Title: Holding You Through the Storm Lu Zhen has never believed in love. To him, attachment is nothing more than a temporary illusion—something that always ends in betrayal, abandonment, or pain. So he keeps his distance, builds his walls, and never lets anyone get close enough to see what’s beneath. Until Lin Xu. Warm, patient, and quietly persistent, Lin Xu enters his life without force—just presence. He notices the things no one else does. The forced smiles. The silence behind Lu Zhen’s coldness. And instead of walking away, he stays. At first, Lu Zhen doesn’t understand it. Then he gets used to it. And before he realizes it… he starts needing it.

Left with nothing but silence and regret, Lu Zhen is forced to face a truth he’s been running from his entire life: Some people don’t leave because they want to… they leave because you make them. When fate brings them face to face again, Lin Xu is no longer the same person who stayed without question. And this time, love isn’t something Lu Zhen can take for granted. To have him back, he’ll have to learn something he never did before— How to stay. How to trust. How to love without breaking everything he touches. Because some storms don’t just destroy you… some force you to rebuild. And this time— Lu Zhen doesn’t want to face it alone. Tagline: Through pain, through fear, through everything—you are mine.
