[The aloof, love-shy good girl × the gentle, quietly devoted top student]
Han Xing has always been the model student in everyone’s eyes: cool, disciplined, and an excellent student. Because of childhood trauma, she is afraid of getting close to men, and beneath her sensitive exterior is a fragile heart.
Xiao Bolan is the dazzling boy everyone at school admires. He noticed her at first sight, watched over her year after year, and was always there to catch her when she stumbled.
No one knows that from their first year of high school all the way through the college entrance exams, his gentle, reserved gaze was always fixed on her.
His quiet, tender protection slowly melts the heart she has kept closed for years. They grow fond of each other and tentatively test the waters, hiding their youthful feelings in the routines of everyday life, too afraid to speak up.
After the college entrance exams, distance is no obstacle. He takes the initiative to visit her small hometown, making the journey back and forth just to see her every day.
Getting into the same university is the finest gift fate could give them.
On a trip together, he bravely confesses his feelings, and at last she opens up about the pain she has buried deep inside.
He asks nothing about her past, feeling only heartache, and promises to protect her for the rest of their lives.
Through the long years of university, he openly dotes on her and never leaves her side.
She pours all the world’s tenderness into her writing, earns recognition for her words, wins a professor’s appreciation, and patiently waits for her efforts to bloom.
They meet in their youth and stay together for the rest of their lives.
From the very beginning of their youth, he found her, battered and bruised, and with a lifetime of devotion, he heals her past. They spend year after year by each other’s side and finally become husband and wife.
As they walk home hand in hand, Xiao Bolan smiles and asks her, “When did you first fall for me?”
Han Xing thinks for a moment, then slowly replies, “I found my way through the confusion of the world and met you at the turn in my heart.”
