The Daylight Thief of the Human World x The Stunning Guest from Lichuan
A self-disciplined, gentle writer x A radiant, straightforward innkeeper
-
On her graduation trip, Song Man was captivated by the sea in Lichuan and opened an inn by the shore, naming it Dream Blue.
Later, Song Man met Jiang Yan at Dream Blue.
He was refined and aloof, like the bright moon in the sky, beyond reach, yet radiating a light that drew people into its depths.
Song Man had never been a coward in love.
She was simply unlucky enough to have her very first confession turned down by Jiang Yan.
He said, "Song Man, Lichuan isn't the only sea in this world."
"Beyond this sea, new horizons are waiting for you."
In this love, Song Man walked ninety-nine steps alone.
There was nothing innocent about the way Jiang Yan looked at her.
But no matter how close they came, a dense fog always lay between them, leaving everything vague and their feelings ambiguous.
Until one rainy day, she received a book.
On the title page, it said: "Dedicated to my beloved, Song Man."
It was Jiang Yan's last letter, and it was also his love letter.
Now the fog has lifted. You will know that I love you.
He urged Song Man to cross that sea, but he himself was lost in it forever.
[Love is a clear-eyed surrender]
[But, my dear,]
[How could the Daylight Thief of the Human World ever let down a beauty?]
