Married first, love later; reunited after years apart; a slow-burn romance; one-on-one
A gentle yet resilient Chinese teacher × a reserved, devoted physics professor
Song Jinhuai was the husband Lin Zhi's mother had found for her.
Lin Zhi knew that Song Jinhuai had a childhood sweetheart in his heart, a woman he loved but could never have, who had been living abroad for years.
Song Jinhuai knew just as well that Lin Zhi had an ex-boyfriend she couldn't forget.
Without needing to say a word, they signed their household rules: share a life together, never cross the line, and treat each other with polite respect.
Just as Lin Zhi thought they would go on living like that, Song Jinhuai became the lead on Changqing Elementary School's science outreach project and specifically asked Lin Zhi to assist him.
Later, his childhood sweetheart returned to China in grand style, while her childhood friend showed up again, rain-soaked.
Already in love, Lin Zhi took the initiative to ask for a divorce and set him free.
But Professor Song, who had always been cool and self-possessed, pressed Lin Zhi against the entryway wall, the corners of his eyes red and his voice husky. "Teacher Lin, physics says that an isolated System always tends toward increasing entropy. But after meeting you, all I want for the rest of my life is to remain constant in my devotion to you alone."
Marriage was never a fairy tale about there being only one person for you. It was two people in one home, turning ordinary days into poetry through a long, patient endeavor.
