Afterward, he's a clingy, green-tea puppy.] 1. Jiang Yuwei and Song Zhihe went from school uniforms to wedding dresses, but their marriage fell apart completely in its second year. When the other woman showed up at her door with a pregnancy test, Jiang Yuwei was in an art gallery, retouching an unfinished oil painting. It depicted Song Zhihe as a boy, but the final stroke of paint had abruptly blurred into a dark red. There was no such thing as "enduring humiliation" in the dictionary of the eldest daughter of the Jiang family. Jiang Yuwei chose to divorce him. 2. No one knew that Xu Yi, the youngest and most award-winning ceramic artist on the international scene, had been secretly in love with someone for years. He had loved Jiang Yuwei in secret for a full decade, ever since high school. A friend once teased him, "Do you really think you'll love her your whole life? I think you can't forget her because you can't have her. If you did, your moonlight-white ideal would turn into plain old rice." "Besides, can you really live like a monk forever?" Xu Yi only smiled faintly and said nothing. On the day he learned that Jiang Yuwei's marriage had fallen apart, Xu Yi was accepting an award and answering questions. In a white shirt and gold-rimmed glasses, he delivered his acceptance speech in a casual, languid manner. But when his assistant came over and quietly told him what had happened, Xu Yi, who had always been so composed, froze in front of the cameras for the first time. The next day. Xu Yi stepped through the door of Yuwei's flower shop for the first time. He knew Yuwei had been hurt. He knew that after what she'd been through with Song Zhihe, she no longer believed in love. She had politely thanked him and turned him down, and everyone who knew them urged him to give up, saying there was no point trying to warm a cup of tea that would never grow warm. He simply and tenderly caressed a cracked celadon cup. At the base of the cup, where no one could see, the glaze bore a tiny, faint rose. Xu Yi gazed at the crack and said something his friend couldn't understand: "Someone broke it. I'll warm every piece, then glue it back together." 3. Later on. Xu Yi's studio posted a photo of him at work. In the picture, Xu Yi stood before the kiln in plain linen clothes, sparks dancing behind him. He held a crackle-glazed sunflower-rimmed cup, both antique and lovely. At first, his fans were simply surprised that Teacher Xu, who rarely smiled, looked especially gentle that day. Then someone noticed that reflected in the cup was the silhouette of a beautiful woman in a qipao, curled up on a sofa. His fans asked about his love life, assuming that the iron tree that had stood for a thousand years had finally blossomed. Xu Yi simply posted one message on Weibo: [It's warm now.] Coming next: I Healed a Poor School Heartthrob "Radiant heiress x poor school heartthrob" Ming Zhen was once the brightest jewel in City A. Born with a silver spoon in her mouth, she excelled in both looks and academics. Everyone adored her, and she seemed to be a darling of heaven. Then her father died suddenly, and her second uncle's family bared their fangs. Together with her grandmother, they threw her out of the house. The once-heavenly darling fell from the clouds into the mud. Fortunately, Qi Yan came along and saved her. The person she had once hated most became the only one to reach out to her in the mud. She and Qi Yan went from strangers to lovers. His love helped her regain her confidence, until a car accident took his life, and she followed him in death. When she opened her eyes, she was back in her senior year of high school. Ming Zhen had just two goals: make her father see her second uncle's family for who they really were, and find Qi Yan so they could fall in love. But the rising star of City A from her previous life was now a pitiful nobody whom no one wanted. He didn't believe she loved him. * Qi Yan had neither a father nor a mother. He was a pitiful nobody whom no one wanted, living in the oldest, most run-down house. Even though he was handsome and excelled at school, plenty of people still laughed at him. Qi Yan never cared about other people's mockery. He just wanted to study hard and leave this place. But one day, a radiant girl pushed open the rusty iron gate and walked toward him with a bright smile. She said she had come to love him. At first, Qi Yan thought it was a cruel prank by some rich person. But later, he hoped the prank would last a little longer, and preferably that he would never find out the truth. Theme: Don't doubt yourself because of a failed relationship. Keep going and look ahead. The flowers up ahead are beautiful.
