If I knew where you were going, I would not be cold in this life.

When we first met, she was the fourteen-year-old Gu Lingruan. She was cautious and cold because she had witnessed the warmth and coldness of human relationships after her family was destroyed. She was cold and unwilling to say anything.
And that man was wrapped in a black suit. He had a tall figure, eyes like stars, and looked cold and inhumane.
Gu Lingruan admitted that she was afraid of him, very afraid, just like the instinct of a weak animal to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.

A few years later, she saw the tenderness behind that man's indifference, a second of tenderness, a second of heartbeat.
Gu Lingruan understood that she loved him like a moth that was not afraid of life and death and used its life to move towards the fire.
God knows what she can't stand the most is that man's occasional pampering and affection after he becomes cold.
Even those hoarse murmurs that couldn't be true touched her heart and softened her bones.

Later, when the mystery is revealed, when the truth is revealed.
The love she once thought was just a handful of meager sand between her fingers. While she held on to it with all her strength, it fell into the dust and was never seen again.
After years of waking up from dreams, I realize how stupid I am when I am young - who said that what you get from a sincere heart will not be false feelings and falsehood?
"It's better to never meet again."

Later, she curled her lips, and was no longer the little girl who blushed when she saw him. Her eyebrows were affectionate, but her eyes were cold.
No matter which man you are with, you can talk and smile. Even when you see him, you can reach out your hand and say with the right smile, "Mr. Zhou, nice to meet you."
The man opposite casually put out the cigarette on his fingertips and stared at her with a faint and unreadable expression, "Didn't you say we'll never see you again?"
"It's not like Mr. Zhou doesn't know that I'm pretty. I'm not used to the aesthetics of foreigners with blond hair and blue eyes." Her smile was a bit charming.
The man opposite had mist in his eyes, he lifted her chin forcefully, and gently kissed her earlobe, "Then I wonder if you can still like my beautiful Miss Gu?"
