Su Nian, a young girl from a small town, was admitted to the top Mingde Middle School in the city by herself because of her bravery.
She is quiet, reserved and taciturn, and seems out of place in the glamorous and lively key high school. She never spoke of her poverty and embarrassment to others, and was used to surviving all embarrassments alone. Only the sea of topics and books were her only source of confidence in her barren youth. She originally thought that her high school years would only be a bland period of studying hard and catching up silently.
Until a transfer exam, she met Jiang Yubai.
He was born to be a dazzling son of heaven, with an outstanding family background and top talent. He was calm and self-possessed, abiding by the rules. He lived under the admiration of everyone, was cold and distant, and never distracted from anyone.
Two completely opposite worlds, which have no intersection at all, meet each other day and night because of being divided into different classes.
When the classroom was empty on Friday, he quietly protected her from her embarrassment by saying "I bought too much"; in the evening when it rained heavily, he held an umbrella to see her off, half wet from the rain, leaving the whole world under the gentle umbrella to her; in trivial daily life, he broke his own sense of proportion and principles again and again, hiding his preference in every casual coincidence.
Su Nian hid the palpitations in his heart neatly into a cowhide notebook, looked at him quietly, and followed him silently, treating him as the first ray of light shining in the dust. He was timid and restrained, never daring to disturb him.
No one knew that Jiang Yubai, who had always been cold and self-disciplined, had already quietly noticed her stubbornness, her intelligence, and her quiet and lonely appearance when she was alone.
The evening breeze blows through the sycamore trees, and the pages of the book turn over the years.
This is a young secret love between a girl in dust and a boy in starlight, silent and restrained, yet sincere and quietly falling in both directions.
