[Everyday Campus Life] [Coming of Age] [Authentic Relationships]
The spring his father was buried, sixteen-year-old Huang Yuhan couldn't bring himself to cry.
He became emotionally detached. Thinking his withdrawn nature was his own fault, he chose to run away from it.
He ran from sketching, which he could never get right, and from the stinking dorm of Class 8. He left the art track for the academic track, hoping to go from a good-for-nothing to someone who could blend into the crowd.
But during the gap while he was switching majors, he met Wu Tong in a lounge being used as a temporary classroom.
She was a girl who opened with, "What's it like when your dad dies?" and wrote down his answer in her memo app, word for word.
She seemed a little disrespectful toward his father's death.
But, unexpectedly, that was exactly what Huang Yuhan needed.
If you knew you were a vortex of misfortune, would you let go of the girl you liked?
