Firethorn Fruit

Blurb 1: Tao Ju's life was always bleak. "I really wish I could be lucky for once, without being loved. At least don't let me be hated."

Then she met Lin Han. For the first time, she wanted to string a necklace of firethorn berries for a boy.

Blurb 2: "You said yourself that your first half of life was so hard. I want the days ahead to be a little sweeter for you." Xie Yi met a girl he wanted to protect for the rest of his life.

Her name was Tao Ju. But fate played a cruel joke on them, and he died without ever getting his wish.

Later, Lin Han thought that if he could look back at his younger self from where he stood now, he would fearlessly tell Tao Ju: "When winter comes, go with me to see the hills covered in firethorn trees! I don't need a future. I just need you to come."

This line is adapted from the folk song "Come with Me to See the Sea at Hoh Xil."

Original line: "Come with me to Hoh Xil to see the sea. I don't need a future. I just need you to come."

A spoiled rich boy for a male lead, and a world-weary female lead?

Theme: Healing each other, learning to let go, and moving toward the future
