A youthful story about scars and proximity.
Lin Xun's sixteenth year was as long as the rainy season in the south, humid, hazy, and lackluster. Until the transfer student Shen Yi appeared - with excellent grades, outstanding appearance, and perfection like an illusion. However, Lin Xun inadvertently glimpsed the cracks under his perfect appearance: the white medicine bottles in the empty classroom, the absent-minded gaze at the old umbrella on a rainy day, and the old wounds on his wrists carefully covered by braided ropes.
A shelter in a heavy rain brought two lonely souls together. Shen Yi is burdened with the pain of his mother's early death and the emotional abyss that requires medication to maintain, while Lin Xun uses her quiet company to get closer to the high wall he built. From the silent gaze in the library to the damp memory of the gardenia bushes, from the heavy pressure of competition to the embarrassing secret guarding of menstrual periods, they learn how to expose vulnerability and how to give warmth in the mud and glimmer of youth.
This is not only about the throbbing of secret love, but also the journey of two teenagers identifying and supporting each other in their respective predicaments. When the noise of victory dissipated, revealing the fresh scars inside, Lin Xun chose to hold the cold hand tightly. The rainy season will eventually pass, and some emotions that take root in the humidity are quietly blooming with the power to resist all gloom.
