For the Rest of Our Lives, We’ll Find Peace

The legendary Zhou Chen'an is ridiculously handsome.

As the leading member of the "Four Hotties of Fuzhong," he is elegant, aloof, and unruly, always making the girls who pass him sneak a look back and whisper among themselves. Arrogant and domineering, he skips class and hates studying, yet falls for Ren Ran, a kindhearted, innocent girl who excels in both character and academics.

The legendary Li Cheng is outrageously wicked.

Cruel, twisted, sinister, and dark, he always wears a bizarre expression that warns people to stay away. With a mischievous, teasing smile, he says to Ren Ran, "What should I do? I think I've fallen in love with you. If Zhou Chen'an weren't here, would you fall in love with me?"

From then on, Ren Ran suffers one heartbreak after another through her youth. Her father's business fails disastrously, leaving him buried in debt he cannot repay. He turns to drink and repeatedly abuses his family, and her beloved grandmother dies as a result. Her best friend Juanzi endures a lifetime of pain and silent suffering. In the pitch darkness and bloody devastation of Wanyan Ping's life, summer finally arrives, but death separates them one by one... A nightmare of a winter, a blood-red summer. After Ren Ran is repeatedly injured and then kidnapped, her lover leaves. For love, she gives up her dreams and her chance to attend university. She should have gone north, but instead she heads south and leaves...

The sorrow and pain, death and loss of being eighteen: all the filthy, sordid darkness... She experiences it all at eighteen.
