoye's memory, he looked completely different.
——The one who dragged her behind the holly bushes and kissed her with the cold night dew, the smell of smoke still lingering on his lips and tongue, his arms so tight that she could hardly breathe, gritted his teeth: "Aren't you afraid of being seen?"
——The one who pushed her roughly against the edge of the marble island in the open kitchen, her lower back was sore, his hot breath sprayed on her neck, his voice was hoarse and broken: "Lu Zhaoye... You won... Are you fucking satisfied?"
——The man in the entrance hall of her house, whose arms were shaking but made her ribs ache, buried his face in her shoulder, and let out an extremely suppressed whimper like a wounded beast.
This is the "truth" that she has hidden for more than ten years without daring to take a closer look.
All of his forbearance, restraint, silence and affection, every betrayal of turning his back on the world, every protection that he was willing to break into pieces, were all just to protect her. It wasn't until he sacrificed all his security at the engagement party that Lu Zhaoye, a man accustomed to being aloof and controlling everything with rules, finally saw the truth that he had deliberately avoided for many years -
This is not a simple rekindling of an old relationship, nor is it a cliche "who to choose".
These are two souls trapped in paranoia and lies. On top of the ruins, they complete two-way redemption and their own independent rebirth.
