In midsummer, cicadas chirp noisily. Transfer student Suning Ning steps into a new class and is caught off guard by a youthful encounter. She met Xu Shuyan, a top student recognized throughout the school as gentle and cool. The young man has elegant eyebrows, a clean temperament, and is gentle and self-possessed in his treatment of others. Just a shallow smile smoothed away the awkwardness she felt when she first arrived.
But Suning Ning never knew that this extremely gentle Xu Shuyan,
It was the little boy who was trapped in the ruins with her in the fire many years ago and saved each other. A dusty childhood bond, hidden in an old time that no one knows about.
The peaceful campus life was suddenly disrupted. Jiang, a classmate, became unruly, surly and paranoid. He is her unrelated brother. He is tit-for-tat with her every day, making things difficult for her at every turn, and he never stops being cold and mean. But when others bully her, she will stand up regardless of anything and block out all malice.
The gentle and restrained fateful bamboo horse,
The paranoid and awkward taboo brother,
The three of them were trapped in the whirlpool called youth, pulling, testing, and concealing.
The remaining warmth of the old fire has not dissipated, and young worries arise secretly.
When the dusty past is uncovered layer by layer, the heartbeat that has been buried for many years comes out.
Going round and round, year after year,
Suning Ning will eventually rush to her own salvation.
