[A sunny, passionate top student senior × a gentle, radiant campus beauty freshman]
[University campus × top students × two strong leads × mutual secret crush]
Eileen Chang once wrote: “When she saw him, she became so humble, so humble she was reduced to dust.”
But there's a second half to that line: “Yet she was happy in her heart, and flowers bloomed from the dust.”
On graduation day, Xu Wenzhou fell from a great height like a kite with its strings cut, staining the girl's pristine white dress red.
When he opened his eyes again, he was back at the start of his freshman year.
“Have we met before?”
“No.”
“Then let me introduce myself first. I'm a sophomore in the math department. My name is Xu Wenzhou.”
“Hello, senior. I'm a freshman in the Chinese department. My name is Tang Linxi.”
When they met again, Tang Linxi refused to be a flower that never bloomed. She would break through the earth, grow a thorny stem, and, when she bloomed, become the most dazzling and radiant rose of all.
So what if he was the campus heartthrob and a genius? She would never feel inferior.
Liking someone isn't just about admiring how brilliantly they shine. It's about shining right alongside them.
He was a blazing sun, and so was she.
This time, it was time to put an end to this secret crush.
