For ten years, Luo Yixin stood silently by Ren Jiayun’s side—his best friend, his confidante, his shadow. She was the one who knew how he liked his coffee, who answered his late-night calls, who watched him fall in love and fall apart… all while hiding her own feelings behind quiet smiles.

He never noticed the way her heart ached.

And then, without a word, he disappeared.

Years later, when fate brings them back together, Ren Jiayun is no longer the boy she once loved. Cold, distant, and guarded, he looks at her like a stranger. But Yixin isn’t the same girl either—she’s stronger now, no longer waiting in silence.

Still, destiny has its own plans.

Drawn together by circumstance, they share awkward dinners, lingering glances, and moments that feel too familiar to forget. Beneath the surface, emotions long buried begin to stir.

She never stopped loving him.
He never truly forgot her.

But this time, love won't be quiet.

It will be messy, painful, and real.

Can love survive after a decade of silence?
Can two hearts find each other after everything’s changed?
Or is some love meant to be lost forever?

I wanted to share something important with you all. After giving it a lot of thought, I've decided to pause updates for 10 Years of Silence for now.


This story means a lot to me — it carries deep emotions and memories, and I don't want to continue it in a rushed or distracted way. I want to give it the care, time, and heart it truly deserves. But right now, my focus needs to be on another novel that requires my full attention.


So, instead of spreading myself thin, I've decided to take a step back from 10 Years of Silence temporarily. Don't worry — I'm not abandoning it forever. The story will continue when the time feels right, when I can return to it with fresh energy and clear emotions.


Thank you all for understanding, for reading, for every comment and word of support you've given. It means more than I can express. 


Sometimes, even writers need a quiet pause — a little silence — before their words can find meaning again.
