[Lonely, withdrawn boy × gentle, healing girl]
[Healing from family trauma | Mutual pining at school | Slow-burn, heartfelt romance | From youth to the rest of their lives]
Xu Sheng's world had never known warmth.
Left behind as a child and raised by his grandmother, he had a father who drank heavily year-round and a mother who worked far away for years. With family affection absent, his home held nothing but coldness. When his mother hurried home to take charge of things in his third year of middle school, the chasm between them had already taken root. He was left with nothing but distance and silence toward his family and parents.
He was used to being alone, to keeping his heart shut tight, to expecting nothing, relying on no one, and longing for no warmth. Carrying the shadows of his family behind him, he silently stepped into Haicheng High School.
In the midst of all that coldness, he met you, and from then on, the world grew gentle.
He thought he had found a ray of light, never realizing it wasn't his light.
Later, after the class assignments changed, she drew closer to her own light.
What will become of Xu Sheng...?
Even behind the light, there is a way home.
