The Wind Through the Pagoda Tree, A Summer Promise

A transfer student arrives at Huaian High School. She's quiet and sensible, and she gets good grades.

Lu Shiyan, the class monitor of Class Seven, is known throughout the school as God Lu. He's handsome, gets excellent grades, and ranks first in the whole school, but nobody knows that he works part-time at a convenience store while his mother is at risk of being laid off.

This isn't a sweeping, dramatic story. It's about a group of teenagers stumbling their way to adulthood among piles of exam papers. Some get into top universities, some take the stage for the first time, some drop out, some repeat a year, some hide their crush for three whole years, and some finally speak their feelings on the rooftop with red-rimmed eyes before turning and running away.

The wind sweeps over the locust branches, and the locust flowers bloom and fall. In the brightest summer of our lives, let us live up to the promise we made back then.
