She, gentle and kind; he, gentle and polite.
She was a commoner woman; he was a descendant of the family.
An encounter, a love,
One separation, one turn,
……
Eighteen years later, people who once loved each other, see each other again, but can only bless each other...
Eighteen years, dreamy years.
The days go by really fast, especially for people after middle age, ten years and eight years seem to refer to gu jian. But for young people, three years and five years can be a lifetime. He and Man Zhen realized that they had broken up, but after a few years of hard work, they had gone through so many things in the past few years, as if they had experienced all the sorrows of life, old age, illness and death.
The first time I met her, what year was it? It's been eighteen years—not eighteen!
- "Half-Life"
Shen Shijun and Gu Manzhen met because of fate, because of encounters, because of knowledge...
However, a man-made "disaster" has left them with no reason to run away from each other...
Man Zhen was not only stripped of his innocence by his own sister, Man Lu, but also under house arrest by his brother-in-law. Then, in October, she was pregnant and gave birth to a baby before she was able to escape.
Shi Jun returned to Shanghai from Nanjing, because there was no news of Man Zhen for a long time, and when he found Man Lu to inquire about Man Zhen's whereabouts, Man Lu returned the ring he gave to Man Zhen and vaguely asked him to cut off his thoughts.
Since then, they have been separated and drifted apart...
Is this "disaster" really man-made?
If Shi Jun had seen Man Zhen with his own eyes after Man Lu gave him the ring, Shi Jun would not have married her to forget this love.
However, Shi Jun is a descendant of the family, and he is afraid that his suspicions will become the children of the family who are now married to others. He didn't have the courage to personally confirm Man Zhen's true thoughts, he could only listen to Man Lu's vague words and try to forget this love affair that made him unforgettable.
This kind of love, why is it not man-made?
As long as Shi Jun is a little persistent, a little firmer, and believes in Man Zhen a little, they may have lovers who will eventually become dependents.
After fourteen years, Shi Jun fantasized about the reunion with Man Zhen countless times, and when it came true, he was in a trance.
After fourteen years, Man Zhen fantasized countless times about telling Shi Jun about her experience, and when it came true, she was a little sad.
Man Zhen lightly confides in Shi Jun the "joke" of fate on her.
Shi Jun was stunned, angry, and eager to give up everything to compensate her.
Man Zhen only said, "Shi Jun, we can't go back."
More than ten years later, Man Zhen finally knew that Shi Jun was single-mindedly in love with her at that time, and Shi Jun also knew that Man Zhen was single-minded to him. The things that had puzzled and pained them had finally made them feel a desolate satisfaction.
A turn of the other ten years ago, giving up the insistence on love.
When we meet again more than a decade later, everything has long been settled.
Fate plays tricks, personality, time has passed, even if there is love, it can only be lost.
It is said that the happiest thing in the world is to find that the person you love happens to love you.
However, after missing it, I found that once love is lost, it cannot be restarted.
Some people miss it once they turn around;
Some love, once missed, is not there.
Live up to the time, leave no regrets!
May there be a lover, accompanied for life!
