She is the moon in the sky, and he is the mud on the ground.
He is Jiang Yubai who is held in high esteem by all the stars. He has a distinguished family background, is unbridled and public, and is always surrounded by warblers and swallows.
She is Shen Zhiyao sitting quietly in the corner, as ordinary as dust, the most inconspicuous existence in the class.
After an unexpected encounter, he leaned over and looked into her eyes, smiling carelessly: "Shen Zhiyao, you are quite interesting."
The moment of tenderness he gave became a dream she carefully treasured.
He said that she was his "181st second", an exception of one more second than the three minutes of heat, and she believed him;
When he was drunk, he hugged her tightly and begged her in a hoarse voice not to leave, and she believed him.
Until two months later, he flicked the ashes of his cigarette and said in a tone as calm as if he was talking about the weather: "I'm tired of it, it's time to get together and part ways."
Many years later, when they reunited at the class reunion, he held her wrist and his eyes turned red: "Who was that man who always went to school with you back then?"
She pulled back her hand and smiled distantly: "You mean my cousin?"
——Jiang Yubai, you are the only unspoken confession in my youth, and you are also the unreachable white moon in my life.
