The Rose Withered in August

The Rose Withered in August Plot:

Lin Xiaoman, a florist, guards her mother's rose garden. Every August, the "Moon-Chasing Red" roses planted by her mother are the promise she made with Chen Mo, her first love who disappeared five years ago: "I'll be back when the roses bloom into a sea." But this August, the roses suddenly withered entirely. She receives an anonymous package: a withered rose and Chen Mo's old notebook. Following the clues, Xiaoman finds Chen Mo—only to see a woman who looks 70% like her standing beside him, his gaze on her as unfamiliar as if they'd never met. Every night, a shadow lurks in the rose garden. Hidden in the withered rose branches is the truth about Chen Mo's "fake death"—he was framed in a heritage dispute. Now he's back to "push Xiaoman away" from danger, but the roses have withered, and his love hidden for five years can no longer be contained.
