   Summary

   When an earthquake brings truth crashing down, Sheng Shaoyou discovers that the omega he loved was never real and now he questions if anything they had together was real. Left to rebuild from the rubble, Shaoyou must learn to distinguish lies from the truth as he navigates a world without Hua Yong. In the silence that follows, he discovers that healing isn't about forgetting, it's about opening yourself to something real. A journey from orchids to sage, from betrayal to trust, and everything in between.
