That midsummer, my whole world was filled with him. But in his world, I was just a vague name.
At the age of sixteen, Lin Wan's youth was silent. Her biggest secret is the bright young man in the front row - Gu Xizhou. Her love was a grand secret love that no one knew about: it was the densely packed names in the diary, it was countless pretended casual brushes, it was running with all her strength to be with him. She thought that this was just her own chaos.
She didn't know that there were also cracks in Gu Xizhou's world. The generous family background is a shackles, and the early death of his mother is a hidden pain. He had already noticed the quiet girl behind him. Her eyes were the only light in his depressed life. However, the young man's pride and the heavy burden on his shoulders prevented him from speaking easily.
So, in the most beautiful years, they became the most familiar strangers. Every time the eyes meet, they are misunderstood; every time the heart beats, they are buried in silence. A well-planned misunderstanding, an admission notice that separated the north from the south, buried that late confession forever in the youth that ended.
When they reunited after many years, the truth was belatedly revealed. When Gu Xizhou finally said "I used to like you too", when Lin Wan finally understood all his hesitant words back then. However, what stands between them is no longer the corridor of the classroom, but a whole life that cannot be repeated.
It turns out that some love blooms in the midsummer when no one knows it, and also withers in the late autumn when no one sees it. We spend our entire youth understanding each other, but spend the rest of our lives learning how to forget.
