When Song Chuli married Jiang Xun, she knew he had a white moonlight he'd been pining for without success for years.
Someone once heard Jiang Xun say with their own ears in a bar booth, "If I can't get the one I want most, I'll find the prettiest, most obedient substitute."
After two years as his substitute, Song Chuli had suffered enough cold looks and mockery. At last, she asked for a divorce.
After their divorce, the two ran into each other again at a drinking party.
Watching his ex-wife get plied with drinks and harassed, Jiang Xun did nothing. He only spoke up when a greasy man was about to touch her.
"Dr. Song," he called. If she asked him for help, he would help her.
But from beginning to end, she never once looked at him.
Everyone exchanged glances, and Jiang Xun's voice turned cold.
"Why are you looking at me? Look at them!" The man leaned back slightly with a cold expression, as if he were watching a show. He forced out just one sentence through his back teeth.
"Song Chuli, you absolutely must not ruin my fun."

Later.
For some reason, Jiang Xun got a full physical examination.
His assistant looked at the results. "Mr. Jiang, the doctor says you're in great shape. You're healthier than 99 percent of the country."
Jiang Xun frowned. "Then test me again, until you find something wrong."
On a rainy night, Jiang Xun took the report diagnosing him with 25-degree nearsightedness in his left eye and waited at the hospital for days. All he saw was Song Chuli leaving the operating room, chatting and laughing with a man.
Jiang Xun trembled all over, his knuckles turning white as he clenched his fists. At last, he couldn't hold back any longer and fell to his knees in front of Song Chuli.
"A-Li, don't look at anyone else. Look at me!"

Have you ever seen a pear blossom in August? Pear blossoms that bloom at summer's end won't bear fruit once they wither.
"Plants grow and reproduce by sensing temperature. Abnormal temperatures can make them think it's spring, so they bloom in the wrong season."
"It's not that I mistook the season, and it's not the wrong time."
"It's because you are my spring."
