Don't Be Afraid

The first time Jiang Weiyi saw Shi Wen, he was leaning against a black supercar, a scarlet cigarette glowing between his fingers. He looked lazy and vaguely amused.

"What are you looking at? Never seen a handsome guy before?"

The second time she saw Shi Wen, he was wearing a police uniform, his lips pressed into a straight line. He stood on the tallest rooftop in Jiangbei City, with a sea of flames behind him and the wind ruffling his bangs.

He held her in his arms and jumped.

He said, "Don't be afraid."

No one knew what had gotten into the eldest daughter of the Jiang family.

After being kidnapped, she became hopelessly obsessed with a young police detective and wouldn't leave him alone.

Later, the Jiang family needed her to marry for an alliance, and Shi Wen was in a car accident during an operation, leaving him completely paralyzed from the waist down.

On a night of torrential rain, he smashed the watch she had given him on the ground and shouted, "Get out!"

Jiang Weiyi held him as her eyes reddened.

She said, "Don't be afraid."

Rekindled Romance / Bittersweet Love / Everyday Life / HE: In This World, I Only Want to See You

The day You Yan returned to the country, she ran into Jian Yuli at the airport.

He was strikingly handsome, refined, and aristocratic. When he glanced at her, there was no warmth in his eyes.

You Yan gripped her guitar case and walked past him.

Outside the airport, a sea of people had gathered, all there to welcome Jian Yuli.

-

Half a month later, an old friend invited You Yan to play accompaniment at a bar.

The lead singer was slender and stunning. Sitting beneath the stage lights, he lifted his captivating eyes and curled his thin lips in amusement. "You Yan?"

You Yan wanted to run. Jian Yuli walked over and held out a hand in greeting. "Shall we get acquainted?"

That night, she watched him stand before the microphone onstage, drawing wave after wave of screams from the crowd. The shell she had built around her heart cracked apart, bit by bit.

-

When she was young, You Yan loved kissing Jian Yuli's collarbone.

In his clean white No. 7 High School shirt, the boy sat on the edge of the rooftop, his slender fingers strumming the guitar as he sang softly with a faint smile.

His gentle eyes always seemed to be filled with glimmers of light.

Later, the two broke up. You Yan went to the United States for further studies, while Jian Yuli stayed in the country to pursue his career.

On the day she left, he gave her two tickets for flights departing at different times and let her choose.

She didn't choose him.

Jian Yuli said, "I will never see you again for the rest of my life."

But after the concert that night, You Yan hid in the bathroom to take painkillers and overheard Jian Yuli discussing with an old friend: "Invite her again tomorrow. I'll pay whatever it takes."

You Yan curled up in the farthest stall, clutching her head as she sobbed uncontrollably.

-There is no greater blessing than reaching the end of a dark cliff and seeing that glimmer of light from our youth again.
