My parents passed away early, so I grew up alongside my aunt.
She had no idea that I'd been secretly dating her best friend Serenity for three years.
One night after drinking, Serenity gazed at me with hazy eyes: "At your age, you should be with someone around your own age. Why don't I find someone for you?"
I nodded solemnly, "Sure, that sounds good."
Because in my past life, I didn't agree. I even bravely declared to the world that I loved her.
Under pressure from family, Serenity had no choice but to marry me.
But after our wedding, she was almost cold towards me, even on the day of my heart transplant surgery.
Serenity spent that day with pure love Nolan instead.
Love that's forced never ends well.
......

This Time I'll Let Go First

I stood at the doorway, motionless for a long time.


Truth is, I'm not smart at all. Otherwise, I wouldn't have believed until my dying day in my past life that Serenity loved me.


Even before the wedding, Nolan had come to see me.


All those things he confessed tonight, I had already seen them play out in my previous life.


Back then, he begged me to let Serenity go.


"Serenity and I have loved each other for seven years. Her heart belongs only to me. She's marrying you just because she feels guilty that you've fallen out with your family for her sake."


"Do you think that kind of pity can sustain your marriage for a lifetime?"


At that time, I told him with unwavering certainty: "Yes, it can."


"Serenity loves me. She will love me for a lifetime."


But later, she grew increasingly impatient with me, wishing she didn't have to see me at all.


Yet with Nolan, she was the epitome of tenderness.
