[Gentle, resilient ray of sunshine vs. insecure, brooding boy]
[Mutual healing + small-town story + devoted couple + slow-burn bittersweet romance + realistic fiction]
Every year, when midsummer arrives, Lin County is drenched in endless rain.
This year, someone else arrived with the rainy season: Lu Ye.
He seemed taciturn, cold, and impossible to approach, always distant with everyone.
Except Xu Jian.
A boy and girl from deeply broken families find healing in one another as they come to know each other.
In a dilapidated temple on a rainy day, they made a promise about their future.
But no one could have imagined that trouble would always arrive before the future.
Fortunately, fate took pity on them and brought back to him the girl who had once warmed him on a cold night.
This time, he was determined to hold tight to her hand and walk into her future.
As it turned out, the monsoon season brought your reply, too.
[Reading guide]
This is a slow-paced work of realistic fiction. Readers who prefer fast pacing and high emotional intensity may want to steer clear.
The emotions are delicate and the author is so awesome. I am in fifth grade and am also writing. The author has inspired me a lot.
