At the opening ceremony of Jinglan University, six people's eyes met for the first time. No one knew then that their names had already been written into their respective fates.
At the ceremony, their gazes quietly crossed in the auditorium. Gu Linyuan, an architecture prodigy, built high walls with his restraint and spent six years avoiding one girl's gaze. An Zhiyi, the girl he had deliberately pushed away, spent six years waiting for someone who would never take even one extra step toward her. Ye Zhiqiu sat in a corner, silently sketching An Zhiyi's profile, every stroke an unspoken confession. In the back row, farther away, Luo Fanxing crookedly drew Ye Zhiqiu's outline in her notebook, then decided to pursue him, passionately and without regard for the consequences. Lin Xi hid behind the backstage curtains, concealing both her secret love for Gu Linyuan and her true self. Chu Yunshang singled Gu Linyuan out in the crowd and marked him as her next prey.
An art exhibition, a social mixer, a fire. In the final moments of her life, Luo Fanxing left behind a letter naming everyone's fate, then became a star, shining forever on those who remained.
Gu Linyuan finally learned to look back, and An Zhiyi finally found someone who understood her. After losing Ye Zhiqiu, he received her thirtieth letter and learned to love the girl who had always chased after him. Lin Xi took off her armor in the spotlight of the art studio, while Chu Yunshang pulled out her thorns and started over with a pen.
It turns out that when Linyuan understands Zhiyi, he finally turns back. Those who have been loved will never fall.
