You don't read a book by flipping to the end. Nor will you hear the whole story from me.

Hidden Under the Rain
Updated at Apr 18, 2026, 23:27
"I'm married," I lied, my voice trembling as I looked into Gu Shen's cold, obsidian eyes.Five years ago, he pulled the heavy curtains closed, leaving me soaked and shivering in the relentless rain like a discarded dog. That day, I lost everything—my pride, my love, and the only home I knew.Five years later, he sent a single message: "I'm leaving for Switzerland. Forever. One last meeting... please."Gu Shen never said "please." That word alone crushed what was left of my heart.I thought this would be a dignified goodbye. I thought I could hide the truth behind my fake wedding ring and my kind, gentle "husband."But I was wrong.When my daughter, Nian Nian, reached out her chubby hand toward him, the secret I’d guarded with my life began to crumble. Nian Nian—"Never Forget." She has his eyes. His deep, soul-piercing eyes.Gu Shen finally understood that the greatest regret isn't a loud goodbye. It’s giving someone up with your own hands, only to realize years later that you didn't just lose a girl.You lost an entire life.The rain is pouring again. This time, no one is pulling the curtains. But for some, the rain has already fallen for a lifetime.
