Rust Wind & Wrong Love: Rebirth of the Heart

Raised in the dormitory compound of an old steel mill, Lin Xiaoman’s childhood was marked by the smell of rust. She loved Chen Mo, her “white-shirt senior,” with all her heart for ten years—he’d protected her from bullies and promised to stay by her side as her father lay dying. But right after her father’s death, she uncovered Chen Mo’s secret: his love was a lie, driven solely by greed for her father’s factory equity.

Finally facing the truth, Xiaoman threw Chen Mo’s ring into the rusty wind and took Zhou Yan’s hand. This time, she didn’t want “perfect love”—she wanted “real warmth,” a flower blooming from the rust, just for herself.
