Xu Yuan & Lin Yichu
Lin Yichu was a sudden wave in Xu Yuan's peaceful life. She thought it would be no more than a little ripple, but it became the longing she carried year after year.
In the final month before the high school entrance exam, the two, who had never interacted before,
slowly got together after friends teased and encouraged them.
They sat in the same row in the same exam room on the day of the test. When the results came out, one went on to high school, while the other enrolled in a vocational school. From then on, they attended different schools in different places.
After the results came out, Lin Yichu said, "It's okay, we're not far apart. We'll see each other often."
"My little girl is taking the college entrance exam! Good luck!"
"When you graduate, let's go see the ocean together."
"When my little girl starts school, I'll take her to college."
"Wherever my little girl goes to school, that's where I'll work."
"Xu Yuan, let's not keep in touch anymore."
"Why?"
"You should know what you want."
"But Lin Yichu, you know perfectly well what I want most..."
Lin Yichu, school has started. Will you come see me off?
Lin Yichu, my university is in Spring City. Will you come visit my campus?
Lin Yichu, it's snowing in Spring City!
Lin Yichu, the ocean isn't nearly as blue as I imagined.
We promised we'd bloom together. We promised we'd see each other often.
Lin Yichu, why can't we talk like we used to?
My name is Xu Yuan. I wish that from now on, I will never love Lin Yichu again.
Well enough…
