The year Liang Qi married her wife, Jiang Yuan, she was already 28. Successful in her career and living comfortably, their life together was peaceful.
Except for one flaw: Jiang Yuan barely spoke.
Liang Qi had complained countless times to her friends about her wife’s extreme introversion. But after Jiang Yuan’s death, she discovered a stash of antidepressants and over a decade’s worth of medical reports hidden in her wife’s bedside drawer.
That night, while driving to a company meeting, Liang Qi lost focus and crashed into a guardrail.
When she opened her eyes again, she found herself back at the age of 18.
Walking down the school’s tree-lined path, she saw her high school-aged wife being cornered and bullied by a group of vicious girls.
Her heart pounded like thunder, and without hesitation, she rushed forward to save her.
Liang Qi grinned: “Hey there, little one. How about sticking with me from now on?”
Jiang Yuan frowned: “You scared my friend. Aren’t you going to apologize?”
Liang Qi: ??
I thought I was the hero saving the damsel, but turns out I just stirred the pot?
Ten years ago, Jiang Yuan was cold, aloof, and constantly targeted at school like an unyielding block of ice.
Yet her desk mate, oblivious to boundaries, loved teasing her.
The whole school knew Liang Qi had a crush on Jiang Yuan, but Jiang Yuan remained indifferent.
One day, Jiang Yuan spotted her desk mate huddled with a group of friends on the playground, gesturing excitedly: “When she gets here, just do this…”
Jiang Yuan, puzzled: “Huh?”
Hearing her voice, Liang Qi instantly hid behind her, fake-sobbing while stuffing an onion into her pocket: “You came to save me after all! I knew you loved me!”
Jiang Yuan: …
Keep pretending. See where that gets you.
May I spend my life tenderly kissing your scars, embracing love, and being the eternal, blazing light in your frozen world.
