[One Female Lead + Childhood Sweethearts + No Transmigration or System + Unexpected Girlfriend + Feel-Good Story]
At Xinglan University's New Year's gala awards ceremony, Lin Yuyan has just accepted the "Campus Belle Gold Award" trophy. Beside her, Liu Nianbai is about to take her hand when a figure suddenly rushes onto the stage.
Clutching a piece of orange candy, Shen Zhiyu steps between them and speaks into the microphone in a low voice: "Sorry to interrupt. Could I borrow your campus belle for a few minutes to help me recognize someone?"
The crowd erupts in an uproar, and Liu Nianbai's face turns livid.
"You can't just cause a scene whenever you want! Have some respect for the occasion!"
Shen Zhiyu ignores him completely. He turns, grips Lin Yuyan's chin, and makes her look at him. The orange candy in his fingertips brushes her lips.
"Senior Lin, ten years ago you used to snuggle in my arms and whimper for cuddles. When I got drunk, you washed my face and made me porridge. You even promised you'd save the sweetest candy for me. Now I'm back, and you've forgotten me, but you've already made room for someone else?"
After falling behind in his studies and missing the college entrance exam, Shen Zhiyu follows the traces in his memories, gets into Xinglan University, and becomes Lin Yuyan's junior. When they meet again, she's the aloof campus belle admired by everyone, with someone else already at her side. Her eyes hold nothing but complete unfamiliarity when she looks at him.
Ninety-nine days spent getting closer, ninety-nine attempts to test the waters. Carrying the promise they made as children, he tries to awaken her dormant memories, but must contend with her forgetfulness, other people's interference, and the misunderstandings of the past.
It turns out some bonds remain tucked away in the subconscious even when every memory is erased. And some promises sealed with a pinky swear will find a chance to be renewed, even across the years.
