Tough independent online writer × cool and gentle surgeon
Hoarding × Mysophobia | Reunion after a long absence | Two-way redemption
Mu Xianyan experienced the most miserable life when she was young.
On New Year's Eve, her father came home half-drunk and forced her to stand outside the house.
It was a snowy day in the north with ten degrees below zero, and the corridor was not warm, but the colorful fireworks outside the window made her yearn for it.
But luckily I have companions——
The boy next door named Xiaoyan was two years older than her. She and she had the same problem and always helped and comforted each other.
That night, they watched the fireworks side by side in the corridor, blue and purple lit up the sky, and the tips of their noses were red from the cold.
So he took her to his home and gathered around the little sun to keep warm.
At that time, she said: "I really hope that one day, we can also set off our own fireworks."
But later, Xiaoyan moved, and her family suffered drastic changes.

When she grew up, Mu Xianyan became an online writer.
The community she rents is located at No. 45 Xinxing Street. Recently, a new tenant came in. It is said that he has severe mysophobia. He disinfected the elevator and corridors as soon as he moved.
Mu Xianyan only found out about it a week later, because she hid at home all day long, and the only time she went out was to go downstairs to take out the trash in the early morning.
The night we first met, she was wearing a thin nightgown, her hair was disheveled, and she was so confused that she couldn't even open her eyes.
After taking out the garbage and going upstairs, he met Fu Hongyan standing at the door talking on the phone. When he saw her, his eyes were surprised: "So someone lives in this household?"
Mu Xianyan, who had not spoken to anyone for half a year, wanted to roll her eyes for some reason and replied coldly: "What else? Could it be that there is a female ghost living in her?"
"Sorry." The man smiled and extended his right hand to her gently, "Let me formally meet you. My name is Fu Hongyan. We will be neighbors from now on."
Mu Xianyan spent a long time mentally building up, but she couldn't hold his hand back. She stood a step away and just nodded to him: "Mu Xianyan."

One night ten years ago, there were four members of a family in a certain community, and only their daughter, Mu Xianyan, survived.
Mu Xianyan struggled for ten years, trying to live like a normal person, but she still had the same dream at night, as if she would be trapped in that night's fire for the rest of her life.
Later, when she met Fu Hongyan again, there were gentle words of comfort in her nightmare, and he kept stroking the scar on her back: "Ayan, you saved me once, can you save me again?"
"Don't leave me alone."
I have never forgotten our appointment to set off fireworks together, and you, you are brighter than the fireworks.
——Fu Hongyan
