[Misplaced secret crush + Love grows over time + Youthful campus romance]
One autumn breeze rose, and the blazing sun sank. From the first moment Nan Qing saw Jiang Yi'an, she had secretly fallen for him. As they spent more time together, she kept falling deeper under the spell of his warmth, thoughtfulness, and excellence. But he shone too brightly, like the blazing sun in the daytime, forever radiant. Nan Qing was only a scattered star in the night sky. No matter how hard she tried to shine, her light was still faint. So she could only hide her feelings for him in her heart.
But people have desires, and desire makes us long for things. Nan Qing wanted an answer, one that felt greedy to her. At last, she worked up the courage to ask about the rumor: Had Jiang Yi'an already fallen for someone else? But the answer left her abruptly heartbroken. He didn't deny it.
At the end of a beautiful dream came the awakening. Nan Qing decided to slowly forget Jiang Yi'an, but love was the hardest thing to forget. So for six years, she struggled alone in this muted infatuation, falling into it again and again. Perhaps fate had a kind heart. Just as Nan Qing was about to end this pitiful one-woman show, Jiang Yi'an confessed his feelings to her. Tragically, their romance ultimately came to nothing. Jiang Yi'an suddenly told her they should break up, and their relationship ended in haste. But Nan Qing didn't know that someone had always been by her side, watching her fall for someone else and pine for someone else.
Gu Muxi only said, “Nan Qing, I’m willing to wait for you forever, until you start to like me, until you truly love me. Nan Qing, even a scattered star has someone who loves it most faithfully.”
