1.
Her father fell on hard times, and her mother left home.
At fifteen, Su Shang had no choice but to ask her father’s friend, Wen Jingji, for help. She called him Uncle.
He gave her food, clothes, a comfortable life, encouragement, and care.
But that was as far as it could go.
Su Shang decided to hide him in her heart and bury him in the years gone by.
At the time, Wen Jingji was a rising star in tech. He always knew how to conduct himself, and everyone saw him as a perfect gentleman. He was adored by all.
When she was eighteen, Su Shang kissed him while drunk.
Then she ran away.

When they met again, Su Shang’s life seemed to take off. She won painting awards one after another.
At an award ceremony, the lights dimmed onstage. Her close friend, who had come to celebrate with her, suddenly stepped up with a bouquet and confessed his love to Nichang.
The person who shouldn’t have been there stood below the stage. His usually placid face cracked. It turned out the moon could grow dim, too.
Wen Jingji suddenly rose from his seat and hurried onto the stage amid the flashes of cameras.
He stretched out an arm to block the roses. “Sorry, she already has someone she loves.”
He asked Su Shang in a low voice, “Who said you could kiss me and then run away?”
A story about a gentle yet steadfast man and a girl who makes every year together more interesting.
