About This Novel

In the late autumn of his sophomore year in high school, Lin Wang saw the lights on the other side for the first time after studying in the evening. He was a "problem student" in the key science class. He always hid under the plane tree behind the teaching building and smoked, staring at the lights of the Art High School across the river in a daze. In that warm yellow, there is a light that always stays on until very late, like a stubborn star. Su Wan is the owner of that lamp. She is an art student, and she always paints in the studio until late at night. The drawing board is facing the window. When she looks up, she can see the blurry shadows of trees on the other side of the river, and the occasional flash of scarlet - that is the light of Lin Wang's cigarette butt. They were separated by a river and shared the same night, but they never knew each other existed. Until an inter-school art exhibition, Lin Wang was stunned in front of Su Wan's painting "The Other Bank": in the painting, there was a blurry figure under the shadow of the sycamore tree, and the lights on the other bank shattered into gold foil on the river.
