A Dreamlike Love: This Life and the Next

A story from Fei Wo Si Cun’s A Good Dream series, beloved by countless readers. When it comes to love, either you meet the right person at the wrong time, or you both lose to reality. If everything had gone just right, there would have been no later anguish, no heartbreak like a thousand arrows piercing the heart. Shou Shou once believed that she and Yi Changning were made for each other, the other half she was destined to be with for this life and the next: inseparable, irresistible, and certain to end up together after all their trials and hardships. But the happiness she had once been so sure of collapsed overnight, and every illusion shattered. Love was no longer love, and hate was no longer hate... Ji Nanfang became Shou Shou’s lifeline in that moment. They had grown up together and were as close as siblings, but she was at a loss and resisted the idea. The past receded into a haze of time. Three years later, Yi Changning returned, bearing secrets unknown to others, while Ji Nanfang’s long-concealed feelings gradually came to light... Some brave the flames for love, some press on without turning back, and some know the road leads to ruin yet still follow it to the end. Longing for what cannot be had, parting from the beloved: life is full of such things.
