[Youth] [School Life] [Devoted Love] [Both Pure] [Happy Ending]
When Jiang Li first arrived in Pingxi Town, she stood at the mouth of an alley, watching Jiang Xu fight someone at the far end through the misty drizzle.
The town stood by the water, with gray-tiled houses and deep, narrow lanes. It was filled with violence and dampness. This was their first meeting.
Noticing someone watching him, Jiang Xu lazily raised his eyes and asked, "Want to come closer for a better look?"
Jiang Li did as he said.
But for some reason, the boy's expression seemed to turn even colder...
Jiang Xu's elders asked him to look after Jiang Li, who had just arrived.
He bent down close to her ear. "I hope I'm not so lucky."
Jiang Li: "..."
Little did she know that the future would make him eat his words.
Jiang Xu dropped to one knee. "I hope I am so lucky."
Whether at school or outside it, Jiang Xu was cool and distant. Again and again, he told Jiang Li to stay away from him, drawing an invisible line between them.
Later, people began to notice how openly he treated her differently. His gaze followed Jiang Li everywhere, and he always looked at her with indulgent affection.
Jiang Li: Jiang Li sounds like "leaving." I'm destined to wander all my life, never settling down or staying with anyone.
Jiang Xu: Jiang Li doesn't mean "leaving." Jiang Li is Jiang Xu's hope and his whole world.
"There are conditions for being my boyfriend."
"I'm listening."
"Jiang Xu."
"I'm here."
Jiang Li rose on tiptoe and kissed the edge of Jiang Xu's lips, her bright eyes brimming with a smile.
"The condition is that you have to be the Jiang Xu I want, the Jiang Xu I met in Pingxi Town. No one else will do."
[Love makes dead wood bloom again. Love makes barren land burst into brilliant flowers. Love is surging and powerful; love makes us better together.]
