An Old Sweet Story About Rebirth

On a sweltering summer night in Milltown, Tyler—a withdrawn 19-year-old doing everything he can to protect his little sister—met a stranger who would change the course of his life.
That man, Shane Xie, seemed to come out of nowhere. He cleared Tyler’s debts, arranged the surgery Emily desperately needed, and scared off the local thugs who had come looking for trouble.
But Tyler didn’t trust him.
No one good had ever stayed in his life, and this man, with his polished shoes and sharp eyes, wouldn’t be the exception.
Sure enough, Shane Xie soon handed him a contract—detailed, precise, binding. Generous rewards, yes. But also obligations. And still… Tyler signed.
From that day forward, the two began living under one roof.
Shane Xie was used to power, accustomed to control. He took his image seriously, sometimes absurdly so.
"You’ve lost weight," he said with a frown. "People will think I’m starving you."
And then, as if it were the most natural thing in the world, he delicately scooped out crab roe and placed it in Tyler’s bowl.
“You don’t have a card? That won’t do. Other boyfriends get gold cards. You get a black card with no limit.”
Tyler stared. Speechless.
“Oh, and someone offered you $5 million to leave me?” Shane added casually. “I’ll give you ten times that to stay. Let’s see them try to compete with that.”
Tyler: “…”
One evening, as they sat in the quiet of their small kitchen, Shane gave a crooked, villainous smile.
“Study abroad? Of course. Watching my little bird fly farther than the rest—there’s no feeling better than that. Not even being a CEO.”
Tyler looked up at him, puzzled, and hesitantly reached out to wipe away the tears slipping down Shane’s cheek.
“Then… why are you crying?”
_____________________
From Shane’s Perspective
In his past life, Shane Xie loved Tyler with everything he had.
But their time together was cruelly short. They met late, loved briefly, and were married only three years before death stole Tyler away.
After that, Shane was a shell of a man. Lost. Numb. Until fate—or something like it—sent him ten years into the past.
Back to a time when Tyler was still young, angry, and full of thorns.
Shane knew the boy didn’t believe in kindness anymore. That trust was a foreign language to him.
But this time, Shane would do it differently. Or maybe just more desperately.
If he had to lie, manipulate, and push—he would. He would stay by Tyler’s side, no matter what.
And wait.
Wait until the day Tyler's frozen heart began to thaw.
Wait until he loved him again.
