The summer breeze in the old alleys of Nancheng hides the most vivid youthful moments of Lin Wei Xi and Jiang Ye - she was a ballet girl standing on tiptoes chasing the light, her skirt sweeping across the bluestone; he was a young man chasing dreams with fists in his hands, sweat soaked through the leather. The two made an agreement while stepping on the fragrance of gardenia flowers: he would win the world championship and buy her diamond-encrusted dance shoes; she would stand on the biggest stage and dance exclusively for him.
The accident happened unexpectedly, and Jiangye's family fell into decline. He was separated in a state of embarrassment, and no further news was heard from him. He hid in an underground boxing gym to make a living, but he always hid in the last row of the auditorium when she performed, watching her white clothes spin like a swan; she became a top dancer, shining brightly on the stage, but there was always an empty space in her heart, pretending to be the young man who failed to fulfill his promise.
We met again five years later, he ran away and she chased. The smell of instant noodles in the rental house was mixed with disinfectant, and she held his calloused hand and said, "I just want you back." He moved into her apartment and carved her health into her daily routine - warm milk, ointments to reduce swelling, and reminders to rest that were accurate to the second, making her completely immersed in the minute care.
Their love for each other was never ambiguous. They confessed their love under the same starry sky, allowing the hem of the skirt and the gloves to embrace each other again. From then on, every time she took the stage, he would always be in the first row holding a white rose; every time he punched, she would always shout the loudest "come on" from the audience. From childhood sweethearts in an old alley to a family of four in the fireworks, they spent half their lives proving that the best love is when you guard the stage light for me, and I guard the boxing ring for you, so that the young promise can grow into a lifetime of perfection.
