The boy was five the first time he saw the girl. She wore a white dress and slept in her grandmother’s arms. One glimpse was enough to etch her into his heart.
He saw her again at her grandmother’s funeral. The third time they met, they had both grown up. That year, the girl stayed by her mother’s side, while the boy left the orphanage.
They met again in their final year of high school, and became deskmates.
When Ren Yu smiled at her from the podium, she didn’t understand why.
Later, at graduation, the boy stood onstage once more and smiled at the girl in the audience, just as he had the day they first met.
No matter how many people surrounded him, she was the only one in his eyes.
He used to think the girl belonged in the sunlight. No matter how much he liked her, how could he bear to hold her back?
But as time went on, the boy fell deeper and deeper, and the girl could no longer escape his love…
She said, “A Yu, no one has ever protected me or cared for me like this…”
His eyes filled with tenderness and love. “A Yuan, from now on, you have me.”
