Tough-guy pilot x Chinese student studying in the US
During a civil war in a foreign country, Chen Shu, who was interning at a multinational company, was forced to get caught up in the chaos.
The streets were littered with corpses and filled with smoke. Huddled with a little girl in her arms in the corner of an abandoned factory, Chen Shu's hand gripping a dagger was covered in blood.
As danger drew closer, Chen Shu trembled all over with fear. At the last possible moment, a man suddenly came up behind her, clamped a hand over her mouth, and warned her in a low voice, "Don't make a sound."
Chen Shu was so frightened that her face turned pale. Before she could recover, he added: "Don't be afraid. I'm a soldier from Country Z. I've come to take you home."
Two years later, in Beicheng, Chen Shu ran into him again at a bar.
With a buzz cut and a cold expression, the man sat properly tucked into the corner of a sofa, messaging someone.
Overcome with excitement at seeing him, Chen Shu was too stunned to speak. After a long moment, she ran up to him and greeted him with a trembling hand. "Long time no see. I'm still alive, and you..."
The man's fingers paused over his phone. He looked up slowly at Chen Shu and replied with something completely unrelated: "Liang Yuan. My name is Liang Yuan."
