[You Alone Make the Galaxy Shine; Together, We’ll Share Every Day and Night]
After graduating from university, Jiang Mianmian returns to her alma mater as an art teacher. There, she meets her high school teacher, Xie Qi.
A youthful crush, followed by a lifetime walking side by side.
“Xie Qiqi, the moon is beautiful tonight.”
Xie Qi gives a soft reply. Jiang Mianmian gazes at the moon, while he clumsily, without a hint of restraint, gazes at the one he loves.
How do I tell you I love you?
It’s like the Earth to the Moon:
I orbit around you,
over and over, willingly.
(Note: The story includes many scenes from the heroine’s high school years, mostly told in flashbacks, so you can read it as a coming-of-age memoir. The hero was her subject teacher in high school, but there was nothing inappropriate between them at the time. No corrupting the nation’s young flowers!)
Content warnings: Clean romance, both leads are each other’s first, an extremely innocent hero, an eight-year age gap, the heroine has a first love who died young, amateurish writing, and a slow pace.
