[Already drafting. I'll build up a bigger stockpile before starting QAQ]
Her mentor dies, leaving behind a mountain of problems and his younger son, Zhou Yi, who has a physical disability and refuses to talk to people.
Song Yin hurries over and finds Zhou Yi sitting pale-faced and frail in his wheelchair, silent, while his bizarre relatives carve up his inheritance.
The young master who once had dimples and would rise on tiptoe to act coquettishly with him has been thoroughly crushed by one disaster after another, reduced to a lifeless husk.
Song Yin takes over all of the Zhou family's businesses and debts, devoting himself to paving the way for Zhou Yi. He works himself to the bone managing connections, but in the end Zhou Yi looks at him with suspicion in his eyes and thorns all over his body.
Song Yin puts up with his irritability and suspicion, even treating him like the most precious thing in the world. Still, Zhou Yi won't let him leave his sight. The Zhou household grows more and more like a prison.
Song Yin knows Zhou Yi is simply sensitive and anxious, unable to accept separation.
But he longs to be free.
One day, Song Yin gives up so much and leaves with his luggage, disappearing from Zhou Yi's world for good. He knows his young master is desperately looking for him, nearly driven mad, but he refuses to show himself.
Song Yin has never been one to turn back.

Years later, Song Yin loses all his memories in a car accident and blithely walks back into Zhou Yi's life.
After Zhou Yi ties him up and takes him home, Song Yin just grins.
Take me in. You're actually a pretty nice guy. O.O

One-on-one romance, happy ending. The main characters aren't perfect, especially the one in the receiving role. He's genuinely a yandere (emphasis added).
