The fragrance of vegetation quietly slipped into the reception room through the cracks in the window. It was the first encounter between Xue Zhou and Ding Zhou.
It was originally a guardian within the duty, but it quietly deteriorated through the intersection of chance and coincidence. It is unclear whether it was the sinking of long-term love or the pull of secret emotions. Xue Zhou's favoritism towards Ding Zhou gradually became an instinct that did not need to be thought about.
He would first block the difficult things in society for Ding Zhou; he would silently take care of the trivial worries in life; he could not help but protect Ding Zhou even when others made unintentional jokes. This preference does not matter the reason or the occasion, until at a certain moment Xue Zhou suddenly realizes that Ding Zhou has become his untouchable bottom line, a negative scale that cannot be touched or hurt by others.
But Ding Zhou has always been passive and restrained in this relationship. He never asked for anything more, but instead habitually placed himself extremely low, as low as the dust, as if he was extremely lucky to stay by Xue Zhou's side. When he learned that Tian Fei was Xue Zhou's ex-boyfriend, he didn't have any resentment or suspicion at all. He just smiled quietly, with an imperceptible softness in his eyes, and accepted the past calmly, as if it was the chapter that Xue Zhou should have in his life.
Intention: Don't be afraid, there is someone in this world who loves you.
