Gentle, delicate “white flower” Lin Xi × rebellious basketball star Su Ye
In high school, Lin Xi was the quiet, introverted top student in everyone’s eyes, while Su Ye was the dazzling, flamboyant star of the basketball court.
She seemed to passively accept his awkward advances, but through a notebook filled with sketches, a perfectly timed show of concern, and a competition they fought through side by side, she quietly found her way into his heart.
Their innocent affection was hidden in glances beneath the camphor trees, in the evening breeze on the rooftop, and in all those moments when they wanted to speak but held back.
Separation and misunderstandings in college gradually drove them apart.
Just as Lin Xi thought the past had become a memory, Su Ye reappeared with belated apologies and clumsy attempts to change. She was still as gentle as ever, but now she met his doubts with greater resolve, answered his tentative advances, accepted his awkward care, and honestly acknowledged how much she cared.
From the awkward sweetness of high school, through college misunderstandings and their reunion, to the everyday bustle of married life, Lin Xi used her own “layered schemes” to make the boy who once charged headlong through life willingly shed his sharp edges and become the most dependable harbor by her side.
A short, sweet slice-of-life romance with nothing much to overthink.
