[Tough and nostalgic for childhood sweethearts and ginger pomelo × the calm and protective Bamboo Horse Leaf Ci]
From wearing crotchless pants to grab mung bean popsicles, to wearing suits and sitting side by side in the office building - Jiang You and Ye Ci's twenty years are the height lines carved on the walls of the old alley, the silhouettes of young people hidden in the drawings, and the silent protection in workplace confrontations.
She is the rising designer of Starlight Design, and he is the immediate boss who came from the air. Three years of alienation failed to dilute the tacit understanding in the bones, and the strict rules of the office could not stop the secret feelings: the loopholes in the plan quietly revised during overtime, the frank hug on the terrace after the celebration banquet, and the tumbling shrimp paste in the hot pot of the old house, all told another possibility of childhood sweethearts.
When rumors spread in the workplace, he chose to transfer to the branch to prove her innocence; when life suddenly encountered storms, she understood the weight of "backing" in his hurried figure. From the orange candy hidden in the suit pocket when they fell in love secretly, to the grapefruit ring in the old alley when they proposed, they used twenty years to prove that the best love is not a grand confession, but the understanding hidden in the details——
"I know that you like to turn your pen when you are drawing, I know that you secretly change the white wine to water when socializing, and I know all of your bravery and softness."
"From the age of eight to eighty, I want to be the person who is always present in your story."
This is a story about childhood sweethearts running in both directions in the workplace and in life, with the fireworks of the old alley, the confrontation and growth in the workplace, and the "I do" that has been hidden for twenty years in the long stream of water.
