When popular movie star Qi Xiuzhu had a bout of camera phobia at an awards ceremony, he simply dyed his hair white and went on vacation in a small, obscure county town. He never expected to find his ex-boyfriend of five years waiting when he opened the door of a guesthouse. He Mian took off his black gloves and glanced up nonchalantly. "I thought it was just someone with the same name. But it really is you, the big movie star." The obedient top student he remembered now had a vivid red head of hair and looked cold and wild. Qi Xiuzhu couldn't help saying, "Such a poser." He Mian: ... "Ex-boy-friend. Takes one to know one." 2. A handsome white-haired guy had recently arrived in town. He was tall and long-legged, cool and distant, and not much of a talker. One of He Mian's underlings asked, "Don't you think that white-haired guy looks a lot like the celebrity you like?" He Mian gave a cold laugh. "No. He's nowhere near as good-looking." Later, Qi Xiuzhu twisted his ankle and held out his arms to He Mian in front of everyone. "Carry me." The underling was surprised. "You two know each other well?" He Mian subtly blocked everyone's view and scooped him up. "Me and him? Don't be ridiculous. We're not close." Qi Xiuzhu nestled in his arms, his expression darkening. "We're not close, and we never will be." 3. A month later, He Mian couldn't stop thinking that something was off about his ex-boyfriend. It was one thing for Qi Xiuzhu to follow him around all day like a little shadow. But the guy kept looking at him strangely. One night, with the mood just right, He Mian kissed the tip of Qi Xiuzhu's ear. "Honey, how about we get back together?" After a moment's silence, Qi Xiuzhu pressed a hand against his Adam's apple, rolled over, and pinned him beneath him. He looked down at the man on the bed and smiled. "Did you get the wrong idea? I didn't mean that." "Also, your whole under-bed space is full of my posters. Ex-boyfriend, care to explain?"

His parents had changed it when he was five, after an accident. After his parents died, he stayed in his hometown, working as an internet cafe attendant, carpenter, and cook. But business wasn't good in town, so he eventually found a job repairing cars at an auto shop. Life there was pretty peaceful. Lu Ting's only friend was a long, skinny mongrel. The dog had no name. It went out for a walk during the day and came home to beg for food at night. Later, he learned that the dog had five owners in town. He wasn't the only one. That winter was bitterly cold, and a heavy snowfall blanketed the town. Overnight, Lu Ting's world turned entirely white. It was very quiet. He didn't like it. Someone tapped his shoulder. Lu Ting turned around and met a pair of dark eyes. The young man behind him had delicate features, rosy lips and white teeth, and cheeks flushed red from the cold. Lu Ting instinctively looked out at the white snow, then turned back and saw the young man's lips moving as he said something to him. Lu Ting, usually so good at reading lips, couldn't make out a single thing. He typed on his phone and handed it over. "What are you saying? I can't hear you." The young man froze, took the phone, and typed back: "Hello, would you marry me?" Lu Ting frowned and checked the message several times before pointing to his ear. "It's okay," the young man replied. "I don't like talking anyway." Lu Ting and Bian Xue got married in the coldest part of winter. Life was much the same as before: feeding the dog, fixing cars... Except for the young man sitting outside the door, watching the snow. He was as beautiful as the snow outside, and just as quiet. Lu Ting had thought the marriage was a spur-of-the-moment decision, made on a whim and bound to end sooner or later. That was, until unfamiliar feelings began to spiral out of control. "Stop..." Bian Xue's eyes shimmered with tears. In a panic, he mouthed the words and gestured to Lu Ting in sign language. Lu Ting took his hand and covered his own eyes, speaking silently. "Baby, I can't hear you." He knew Bian Xue could understand. Theme: Face life bravely and live for yourself.
