In 2006, after graduating from high school, Ye Xiaoyu boarded a train out of Lincheng, heading in the opposite direction from the boy in her heart.

As she set off for university, she cried all the way from the station to her destination. Never mind, she thought. By then, she would have known Ting'an for exactly ten years.

The boy who had dazzled her throughout her youth had been the reason she worked so hard to become a better person.

Some say you have to wait for time to give its blessing, wait for the spring breeze to bring success.

One day, I'll stand radiant at your side.

At eighteen, Ting'an came from a powerful family, with a handsome face and a brilliant mind. For years, he had held the top spot at Lin City No. 1 High School.

Arrogant with talent, the young man could get anything he wanted with ease. But he had his own regret: the girl he had always protected was gone from his life for years after they parted.

If only he had looked back before boarding that train all those years ago, he would have stayed right there, opened his arms, and held her tight.
