The boy she met in her youth was all the light in Shen Zhiwei's life. She ran toward Jiang Yan without hesitation, giving him all the warmth in her heart, believing that together they could withstand every storm in the world. Back then, Jiang Yan's eyes held only indifference. Used to her initiative and patience, he took her devotion for granted, repeatedly overlooking her hurt and letting misunderstandings divide them.
Arguments, cold treatment, and hopes left unfulfilled gradually wore away all of Shen Zhiwei's love. After one devastating disappointment, she stopped holding on. She quietly packed everything and walked out of Jiang Yan's world for good. In the years that followed, she slowly healed her wounds and learned to live for herself, shedding her former meekness and timidity to become poised and independent.
When they meet again years later, Jiang Yan has long outgrown his youthful arrogance. Only after losing her does he finally understand that the girl whose whole heart and gaze once belonged to him will never wait in the same place again. Overwhelmed by remorse, he awkwardly tries to draw close and make amends, doing everything he can to win her back. But a broken heart cannot be mended with an apology.
"You were the one who didn't want me back then." Shen Zhiwei looks at him calmly, her voice utterly devoid of emotion.
She was the one who first loved; he was the one who caused the hurt. Because I loved you, and because you let me slip away. Old feelings pull them back together, love and resentment intertwine. Jiang Yan is trapped in endless regret, fighting with all his might for a chance to start over. But will Shen Zhiwei risk her heart again?
