High-IQ CP | Body Type Difference | Sweet and Angst | Chinese American

[Female Lead Perspective]

Ada's marriage ended in its tenth year.

There was no quarrel, betrayal, or financial problem—she held tenure and multiple patents; he was a second-tier actor with film offers and business deals.

She simply didn't understand how they went from being soulmates to becoming the most familiar strangers.

Was it when he abandoned his doctoral studies to become an actor? Or because his transformative work failed, leading to his subsequent depression?

Year by year, the invisible wall of air grew thicker, and the taboo topics at the dinner table multiplied.

He killed the man with light in his eyes, the man she had loved.

She proposed divorce, and after a long silence, he signed with a bitter smile.

She boarded the plane, holding back tears.

But the plane crashed, and she actually returned to the proposal day, seeing the young, passionate him.
