"An orange-flavored candy is held in the mouth from the second grade of junior high school to the first grade of college - it has been sweet and sour. Only those who have tasted it will know what it tastes like in the end."
In the second year of junior high school, a seat adjustment by the head teacher tied Xiao Xu, the most inconspicuous person in the class, and Peng Lingyue, who lived the most public life, to the same desk. She sat in the corner of the back door and moved next to him on the pretext of "wanting to study hard", but in fact she just wanted to let him make up math. She is free and easy, good at ambiguous pulls, and her emotions are as unpredictable as the wind; he is forbearing and delicate, hiding everything in his heart, but always silently handing her a tissue when she breaks down. She had an ex-boyfriend that she was obsessed with, and she couldn't let go of it. She cried on the desk late at night until her shoulders were shaking. Without saying a word, he just put the orange-flavored candy she gave him into his pencil case - he never wanted to eat that candy.
From the front and back desks at Luochuan No. 1 Middle School, to the long-distance relationships in different high schools, and then to universities in different cities. Over the past six years, they have been in and out of each other's lives - getting closer, pushing away, making up, having a cold war, getting closer again, and pushing away again. They are obviously from two different worlds, but they have been entangled for six years. Between the separation and resumption, it is the lollipops secretly passed under the desk, the indifference pretended by passing by in the corridor, the typed and deleted messages in front of the mobile phone screen late at night, the stubbornness that still cannot let go even though there is no result.
