In the midsummer of that year, the sun was blazing and the cicadas were chirping noisily.
The encounter between the legal scholar Gu Yanzhi and the art student Lin Wanqing seemed like an accident that was destined to happen. The startling glimpse under the cherry blossom tree and the love of pen and ink in the studio together build a dream called "forever".
They thought life would always be like this:
It's the throb of sharing the same old song through shared headphones;
It's the warmth of sharing a bowl of hot wontons on the street late at night;
It is the light that lights up each other's dreams in a small rental house;
They are interlocking with each other, planning a future with a courtyard, a studio, and each other...
Gu Yanzhi used reason to construct their reality, and Lin Wanqing used his brush to depict their romance. Every daily trivial matter is plated with gold, as sweet as the never-ending summer.
However, what fate is best at is writing the cruelest twists and turns in the happiest moments.
When the hospital's diagnosis certificate falls quietly like a snowflake, when the word "forever" suddenly becomes out of reach, can the midsummer that they devote all their efforts to protect still continue?
This is a profound story woven with the sweetest daily life, and it is also a long summer about love, memory and farewell.
When you open this book, please be prepared for an extremely tender, but also extremely heartbreaking journey.
Because their story begins in midsummer and ends in midsummer. And the last page of the unfinished summer book is filled with silent nostalgia and eternal reverberations.
