   Summary

   Jinshi always feared that one day death would finally catch up to him.

   Maomao simply never expected it to happen first.

   When a single poisoned meal steals the future they were supposed to share, Maomao is left with nothing but grief, regret, and the memories of a man she never got to love loudly enough.
