At first, Tan Jiu only thought of Pu Mobei as a friend.
After all, he was a character she had created.
Until one night, when all was quiet, his eyes bloodshot, he said, “You think you can just leave me behind like this? Let me tell you, you can’t.”
For the first eighteen years of his life, Pu Mobei had been all alone, dependent on handouts from the rich in the slums of France.
By a twist of fate, he came to Tan Jiu’s world and finally realized that life could be so dazzling.
They studied together and walked side by side through the streets. He thought they were just friends.
Until Tan Jiu cried.
Why did his heart hurt as if it were being torn apart?
When students at Ancheng No. 3 High School talked about Pu Mobei, they said he was like a noble French prince.
That is, until a class reunion years later
Tan Jiu pouted and whined, “Pu Mobei, this is all your fault. What kind of awful shoes did you buy? They’re killing my feet.”
Pu Mobei patiently soothed her. “All right, my fault, my fault. Come on, be good and change into your flats.”
Even that noble prince would bend only for his own rose.
