[Modern Romance] [Campus]
Wen Ruan liked the feeling of being remembered and cherished, but she had never thought of giving anyone a clear answer. It was like holding a handful of candy: knowing it was sweet was enough. There was no need to eat it all at once.

As the years passed, a thick scab formed over her heart, hard and cold.

The past she had deliberately tried to forget began to be uncovered, bit by bit...
