Give Me the Courage to Love Again

After graduation, she reunites with Mai Xiaofeng, her boyfriend of five years, and they plan to look for jobs together. But a cruel car accident takes his young life, and with it the only ray of sunshine in hers. Just when she is at her most desperate, Su Qingxuan appears, so breathtakingly handsome he seems almost inhuman. In Mai Xiaofeng's diary, he is called "the most outstanding man in the world," yet their friends and family all agree that he is a "bewitching beauty." Is he a good man or a demon?

Mai Xiaofeng describes Gu Xiaoyu: She looked up at me and gave me a faint smile. I was right: she really was beautiful when she smiled, like an angel.

Mai Xiaofeng describes Su Qingxuan: He is like a gorgeous poppy, with a beautiful appearance that makes people unable to resist drawing near. But the more beautiful something is, the more dangerous it is. By the time I realized I was poisoned by him, the poison had already seeped into my bones.

Su Qingxuan: "I, Su Qingxuan, truly want to spend my whole life with Gu Xiaoyu. Maybe we'll argue and have disagreements, but I'll do my best to fill our lives with more sweetness and warmth. Believe me, Gu Xiaoyu, I really do like you. I'll only say something this mushy once in my life. After this, even if you want to hear it, you won't. I'll show you how I feel through my actions. You don't have to give me an answer right away. We've got a whole lifetime to take our time."

Gu Xiaoyu: I like him, and I can't stop just because he's poison. Feelings are something reason cannot control.
