One midsummer when she was fifteen, a girl who witnessed a crime was forced into silence. The seed of evil was planted, and eventually, nourished by malice, it grew into a twisted monster that finally devoured her completely in the summer of her twenty-seventh year.
By the window of a shabby rental apartment, Song Ran counted out her sleeping pills and thought, Enough. Whether it's resentment or hatred, let it all go.
"I'm sorry, Xu Qinghe."
Her voice message faded into the static, carrying a smile of relief.
Her vision began to blur. Dizziness, vomiting, suffocation... The pain of dying always makes you feel more vividly than ever that you are alive.
Song Ran closed her eyes.
But through the haze, a voice she knew better than any other reached her ears...
Xu Qinghe never imagined that after nearly ten years of painstaking planning, she would end up driving Song Ran to the brink of death.
It all began with a mistake that summer when they were fifteen.
Back then, her hazy possessiveness had only just begun to sprout.
Her twisted thoughts were still just a fragile seedling.
She wanted to be with Song Ran.
She wanted to kiss her like a lover.
She wanted to build a gilded cage and keep her by her side forever, for all eternity.
Even the god of death shouldn't be allowed to separate us.
The ambulance siren cut through the sky. Xu Qinghe listened to the voice message on her phone, kneeling amid the scattered mess.
This is all my fault...
she thought.
If only I had...

(Silly puppy X seductive older woman)
Graduation, then unemployment.
As Jiang Yueming fretted over her bank balance, her roommate sidled up mysteriously and asked if she wanted to take a job that paid fast.
The job was at a women-friendly bar, where she would chat, drink, and play games with the customers.
But on the very first day of her part-time job, a woman inexplicably took her home.
Naturally, the woman had brought her back to play some grown-up games.
But the girl was completely clueless. After several failed attempts to seduce her, Xi Wenqing ended up worked up herself. The next day, she casually sent the girl on her way, thinking she would never take such a thankless job again. Yet the girl's bright eyes kept turning over and over in her mind.
And so...
When someone gave the girl a hard time, she stepped in to drink for her.
When the girl couldn't earn enough to cover her living expenses, she showered her with money.
When the girl couldn't find a job, she had the HR department create a new position on the spot.
It took Jiang Yueming a while to realize that Xi Wenqing seemed far too good to her. She consulted her roommate, who had plenty of relationship experience.
Her roommate was certain: She definitely wants to keep you!
Jiang Yueming: !!
Wahhh, she only wants my body!
Jiang Yueming was heartbroken. Jiang Yueming protested. Jiang Yueming burst into tears.
Xi Wenqing, her chest drenched with snot and tears, could only rub her forehead helplessly.
Is it possible, and I mean just possibly, darling, that I actually want to pursue you?
Theme: True love can cross time and heal suffering.
I've read Chapter 39. What a wonderful article. I'm addicted again, but I still have to prepare for the exam. I can't continue reading today, otherwise my plan for today will not be completed. I just saw this article. It was recommended on Twitter. I originally planned to put it in my favorites and read the beginning first. But the more I read, the more I read. Whenever I thought that the situation would develop like that, there would be some unexpected reversals. To be honest, I think this article is better than many Lily channels. Those mediocre plots are all exciting, and of course there are some puzzles in the middle. For example, in the first few chapters, I almost thought that the heroine really turned a blind eye to the suffering of the second heroine, but luckily that didn't happen. What attracted me to continue reading was the author's comment in the comment area, "We are often led to the truth by one-sided facts, and we don't have enough patience to listen to the truth." So I continued to read, and after reading it, I felt more and more beautiful, whether it was Song's mental pain or Xu's worries about gains and losses. About Song , how do you say that sentence "I will love you against my instinct" Even though the mental torture has tortured me beyond recognition, I am still willing to embrace the world for you because I love you, because I love you, so when I still don't understand love, I am willing to protect you ignorantly. The reflection effect of the heart seems to be always greater than my reason, which is always awake but not quite sober [Rose]
Is there any sweet side story? It's so bitter for the couple 🥺
It's over. Just a little while ago, I went back to hypnotizing people again 😭
Well written, the writing style is stable and the characters are vivid. Works without controversy are too boring, so stick with it.
Will I be tortured later? Xiao Song is quite pitiful. Let Xiao Xu know Xiao Song's experience, and then let's solve the problem together [Let me be healthy] [Let me be Kangkang]
After all the twists and turns, luckily we finally got together. It was so hard. Could you please make a side story? After all the hard work, the joy comes.
Is there any extra? I want to watch Xiao Qinghe
I followed you all the way from Zhihu. Boss, you are getting better too. I also saw someone on Xiaohongshu recommending Ranhe and it has more than 200 likes.
The thing I was most worried about happened. . . 😭
This book is not finished yet. I am already thinking about what to write next. There are several options for the previous short stories. Lu Shanyue's big star and manager team, Xue Baixue's eldest lady and miserable little follower team, Xia Rongjin's skin thirst syndrome and the deep closet team (but this should be greatly changed from the character to the plot) and the most difficult to write, Jiang Si and Songtong's variety show. The early reunion of Bai Meng and Song Wuyou's foolish little emperor and eldest princess may also be salvaged. Ah, I didn't think about it. .
