Snow Sends Its Message on a Bright Moonlit Night

The first time Lin Chaole met Zhou Yu was on a snowy night in the dead of winter. She was in a sorry state, her face streaked with tears.

He gave her his umbrella.

She heard he came from a prominent family and was their only son.

At the beginning of their story, she was the one who approached him. Later, she was also the one who disappeared without a backward glance.

The night they met again was also snowy. In Paris, with snow falling all around, she was robbed of everything and left penniless. With no one to turn to, she was about to end up on the streets.

And he, surrounded by a crowd, passed her in a fine suit, every inch the privileged gentleman.

Soaked through, she looked like a stray cat, even more wretched than when they first met.

For one second as they brushed past each other, she caught hold of his suit sleeve, her eyes a little red. "Could you take me to the embassy?"

He said, "How dare you ask me?"

That night, he came out of the bathroom wearing only a towel.

Their eyes met. Her hand shook as she pulled up her zipper, and her dress slipped halfway down.

He came over and pulled her dress back up. "All you have to do is beckon, and I'll come running."

Standing behind her, he watched her in the mirror, smiling with a mischievous, ambiguous air.

"Satisfied with my performance just now?"

[The snow that swirled around them when they first met quietly melted away years later, on the moonlit night they met again.]

☆ Preorder: Butterfly Without Cause

Wen Jin first met Duan Minghang at a luxury-brand gala, where she was working as a staff member.

In the glittering world of fame and fortune, everyone traded toasts, life was like a play, and the man in the seat of honor watched in silence like a spectator.

She merely happened to glance at the ruby necklace worn by a female star.

That very night, he bought the necklace and gave it to her.

The second time she saw him was on his turf, where she splashed a glass of red wine on someone.

He smiled at her, indulging her like a perfect gentleman and backing her up. "Bring another bottle and let this lady splash to her heart's content."

No one dared defy him. A nearly full glass of red wine was brought over.

In her astonishment, she met the man's amused gaze.

On a rainy night, she stood by the roadside under an umbrella, unable to get a taxi.

Duan Minghang's car came to a stop right beside her. The window rolled down, revealing his stern profile. "My place or yours?"

In everyone else's eyes, he was a privileged monster, cold and heartless. Yet he was willing to submit at her feet and become her most devout believer. "Wen Jin, I don't ask for much. Give me one tenth of your heart, and love me. That's enough."
