You Were Right There in the Wind

“Don’t chase the wind. You’re already in it.”

[Gentle Doctor Ma Jiaqi × Quiet Photographer Han Siyu]

The couple everyone at school once called a match made in heaven broke up four years ago. No one knew why. All anyone knew was that, before leaving, Han Siyu said, “Ma Jiaqi, I hate you.” Rumors and gossip soon spread across campus.

Four years later, they meet again, but the circumstances leave Ma Jiaqi stunned. When he sees the girl lying weakly in a hospital bed, his fear reaches its peak. He is terrified that something might happen to the girl he has longed for every day, so he finally lets out a breath of relief when she comes through the emergency room doors safe and sound.

After a few chance encounters, they begin talking a little more. But Ma Jiaqi knows all too well that the girl hates him. Everything she does shows that she is avoiding him, trying to keep their contact to a minimum.

Just as Ma Jiaqi is about to finally let go, he discovers the love the girl has hidden deep in her heart, and decides to pursue her all over again.

Back then, he asked, “Can I pursue you after the college entrance exams?”

Now, he asks, “Can I pursue you again?”
