This sudden separation lasted ten long years. Childhood sweethearts / Ill-fated lovers / The unforgotten first love The younger twin brother (Older brother Pei Shang'an already released) … His father was an incompetent, impoverished man who managed to trick his high-born mother into marriage. Soon after, his mother saw through the reality and escaped the marriage, taking Meng Shangyi with her. His older brother was left behind to live with their father. Their mother tried returning to negotiate taking the older brother too, but failed and nearly got entangled with the father again. The money she left for the older brother was shamelessly pocketed by the father. From then on, his mother and he stayed far away from that place and never saw his brother again. He never spoke of this past to anyone. … At eight years old, you met Meng Shangyi when he transferred to your school. Since your families did business together and were close, you had endless opportunities to interact, and naturally became inseparable. Young Meng Shangyi was as pretty as a flower, sensible, and obedient. You proudly made him your little sidekick, calling out "Meng Shangyi" from morning till night. Every day, you chose what he wore, and he arranged what you ate and used. You two were joined at the hip—cramming homework together overnight before school started, wandering the streets after class, him keeping watch while you snuck out to play, and you cheering while he played basketball. Burning the midnight oil before the college entrance exam, your heads bumped together from sheer exhaustion, laughing at each other's silly faces and teasing who would beat whom on the exam, neither willing to admit they had almost dozed off. … After their father was imprisoned for his crimes, his mother finally brought back his suffering older brother, Pei Shang'an. Though Pei Shang'an was no longer close to him, Meng Shangyi was still happy for him. It seemed everything was heading in a good direction… Then the car crash came without warning. Before falling unconscious, Meng Shangyi was still thinking of going to find you. The accident left his right eye completely blind and his left eye with barely a fraction of its sight. He was supposed to attend the country's top university with you, but now he even had to relearn how to walk. To maintain the family enterprise in the future and compensate the left-behind Pei Shang'an, their mother allowed Pei Shang'an to take over Meng Shangyi's identity. Meng Shangyi wanted to find you, but was stopped by Pei Shang'an and their mother. To prevent anyone from discovering the truth, Pei Shang'an used an excuse to send him to a sparsely populated island abroad to recuperate. The people around him monitored his every move around the clock. He understood what Pei Shang'an was trying to do. He could let go of everything, except you… Day after day, he sat in his room, blindly pouring his heart into the piano. Over the years, the chaotic noise gradually returned to the sweet, lingering melodies of the past, but the young man only withered further in the agony of missing you. In dreams and waking hours alike, he could never forget you. Yet in all these years, the only news he received about you was your upcoming marriage to Pei Shang'an. Pei Shang'an seemed to have truly become Meng Shangyi. What about him, then… He was left with nothing, not even the one he loved…
