(Based on a true story + Mutual Secret Crush)
Cool, reserved science-and-engineering guy × quirky, funny girl
It began when a young girl, caught up in the first stirrings of love, fell for him at first sight and loved him more with every meeting. Wherever she looked, she saw him; every view along the way was filled with him.
At graduation, the girl could no longer hold back. The feelings she had kept hidden for three years burst forth as she searched through the sea of people for the boy tucked away in her heart.
Xie Jinling’s eyes lit up. There he was! “Lin Feng, do you know that I like you?” Xie Jinling stared at him without blinking, afraid to miss a single expression or movement. She looked calm on the outside, but the hand clutching the hem of her clothes gave away her nervousness.
The bashful boy seemed unprepared. He stumbled over his words and avoided her gaze. “I…I don’t know.” Then he turned and hurried away, leaving the girl standing there, stunned.
…One year later, during the Mid-Autumn Festival, the boy, alone in a faraway land, poured out his heart to the girl. “Sis, will you take me home? I know you’re the best. Please?”
A youthful secret crush is a one-person war. One moment of carelessness, and you can lose completely.
