A Solitary Light on the Green Mountains

About the story

On the eve of their wedding, Shen Zhixing goes camping with his fiancée He Qing and her friends, only to discover that, with Qin Yu back, he has always been merely a substitute. Being left in the rain with a fever, deliberately excluded, and having his old belongings secretly hidden finally exhausts his feelings of three years. He cancels the wedding, resigns from his job, and makes a fresh choice about his career and life. Only when she truly loses him does He Qing recognize her favoritism and arrogance. Abandoning her pride, she desperately tries to win him back, but receives only “Too late.” In the end, Shen Zhixing boards a southbound high-speed train, leaves his old love behind for good, and moves toward a new life of his own.
