This is a healing novel with youth love as the core. It tells the story of the reunion and reconciliation of Ning Xishu and Gu Zheqing across five years.
In high school, due to the opposition of Gu Zheqing's father, the two were forced to break up on the grounds that they were "tired", burying their love and grievances deep in their hearts. Five years later, in the university library, Ning Xishu unexpectedly reunited with Gu Zheqing while looking for a picture album of Monet's "Water Lilies" that carried high school memories.
After that, Gu Zheqing re-entered Ning Xishu's life in a gentle way: remembering her habit of drinking American food, serving her shrimp and egg porridge late at night, blocking discussions for her in the campus forum, traveling thousands of miles to advance her medical expenses and accompanying her throughout the entire process when her grandmother suffered a heart attack.
In the end, Gu Zheqing confessed to Ning Xishu the truth about their breakup - to protect her dreams and family from being threatened by her father. The misunderstanding was resolved and the two came back together. On the occasion of graduation, Gu Zheqing proposed under the camphor tree where they often stayed in high school. With a ring engraved with "Summer in Huaibei", he promised to accompany him from the summer of youth to the rest of his life, so that the love that started in high school would find a happy ending.
