In his previous life, Chu Zhouxing bent down, held Ji Minjia's face, and kissed and bit his lips fiercely, one last time. As Ji Minjia lost himself in the heat of his breath, Chu Zhouxing said, "We're breaking up." He abandoned Ji Minjia, leaving him behind in the shabby rental along with their memories of poverty. They never saw each other again. Later, Ji Minjia died, loving Chu Zhouxing until the very end. . In this life, faced with the same choice, Chu Zhouxing stroked Ji Minjia's delicate cheek. His lover, who had been destitute, afflicted with a fatal illness, and died in his previous life, was only nineteen now, young and healthy. Chu Zhouxing looked through his eyes at the gloomy sky outside the window. "What is it you really want?" In his previous life, the meager inheritance Ji Minjia left behind couldn't answer Chu Zhouxing. In this life, Ji Minjia's eyes filled with tears. Trembling with nerves, he shook his head desperately and said over and over, "Brother Chu... don't go." Don't leave me behind. "All right. I won't go." Making money is so easy. He already knows exactly how this world works. This time, he'll try living a different way.
