Summer Embers

About This Novel

The life of Qi Yu, a top student in No. 1 Middle School, was shaken up by the arrival of transfer student Jiang Ning. This cheerful and tenacious girl transferred from No. 3 Middle School became his deskmate. The moment their fingertips touched, young feelings quietly grew in the exercise book. Jiang Ning's cheering sound at the sports event became Qi Yu's motivation to rush to the finish line; under the old locust tree, he made a promise to go see the sea together after the college entrance examination. When Jiang Ning nodded with tears, there was sadness in his eyes that he could not understand. Jiang Ning had frequent dizziness and suddenly fainted while reading in the morning. Qi Yu hugged her and rushed to the infirmary. On the way, she weakly begged for confidentiality. The school doctor's hesitant look set off alarm bells in his heart. One hundred days before the college entrance examination, Jiang Ning suddenly disappeared, leaving the desks as empty as if no one had ever been there. Qi Yu searched like crazy and only found a rusty lock at her hometown address. On the day she got her college admission notice, Jiang Ning's notebook was sent in an anonymous package. The last page was scrawled: "Qi Yu, I can't wait to see the sea... Don't stop for me." He saw her name in the morgue register of a suburban hospital, dated just three days after she disappeared. Three years later, Qi Yu stood alone on the beach, with the waves covering his ankles, as if he heard that midsummer again, Jiang Ning said with a smile, "I'll wait for you."
