Snowfall Delay Notice

[Mutual crush + two top students + healing + reunion after a long separation]

[Composed beauty and top student in photography × bright, sunny physics prodigy]

The first time Jiang Yuqiu saw Guan Yidong was in their first-year physics class. He wasn’t even in their class, but he came in and took a seat.

While everyone else admired him, Jiang Yuqiu quietly memorized his approach to solving the problem.

When she was about to attend the award ceremony for a photography exhibition and was nervous about giving a speech, he said:

“Your photographs deserve to be seen by more people.”

“Let more people feel the ‘glimmer’ in your images.”

Though Guan Yidong had secured early admission to university through academic competitions, he still stayed by her side through their final year of high school.

At the observatory in the early hours of the morning, he confessed his feelings. She turned him down.

“We don’t have to bind each other as lovers. Let me keep you company as a friend, okay?”

“You go chase your light. I’ll be here, or... somewhere you can see me.”

“When you come back, when you feel ready and the time is right, then we can talk about us. I’ll wait for you.”

Five years later, Jiang Yuqiu saw Guan Yidong again at a cafe beside the River Thames.

Through her camera’s viewfinder, his bright, radiant smile, unchanged after all this time, dazzled her.

Guan Yidong never expected to run into Jiang Yuqiu here either. For a moment, he froze when their eyes met.

“Long time no see, my creditor.”

“Long time no see... my debtor.”

This is a silent flutter of hearts that began on campus, a wordless journey across eight thousand kilometers, and a long voyage through reason and courage, loss and love, self-redemption and mutual healing.
