That autumn, he first met her at the corner of the stairs while she was on duty. At that time, they were strangers in the next class and only one classroom apart.
In the second year of high school, they were in the same class of arts and sciences by accident, and their youthful secret love quietly grew as they followed each other day after day.
In the senior year of high school, he participated in the spring recruitment and left school early, and she prepared for the summer exam. Their life trajectories were thus staggered. From then on, the only thing left was the cautious "Happy New Year" every New Year.

A heart-pounding tug that began in a shared apartment eventually turned this nine-year secret love into a long-awaited reunion in both directions.
