[Childhood Sweethearts | Two-way Secret Love]
[Vitality and light-chasing girl × patient and long-lasting love bamboo horse]
In Lin Xingyao's youth, Shen Yanzhi was the "backdrop" for each year - the helpless deskmate who was dragged away by her school bag, the conniving neighbor who hid the hand-drawn starry sky map for her to snatch, and the silent young man in the astronomy club who had a fiery look in his eyes when she shouted "This star looks like you".
In Shen Yanzhi's drawing books, Lin Xingyao is the "protagonist" year after year - there is a tiny "Xingyao" hidden in the corner of the draft paper, her laughter is mixed in the astronomical observation records, and even the figure running wildly on a rainy night is just to catch her "Don't leave".
The classmates always laughed, "You two childhood sweethearts are acting like an idol drama." Lin Xingyao waved his hand and said, "Pure brothers." He didn't see the wet folds of "Xingyao" in the painting book when Shen Yanzhi lowered his eyes. Shen Yanzhi also didn't say that those "indulgence" are the clumsiest confessions of a secret admirer.
Until that fever night, Lin Xingyao held his hand and shouted "Don't leave". The moment Shen Yanzhi responded with red eyes, she suddenly understood the starlight hidden in the painting book for ten years.
"Shen Yanzhi, I like you. I have liked you since the first picture you drew of the starry sky. It's not just a bamboo horse."
"I've been waiting for this sentence my entire youth."
When the stars shine over the years of the sweethearts, the secret love hidden in the painting book finally grows into a blatant preference - it turns out that since they first met when they were young, he wanted to write "Qingmei" as "people who go to the mountains and seas together".
