Lin Yue once staked all her tenderness and hopes on Gu Heng.
Gu Heng was a born star, aloof and reserved, with all his attention devoted to his career. Lin Yue loved him cautiously, making allowances for his busy schedule and sympathizing with his inability to express himself. Whenever hurt welled up inside her, she consoled herself: perhaps tomorrow he would notice what she had done for him; perhaps tomorrow he would show her a little more favor.
Countless dusks spent waiting, countless hopes left unfulfilled. Gu Heng grew used to Lin Yue's accommodating ways and constant companionship, taking her sincere love for granted. He saw the success and failure of projects, the wins and losses of worldly life, but overlooked the light slowly fading from the eyes of the girl beside him. Disappointment accumulated day by day, and her passionate love slowly cooled over the long years of neglect.
When her last remaining hope was crushed, Lin Yue stopped waiting for that elusive tomorrow. She decisively walked away, severing the feelings that had entangled them for years. Free of the relationship, she settled down to build her own life. She shed the submissiveness she'd shown in love and lived with clarity and self-respect, no longer entrusting her life to someone else's generosity.
Only when Lin Yue disappeared from his life completely did Gu Heng become trapped in overwhelming regret. At last, he understood how much endurance and heartache had been hidden in Lin Yue's words: "Perhaps tomorrow."
Fate brought them together again. Gu Heng set aside his pride and aloofness and awkwardly, stubbornly pursued her, doing everything he could to make up for the wrongs of the past. But the old wounds ran deep, and the pain she'd suffered was real. Lin Yue no longer dared to pin her hopes on "tomorrow."
Misunderstandings, rumors, and the barriers of the past stood between them. Would they part for good and each move on, or take one more chance, hoping that perhaps tomorrow they could find the happiness that had come too late?
Lin Yue was always waiting, hoping that perhaps tomorrow Gu Heng would understand how deeply she loved him. After one disappointment too many, she turned away resolutely. Only after losing her did Gu Heng come to his senses, setting aside his pride and fighting to win her back. With old wounds still unhealed and the road ahead uncertain, would they really find a tomorrow meant for them both?
She kept hoping for a maybe tomorrow. Only when her love had burned away did she suddenly realize she'd let the most precious person slip away.
