When Su Chen broke into University A with eight years of memories, he never thought that he would be reunited so unexpectedly.
The little girl who once chased him and called "Brother Achen" and smiled with missing front teeth became the unattainable and cold school beauty Lin Qingruo in the eyes of everyone. Wearing a white shirt, she stood in front of the welcome center, holding a pen on her fingertips. The scar left by picking wild dates on the tiger's mouth was hidden in the shadows. She looked at him like any other new student.
He knew that she had forgotten - the old locust tree in Xingfu Lane, the broken rabbit doll, and the unspoken goodbye in the heavy snow when she was ten years old. Little did he know that in the past eight years, he had searched every corner of the city just to find her.
She "accidentally" spilled water on her during military training, "happened" to sit across from her while giving a lecture in the library, and "casually" mentioned the old stories of Xingfu Lane while holding an umbrella on a rainy day... Su Chen approached step by step, as if she was carefully holding the sunshine, trying to melt the ice around her little by little.
But he didn't say that those seemingly accidental encounters were intentional; she didn't know that the faded rabbit buckle that had been hanging on her canvas bag for ten years was a gift bought by a boy who saved up half a month's pocket money.
When the aloof senior meets the sunny junior who is always on the move, when the forgotten childhood encounters a long-planned reunion——
"Lin Qingruo," one afternoon, Su Chen blocked the entrance to the stairs, with broken light in his eyes, "do you really not remember me at all?"
She looked at the warmth in his pear, and suddenly remembered that vague summer long ago, when a boy smiled and said, "Don't be afraid, I will find you."
This is a two-way journey spanning eight years, starting from forgetfulness and continuing with heartbeat.
