After being dumped without explanation, Wen Nanyu followed Pei Chuxiao's car for over a thousand kilometers, only to run into his older brother, Pei Qingwen, at a hotel.
Once, when the brothers still lived together, she stayed the night and went to take a call in the living room, afraid of waking her boyfriend. A man leaned against the bar, drinking with lazy ease, but the look he gave her was dark and intimidating.
He disliked her, and she was afraid of him.
Luckily, she hadn't seen him since Pei Chuxiao started living alone.
When she was brought to Pei Chuxiao's door, Wen Nanyu hesitated, troubled by her own underhanded behavior.
"He knew you'd follow him." Hearing the implication, she went pale.
The man unlocked the door. As footsteps drew closer, he whispered, "Think about it. Want to switch to me?"
The three of them crossed the uninhabited region in two cars. Pei Qingwen took off his suit and his refined facade, advancing step by step, wild and untamed.
The vast expanse of Qiangtang offered nowhere to escape his domineering tenderness.
The bumpy National Highway 216 made their hearts beat with the swaying world.
Even with her boyfriend right beside her.
On the way back, a storm caused a serious traffic jam on the highway.
In the car ahead, Pei Chuxiao glanced at the rearview mirror and spoke into the radio: "It's no fun being stuck with my mute brother. Nanyu, come ride with me."
In the car behind, Wen Nanyu was pinned in the cramped space against the seat, caught up in Pei Qingwen's heated, forceful advances, unable to answer.
The man everyone called mute murmured, "Please, choose me."

The day after Pei Chuxiao broke up with her, he headed west, driving slowly enough to make sure his tail could keep up.
Wen Nanyu's love was suffocating. Writing her name on his abs was too much. He wanted her to learn her lesson and behave better.
Pei Qingwen suggested he go to Qiangtang, saying that at the edge of the wilderness, the heart could crack open.
The day after Wen Nanyu broke up with him, Pei Chuxiao followed her car all the way to the hotel.
He pounded on the door like a madman. The person he found wasn't Wen Nanyu, but his brother.
Pei Qingwen's black hair was dripping wet, his bath towel hung loose, and the tattoo on his abdomen was still red. The name Wen Nanyu stood out clearly.
Pei Chuxiao realized that the cartoon portrait his brother had treasured for years looked just like her.
His brother, usually so self-controlled, had gotten drunk and lost control after Wen Nanyu stayed over. It had been because of her.
At the edge of the wilderness, every crack led back to her.
