In his previous life, Lin Cheng retired due to injury and amounted to nothing.
Reborn, he wanted to run properly just once.
When he returned to the track and field team, he met Xia Yunxi.
She was a hurdling prodigy, quiet and hardworking, cold on the outside but warm within.
He was a reborn young man, warm and healing, who only wanted to enjoy the process.
There were no grand, earth-shaking moments, only the heart-fluttering instants of their everyday lives.
Passing over a bottle of water, tying a shoelace, walking home side by side beneath the sunset.
Three years later, he was 0.1 seconds short of qualifying as an elite athlete.
She held his hand. "It's okay if we're one step short. We'll keep running."
The end of the track wasn't a finish line, but the companionship they shared.
This is a story about "taking it slow." Being reborn wasn't about defying fate, but about savoring every moment of running, and standing with the one he loved at the end of the track to watch the most beautiful sunset.
I'll give it 5 stars no matter what. The pen shines like light, paying tribute to the years and our original aspirations. Writing this book was more like a dialogue with myself, weaving the thoughts hidden in my heart, the warmth and growth I had experienced into the words.
