When He Left, My Heart Felt Empty

Detailed synopsis: Book One: The autumn wind scatters the plane-tree leaves, and with them the tenderness of five years spent together. Shen Yichen leaves in pursuit of a distant dream and the “better future” he claims to want, leaving Su Nian alone in the city steeped in memories. His message, “I'm leaving tomorrow,” becomes a thorn lodged in her heart; his promise, “We'll get engaged next autumn,” is left behind in the passage of time. After he leaves, every corner bears his traces, and every moment leaves her feeling empty inside. With mountains and rivers between them and a thousand miles separating them, how long will this seemingly endless wait last before she sees her old love return?
