Summary: After I found out that I had a terminal illness, I ran into my former high school classmate, Ran Qingzhuang.

The trajectory of his life changed completely because of something I reported him for in high school, and his existence became just like trash.

Without a doubt, I had ruined him…

Even though I was a lowly, despicable person, I still wanted to make up for some of my wrongdoings before I died; that way, I could go to heaven peacefully.

My patience for him, my attempts to please him, my obedience to him—all of it was for the sake of atonement. However… I think he misunderstood something??

Ran Qingzhuang (wild beast-like gong) x Ji Ning (abnormally lowly for the sake of atonement shou)

Translation Notes

1. 冉青庄: If you know anything about HNQ, you know she loves naming her MLs after birds. Qingzhuang is another name for a grey heron! 🐦
2. 季柠: Similarly, HNQ loves naming her MCs after plants. The Ning in Ji Ning means lemon. 🍋
