[Mutual pining + pure love + both leads are each other's first and only + love at first sight + youth and campus]
A lonely, reserved genius boy x a resilient girl carrying the weight of life's burdens
Summer at Shengshi always seems long enough for secrets to take root.
Zhou Zhixu remembers seeing Yu Wan again. She stood where sunlight met shadow, like a poem left unfinished.
Ten years ago, at the children's hospital in Licheng,
he said, "When you get better, we'll go look at the stars together."
But after that, he vanished from her world without a trace.
Ten years later, by the sea in Linjiang,
"Yu Wan, I like you."
"I know."
When cheers from the basketball court collide with the library's closing bell,
when the aroma of braised pork ribs mingles with the bitterness of antidepressants,
neither of them knows where this silent conversation
will finally lead, or in which season it will end...
"Yu Wan, didn't you say I was cut out for the army, and that I should serve my country one day?"
"Why did you break your promise...?"
Love in one's school years is fierce and intense. Everyone has their own secrets, their own joys and sorrows.
Not every secret crush gets to see the light of day, and not every love is returned.
"May the one in my heart enjoy peace, happiness, and good fortune for the rest of their life..."
"May Wan Wan be safe and happy, year after year."
