Wu Xunzhen×Wang Ye
second person of text
The day I first arrived in Beijing, the wind carried a dry and cold smell that I had never smelled before.
The whole city was as strange as an unopened book. I didn't know which page I would be turned to.
Then I met you.
Later we became tablemates. From "Hello" to "Lao Wang", from summer mints to winter scarves, from first meeting to long time no see.
It took me the entire high school to confirm my intuition at that moment - in the years to come, whenever I think back to the morning when I first saw you, I am still extremely grateful that I pushed open the classroom door that day.
You are the first gift I received in a strange city, and you are also the hometown that I visit every time I look back in the long years.
