An accidental ice cream mishap set off the most romantic summer Wuhan had ever seen.
A pandemic that swept the globe brought their fiery young love to an abrupt end.
Years later, Shen Qingshu and Huang Zihongfan awkwardly reunited at a dinner hosted by her brother.
He was still the brightest light in any crowd, but all he could do was stare at her, clumsily, again and again.
She tried to keep her composure, but crumbled at the long-awaited sound of him calling her “A Shu.”
He asked, “Can we go back to how things were?”
She said, “I'll think about it.”
From lemon candies by the bonfire, to a cross-country dash to the airport, to a performance of “Longing for You” at a concert, sung for one person alone...
This time, they stopped clinging to the past and learned how to begin again.
“It's not about putting a broken mirror back together. We've both grown up, and now we're strong enough to gather the pieces and forge a better future.”
I'll try to keep the characters in character, though they may occasionally feel off. There may be plenty of everyday moments. Please don't conflate the characters with the real people. Everyone has their own favorite qualities; I'm just writing about the ones I like.
There will definitely be some original additions!!!
