The two first crossed paths when they were eight, at Lin Nai's mother's funeral in the cemetery.
Duan Yuhuai was carrying white chrysanthemums for his mother when he bumped into Lin Nai, dressed in a white dress.
With tears in her eyes, the girl hurriedly apologized.
By the time Duan Yuhuai came to his senses, she had already run off.
In the years that followed, whenever Duan Yuhuai went to the cemetery to visit his mother, he would see a group of people from the northern section. But it was always the little girl in the group who looked the most heartbroken.
They properly met later, during the winter break of their second year of high school.
She thought that was when they first met. In truth, he had carefully engineered their encounter long ago.
“I'm Duan Yuhuai,” the boy said. “I'm from No. 4 High School.”
Lin Nai looked up at him. He seemed familiar, and then she recognized him.
Lin Nai went to No. 4 High School too.
No. 4 was just an ordinary high school, but after recruiting the city's top scorer in the high school entrance exam two years earlier, it had been bragging about it ever since.
Yes, Duan Yuhuai was that top scorer.
“What's your name?” Duan Yuhuai suddenly asked.
“Lin Nai,” she replied. “I'm from No. 4 too.”
“What?” Perhaps the wind was too strong; Duan Yuhuai hadn't heard her clearly.
“Lin Nai!” she said louder.
“Oh,” Duan Yuhuai said, then added, “I remember you. Second place on the honors board.”

I like this book very much. The author writes about the feelings in high school very delicately, and the content is also very real. Many places are full of details. Without bragging, it is much better than other brainless romances on Tomato. I like this kind of high-quality romances the most. I feel comfortable reading it, and a little bit of sugar is in my heart. The more I read, the more addictive I am. I highly recommend it. I love it so much. I love you, the author. It's a pity that it's still a new book and it doesn't have enough content. I hope the author will stick with it. I will keep reading and look forward to the follow-up stories.
