[Cool exterior, tender heart] [Slow-burn romance] [Everyday life, steady and enduring love, mutual healing]
Shen Zhixue is a first-year architecture student at Linhai University. Cool and aloof, she is like an endless snowfall, keeping everyone at a distance.
Lu Shi'an is a long-distance runner majoring in computer science. Gentle and quiet, he leads a disciplined, peaceful life.
They meet by chance on a flight to Pingluo, then become roommates under the same roof after a chaotic apartment-rental debacle.
She is a slow-to-warm, taciturn iceberg. He is a gentle, restrained flame.
Day after day, the routines of life bring small arguments and misunderstandings, drawing them closer, then pushing them apart.
Until one day, Shen Zhixue coldly shuts everyone out. But at her most wretched moment, she looks up and sees him.
He walks over, crouches down, and offers her a cup of hot milk. His voice is low and firm. “Zhixue, don’t be afraid. I’m here.”
Everyone thinks Shen Zhixue’s heart is too cold for anyone to understand. Only Lu Shi'an knows that snow can melt for one person.
The logic is clear and the plot is rich, unlike other novels; it depicts freedom struggle and power struggle very well. Especially the development and twists and turns of the relationship between the male and female protagonists
