Lin Wei (Qingmeng)'s youth was like an old book that had been folded repeatedly, until he met Jiang Yubai - the boy who talked eloquently in debates and whose shirt was always as clean as the first snow. In the eyes of the teacher, he was the proud one, the one with his own light in the crowd, but one night after studying in class, he tilted his umbrella towards her who was hiding under the bulletin board to avoid the rain.
"Lin Wei," he looked down at her, his voice gentler than the night, "The logic of your paper is very interesting."
A casual affirmation suddenly awakened her heart hidden in the shell of inferiority. She began to secretly follow him on the same road, filling the entire notebook with the list of books he mentioned casually, and even clumsily signed up for a charity project he participated in just to get closer to him. She thought that this secret love would be like a soda that was limited to summer, hidden deep in the desk and slowly expired, but she did not expect that Jiang Yubai would suddenly turn around and hold her trembling hand.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time," he said.
What I thought was a one-way glimmer of light has turned into a two-way galaxy of salvation. They stayed up long nights in the library together, watched the sunrise on the playground, and wrote poems about each other about all the timidity and bravery in their youth. However, the family gap and future choices are like invisible walls, causing Jiang Yubai's "living up to Tathagata" (sticking to his ideals) and Lin Wei's "living only Qing" (only failing himself) to collide. When the storm of reality hits, can the boy who once said "never let you go" still lead her to overcome all obstacles and turn the cool dream into a hot reality?
