About This Novel

When he was seventeen years old, Zhu Xiaoxian stood in the corridor of Yangxi No. 1 Middle School and saw Wen Xuemei, who had transferred to another school, for the first time through the half-open door of the office. With just one glance, this basketball boy who didn't even hand in his homework felt as if a stone had been thrown into a well. From that day on, his life began to revolve around one person - fighting for her, getting into college for her, joining the photography club for her, and risking his life for her on heavy rainy days. She secretly wrote "I hope Zhu Xiaoxian will go to college" on the Kongming Lantern, and he wrote "Go to the same college as Wen Xuemei" on his own lantern. Two young hearts get closer and closer, but they miss each other again and again because of the shadow of their original family, the gap in reality and Zhu Xiaoxian's blurted out sentence "I regret meeting you." From Yangxi to the provincial capital, from the ginkgo avenue of Huaxi University to the white gauze at the wedding scene, in the past fifteen years, they have made each other successful and hurt each other. She once wrote in her diary, "I bet that he will change." He finally spent a long time fulfilling that bet - but the person standing next to her and swearing the oath was no longer him. This is a story about growth and regret. Not all love can go to the end, but those days when you try your best for one person will eventually become the light that illuminates each other's life. When Zhu Xiaoxian wore the tie he had learned to tie and stood in the audience at her wedding and applauded vigorously, he finally understood that he traveled thousands of miles not to reach her, but to become who he is now.
