[School Life + Childhood Sweethearts + Secret Crush + The Second Male Lead Takes the Lead]
Wen Guining has liked her taciturn deskmate for a very, very long time.
She always thinks that if she works a little harder and becomes a little better, perhaps Yun Yuwen will finally notice her.
Yun Yuwen likes her, or perhaps he's unwilling to say so, or maybe he doesn't know how.
But unbeknownst to Wen Guining, Pei Nianwen, her other childhood sweetheart, has also loved her for a long time.
He remembers all her likes and dislikes and indulges every little temper tantrum.
Wen Guining realizes that when she's unhappy, the first person she thinks of is her big brother, Pei Nianwen. And whenever she needs him, he's the first to come to her side.
Only Pei Nianwen knows about the dark side she keeps hidden from everyone, and he accepts it and feels for her.
By Pei Nianwen's side, she doesn't need to pretend. She can be completely herself.
Everyone knows that when no one can reach Wen Guining, Pei Nianwen is the only one who knows where she is.
She gradually realizes that someone really can make you stand on tiptoe no longer. He'll bend down for you himself.
Wen Guining gives up on the Yun Yuwen she's liked for so long and, for the first time, turns to look at Pei Nianwen.
“You've taken ninety-nine steps toward me. Let me take the last one toward you.”
Pei Nianwen never imagined that the little sun he'd kept hidden in his heart would finally see him one day, or that his perseverance would finally be brought into the light.
