In the canyon in his freshman year of high school, Han Xin's spear tip knocked down the last enemy, and also messed up Lu Nian's heart.
She is Lin Zhe's girlfriend, and he is Lin Zhe's brother. The two lines that were supposed to be parallel became entangled and intertwined due to late night battles - he was sharp and could always arrive when she was still alive; she had a tacit understanding of support and had to block a fatal blow for him even if she was resisting a tower.
The ambiguity grew like a vine and finally collapsed under Lin Zhe's questioning. She thought this was the end, but the moment she bumped into Han Ming in the corridor of the next class, she realized that he had been eyeing her for a long time, using games as bait to steal her heart.
But he has a girlfriend.
Liang Wenyin, a name separated by thousands of miles of network cable, is like a sword hanging above her head. Han Ming carried the shackles of this "online love" while releasing vague tenderness to her, while maintaining a tacit understanding with her in the canyon. Lu Nian was addicted to this "specialness", thinking that as long as he waited, he would be the only one for him.
When the news of their breakup after the college entrance examination came, she thought it was redemption, so she risked everything and exchanged her first time for his vague promise. But the tenderness didn't dissipate, and Liang Wenyin's phone rang like a thunder - it turned out that he had never really let go.
We met again in a teahouse many years later, with the sun just shining outside the window.
"It was so silly back then." She took a sip of tea and laughed.
He looked at her, with thousands of emotions surging in his eyes, which finally turned into one sentence: "Well, that's really stupid."
This pull that started as a game finally ended with the calmness of adulthood.
I just occasionally think of that summer, when Han Xin and Sun Bin fought side by side in the canyon, but in reality the boys and girls were running rampant in love.
