Set against the mist-filled highlands of Qihua Province, this novel follows a decade-long journey of first love, heartbreak, and the fragile hope of finding one's way home again. Lu Chenxi and Jia Liora Velasquez were each other's safe place long before they understood what home truly meant. Their love began in their senior high school years-quiet, deep, and certain-carrying them through the excitement and uncertainties of youth. Jia pursued medicine; Chenxi entered the police academy. But on one devastating night, Chenxi vanished from her life without warning, leaving behind only silence and unanswered questions. For ten years, Jia learned to live without the person who once felt like home. For ten years, Chenxi carried the weight of a truth he believed would destroy them both. Now, fate brings them back together in Miyaran Valley, where Jia joins a medical mission and Chenxi leads a covert surveillance operation. One unexpected glimpse across the spring-lit fields shatters the distance of a decade. As old wounds resurface and long-buried emotions stir, both must confront their past-what broke them, what shaped them, and what still anchors them to each other. This is a story about young love that never faded, the heartaches that shaped them, and the second chance that just might lead them back home-to each other.
