| Two top students · Rekindled love · Mutual healing |
| The top student who occasionally has to read out a self-criticism × the physics genius who is always there to comfort him |
"Wei Zhinian, I want to light up your world, even if you think you don't need the light."
"Xuan Che, once I get hold of you, I won't let go."
At the opening ceremony, Wei Zhinian, the school's top student, has just finished reading a self-criticism for fighting when the dean drags him back onstage to share his study tips. From nineteenth place in the audience, Xuan Che looks up at him and remembers a wedding from summer vacation: the wedding banquet they'd once sneaked away from, now a foreshadowing of fate.
He's a perennial name on the honors board, as well as an occasional regular at self-criticism sessions. The other is a dark horse in physics competitions, a boy quietly suffering from depression. When they become deskmates and roommates, Wei Zhinian discovers that Xuan Che smiles like a little sun, yet sometimes hides in the stairwell, lost in thought after taking a call from his mother.
"If it hurts, tell me."
"It doesn't hurt when you're here."
Their sweet relationship is torn apart by reality: eight years without contact. When Xuan Che wins the national gold medal, Wei Zhinian is in an unfamiliar city, doubled over with stomach pain as he tries to choke down a steamed bun. He secretly returns to Zhejiang University to watch Xuan Che receive his award, but doesn't dare show himself, not until the doors open at their alma mater's anniversary celebration and their eyes meet.
"Cheche, I'm back."
"Niannian, don't leave again this time."

This book is very touching. It is about Wei Zhinian's departure and one person's hard work. I think the contrast is too obvious. The eight years and one month that Wei Zhinian left were painful, ranging from severe acute gastroenteritis to stomach bleeding. But it's not just him, Xuanche is also fighting depression. But what makes me heartbroken the most is that Wei Zhinian left the secret alone, with no one around to accompany him. When he fell ill, it was the store manager and clerk who took him to the hospital, while Xuan Che had a bunch of friends around him to help him get out. This comparison makes me heartbroken the most 😢😢 (I don't mean to belittle the characters or plot, and I don't mean to start a fight. It's just heartbreaking)
They are rising stars. Although they each have their own sorrows, they heal each other. The 8-year disconnection tortured each other, their self-righteous protection, and the companionship and respect between friends. They are each other's little stars. To be honest, I really feel sad for Wei Zhinian, his family, and his unbearability. He walked alone through the tortured, painful, and embarrassing road. When I saw the scars on his wrists, I never thought that this strong and proud young man wanted to leave at a loss. He was unfortunate, but also lucky. Although it was a pity that he did not shine in the physics department, they were good. Wei Zhinian, this young man who is used to covering up his pain with indifference, this unparalleled young man is so low-key that he has no hobbies of his own, and even covers up his softness. Xuanche, this happy little sun, is suffering from depression. He is constantly covering up his wounds and waiting for his lover, his precious friend, to accompany him. Their reunion after a long separation makes me feel that I don't want him to forgive so quickly, but he is really pitiful. Maybe he really only has this straw left. Xuanche, the little star, should shine more light on Wei Zhinian, the little bitter gourd. Because he was the only one left!
The mutual redemption when we were young is a glimmer of light, enough to remember each other for a long time. Two teenagers, one is number one in grade, one is a rising star in physics, one has a disgusting father, and one has a vicious mother. The two little bitter gourds met at a wedding banquet. Later, they were in the same class and dormitory. At the sports meeting, Cheche met Niannian. I think something is different from this moment on. In fact, I didn't feel it before, but at this moment, their relationship has just begun. The most regrettable thing is that when Cheche went to participate in the competition, she agreed to Niannian. She gave him a kiss, but she didn't give it to him in the end because Nian Nian's disgusting father and Che Che's vicious mother put pressure on the school and wanted to destroy Che Che, but Nian Nian was not allowed, so he took on everything. When Che Che finished the competition and wanted to find Nian Nian to fulfill that promise, Nian Nian was already gone. He chose to use the most extreme way to protect the one he loved. The eight years of disconnection were a blank space for each other. The two little bitter gourds did not live a good life. One suffered from depression to the point of collapse, and the other was suffering from stomach problems. I couldn't do it anymore. I really felt that they were both suffering too much. In fact, I felt that when Cheche was so excited when she saw the scars on her wrists every year, I knew it was still possible. The year when every year she committed suicide and wanted to die, it was also Cheche's condition. In the most serious year, I couldn't do it anymore and I cried to death. Later, the two of them never let go of each other, and they couldn't let go. They didn't say breakup when they said they were leaving, so let's continue now. Oh my God, the author, you are so delicate and tender. Youth may have many regrets, but the reunion is only for a better continuation. I hope Cheche and Niannian will always be happy in their world. The above is my humble opinion
It was so heart-wrenching to watch, I couldn't control my tears, and I was so upset that I couldn't calm down. Two poor babies, only each other is the medicine for the other. The author is so good at writing 👍 I am very happy with these two characters. I hope lovers will eventually get married 👍
It feels very new, the writing is very good, and the story development is very interesting. Nian Nian and Che Che really made me cry to death.
Originally, not many people read this book, and I thought it would not be very good, so I clicked on it. Unexpectedly, it attracted me so much. The relationship between the two of them, the hardships they have gone through, and the delicate writing style are really great. Come on, it is really great.
I'm not going to be able to do it anymore. It's so bad later that I can't control my tears 😢 Fortunately, we will meet again later 🥺
The author's writing is delicate and vivid, the characters are vividly drawn, and the storyline is rich and true. The youthful emotions are fascinating!
Very novel and very beautiful
After all, the ending is good!! Wish you 99!!!
