Someone bailed on Lin Zhi's art exhibition, leaving her alone by the roadside, crouched over her paintings as she moved them. Shen Du happened to pass by. He watched for three seconds, then went over to help.
He didn't say more than ten words the whole time.
Later, she became an illustrator at his studio. Neither of them was much good at talking. He picked the cilantro out of her bowl; she left an extra breakfast on his desk. When the air conditioner broke, they opened the windows. When they couldn't sleep, they worked late together.
He had been betrayed and no longer trusted anyone. She was used to being let down and believed she didn't deserve love.
But spending time with him made working late feel a little less exhausting. And when she ate alone, she began to feel that something was missing.
Mutual healing is when two people who don't know how to love slowly learn to keep each other in their hearts.
There was nothing dramatic about it. He simply started carrying an extra piece of candy in his pocket, while her sketchbook filled with drawings of the same person's back.
Two ordinary people meet in the city. After the rain stopped, the mint leaves stayed green, and they stayed together.
