In the first half of his life, Feng Shutong followed the rules and restrained himself.
Following his grandfather's teachings, he stayed away from officialdom and followed his father's wishes to read articles by famous writers. His mother told him that his fathers had already decided for him what path he should take and what kind of person he should become.
In the chess game of life, someone has already arranged the troops for him, and no mistakes are allowed.
He walked on the established track, occasionally looking at the road under his feet, but he didn't know why the dirt on the soles of his shoes came from.
Until, he held someone's wrist, and her pulse undulated vigorously, passing through the cold fingertips, passing through the zigzag meridians, and vibrating in his eardrums. He suddenly felt that it turned out that a person had to work so hard to make a small ripple in this still and deep world.
So, he wanted to grab this straw and find the land where he should grow.
For this reason, he is willing to enter the cage, imprison himself, and fulfill his true heart that beats for no reason thousands of times.

Li Shanruo has understood since she was a child that as a daughter of an official family, the so-called fate has always been determined by others. Her love and hate are just an inconspicuous grain of sand. When blown up by the wind, it will only make her eyes red and force out a few insignificant tears.
For her, the word love is too luxurious and too weak.
Many times, she wants to get rid of the shackles of fate and grow into a towering tree. However, he was deprived of sunlight time and time again and was shouted at to leave this land.
But before it got dark, someone stood in the snow and gave her a lamp.

The palace wall loops around, and the night is rich.
Li Shanruo and Feng Shutong each held a palace lantern, illuminating a piece of heaven and earth.
They walked along the palace wall, an arm's length apart.
But no one could have imagined that they would maintain this close distance, support each other, and walk together for many, many years.
''Actually, we are on different paths, but there are countless moments when I really want to leave with you. Therefore, I allowed Broken Bridge to remain ill for a long time, with lingering regrets that are hard to overcome. He walked to your side desperately, but only dared to light a lamp for you. ''
Intention: Whoever you love, you must bear the fate of that person
