Cover blurb:

And his life had been but a prelude to these three things – a summer shower, a glimpse of inky reeds and one man.

Summary by the translator:

Shen Liangsheng is lying in the dirt bleeding away when a doctor, Ch'in Ching, discovers the wounded man. This sets off a series of events, some the doctor expected and others that catches him off guard but are nonetheless all a part of destiny's plans to pit these two men's desires against their principles.

Comment:

Hiya! I'm back with the prequel to my translation, Till Death Do Us Part. This story is set in the wuxia world and may be a bit confusing for those without any knowledge about this genre. I hope the footnotes will help you grasp the idea and concepts of wuxia, but if you want to know more there are lots and lots of translated material online.
