Under the parasol tree that year, the chubby boy clutched his torn-up homework. Fifteen-year-old Lin Xingran crouched in front of him, golden sunlight at her feet.

When the media vied to report on Jiwei's sharp tongue, only Lin Xingran had seen him on the training base's rooftop, using a rose stem wet with night dew to carve "XXZ" into the concrete. He could shut down haters in three sentences during a livestream, but the instant he received a call from overseas, he would drop everything and focus on the phone.

"Xingxing, is the moon in New York as sweet as the one in Guangzhou?"

When Xu Xinzhen lost a match, Lin Xingran would return to China to keep him company.

"Why are you just like you were as a kid? You still don't know how to take care of yourself."
