SC | Reconciliation After a Breakup | He Pursues Her, but There's No Wife-Chasing Hell

Everyone said You Fu should be grateful to Shen Juezhi.

If he hadn't been so frail and sickly, she would never have been chosen from among all the children.

She would never have gotten the chance to completely change her fate.

But only You Fu knew the Shen family had raised her by his side because they wanted the two of them to share a lifespan.

Only after Shen Juezhi passed the hurdle of turning eighteen would she truly be free.

Shen Juezhi loved You Fu because he felt comfortable and safe with her.

He had never imagined she would leave, until she turned away without hesitation.

The year she left the Shen family, eighteen-year-old You Fu wanted to go south.

The north was too cold, too dry, and night fell too early.

But when she finally got to the south, she discovered that summer there seemed impossible to bear without air conditioning.

Outside the air-conditioned rooms, the damp heat was stifling, leaving her drowsy all the time.

It was just like the red rashes that would appear on the backs of her hands every so often. They weren't on her face, and they didn't hurt.

But they always itched at the most unexpected moments. You Fu could scratch them or apply ointment, but nothing helped. The only cure was to wait for the season to pass.

Watching Shen Juezhi suffer an attack, Ying Rong was nearly driven mad. Whether his illness was real or fake, she didn't care anymore.

All she wanted now was to tie You Fu up and bring her back. Maybe everything would resolve itself just like it had back then.

But at that moment, her son was tugging at her clothes, almost collapsing to his knees as he begged her.

"Please stop bothering her. I'll get better. She's free."

Ever since You Fu left, Shen Juezhi had felt that he was no longer himself.

He had loved, hated, and resented her.

But he had forgotten that from the very beginning, all You Fu had wanted was freedom.

"I'll get better."

No one knew that in countless moments when he teetered between life and death,

he had finally managed to survive by holding on to his love for You Fu.

From then on, the only thing he prayed to Heaven for was that You Fu would love him.

Content warning:

Do not apply this to real life.

The male lead really is ill. He recovers later so he can pursue the female lead.

The female lead loves the male lead, but she also loves freedom. The characters are not perfect.
