On the day of class placement for the second grade of high school, Ye Wan Ning passed by the corridor holding her math homework book and took a look into the classroom.
It was that look that locked her into a secret love that lasted for several years. Lin Zhizhou was sitting by the window. The sun was shining from behind him. He tilted his head slightly and turned the pen in his hand in a beautiful arc. He was the first in the grade, and perfect scores in science and comprehensive science were the norm. He was reluctant to win prizes in math competitions, but she was at the bottom of the class. She struggled to pass math. The only thing she could do well in English was just a drop in the bucket in front of him.
She thought there was a Milky Way between them.
But what she didn't know was that when she secretly wrote "All encounters are reunions after a long separation" on the title page of her English notebook, someone opened the notebook and recorded this sentence for three years. When she mustered up the courage to stand in the alley waiting for him in her new dress on the night of her graduation party, someone ran back and forth between the hotel and school several times, looking for her all night long. When she ran away from him on the day of filling out her application because of low self-esteem and timidity, someone typed a line on the phone screen - "Ye Wan Ning, what are you afraid of?"
A secret love that started in high school, two people who didn't dare to speak first, three years of missing and waiting, and a thousand kilometers away. This is a story about timidity and courage, about misses and reunions, about a girl's transformation from inferiority to self-confidence, from retreat to bravery.
It is also a story about a star that finally falls into the eyes of another person.
