He Tong accidentally slipped into a campus novel and became an inconspicuous person in the book.
There was no preset intersection, but they were quietly involved in getting along day and night: Gu Yucheng would rush to the school hospital for him who had a stomachache, would silently fetch water for him, lecture on topics, would put away his alienation, and show tenderness to him alone; He Tong also gradually let go of the alienation through books, and fell into this unique preference, forgetting that he was just a passerby in the book, and was filled with thoughts of staying with Gu Yucheng.
But fate never favored this secret heartbeat. A sudden serious illness severely shattered all the good things. He Tong knew that he was neither the protagonist of the original work nor that he was suffering from a chronic illness and had no future at all. He hid his illness and deliberately distanced himself despite the pain of his heart. He watched Gu Yucheng go from doubt to anxiety, from panic to reluctance, but he never dared to tell his true feelings. Later, they reunited but Hetong had passed away.
