The first day Wen Shuyu moved into the Lu family home.
On the eve of the Little New Year, while the whole family gathered to celebrate, she sat alone, curled up with her knees hugged to her chest in an unfamiliar little room.
Outside the window, magnificent fireworks bloomed across the gray-blue night sky.
Chasing after them, she suddenly bumped into someone's chest.
In the dim garden,
she hurriedly looked up.
The Lu family's most pampered young master stood before her.
His face was as cold as his words.
"This isn't a place you should be."

She returned to that home years later to attend Lu Wang's engagement party.
The banquet hall blazed with lights, filled with clinking glasses and lively chatter.
Wen Shuyu spotted Lu Wang.
With one arm around his lovely fiancée, he was laughing and chatting with the guests.
Years had passed, but Lu Wang was still the same lofty, gifted young man, radiant with confidence and utterly untouchable.
Wen Shuyu joined the others in offering her congratulations. Amid the good-natured teasing, she was urged to raise a glass to the happy couple.
She looked up.
At the center of the crowd, the man gazed at her, cool amusement glinting in his eyes.
Wen Shuyu smiled brightly, lifted her glass, and drained it in one go.
"May you and Sister-in-law grow old together."
The smile on her lips was sweet and obedient.
The engagement party ended with an extravagant fireworks display that had cost a fortune.
That night, Wen Shuyu stood among the crowd, gazing up at the sky.
Brilliant blue fireworks lit up half the heavens.
Suddenly, she remembered that night many years ago.
At the high school graduation dance,
the young man had wrapped his arms tightly around her waist, his voice trembling slightly.
"Don't go."
Behind them, fireworks soared into the sky,
then soon sank into the deep-sea darkness of the night.
After that, she never saw fireworks as beautiful as those again.

When she was sixteen,
Wen Shuyu secretly wrote a few girlish thoughts in her diary:
"Once, I saw cold fireworks.
Though cold, they still made me want to draw near."
1. They are not blood-related, and they are not registered in the same household.
2. The heroine has previous experience, while the hero does not. One-on-one romance, happy ending.
3. School life and city life.
