"Borrowing the Moonlight" is an urban emotional novel about loneliness and companionship.
Mu Xue, an orphan girl, was admitted to Haishi University from a remote mountainous area. She was poor and taciturn, like a forgotten shadow. Classmate Chu Xin was attracted by her stubborn quietness and took the initiative to get close to her, becoming her only friend. Chu Xin's brother Xiao Yang happens to be Mu Xue's literary history teacher.
Once in class, Mu Xue said: "Lonely, but don't panic." This sentence was like a stone dropped into Xiao Yang's heart. From then on, this silent and tenacious girl lived in his memory.
Mu Xue is used to carrying everything by herself. Xiao Yang's love was silent and long-lasting - he stayed by her hospital bed late at night, used Chu Xin's hand to deliver medicine to her, and calmly arranged everything for her, but never asked any questions. He only did one thing: wait for her.
She encountered dangerous situations again and again, and used her astonishing calmness and courage to save the day. And he always stood behind her, without interrupting or urging her. He only said softly when she turned back: "I'm here."
Many years later, Mu Xue returned from overseas studies and finally stood side by side with Xiao Yang. She learned to accept love and finally admitted, "I need you too."
This is the story of a girl who went from "living alone to a thousand troops" to "allowing herself to be picked up". There is no excitement, there is only one person who spends his entire youth waiting for the other person to look back. The moon is always there, but some people look up for a long time.
