Chapter 1: First encounter
The sunlight shines through the sycamore leaves on campus and onto the books in my hands, forming patches of mottled light and shadow. I sat on the bench next to the playground, immersed in the world of books, until a crisp laughter broke the tranquility.
I raised my head and saw her - Lin Xiaowei. She was walking with a group of girls laughing, holding a badminton racket in her hand, and her face was filled with youthful glory. At that moment, it was as if time had stopped for her and I couldn't take my eyes away from her.
She noticed me, smiled and nodded to me. I responded in panic, my heart beating like a drum. At that moment, I knew she was the one in my life.
