   This is a campus romance novel with a one-sided love story, but it's not just about unrequited love. Set in a southern county high school in the 1990s, the story follows a young man trapped by inferiority and his circumstances, forcing him to keep his love hidden. It also depicts the pressure of college entrance exams and the difficult choices at life's crossroads. There's no dramatic, tragic love story, only the unavoidable missed opportunities of ordinary youth, leaving the reader with a sense of melancholy.
