Hidden in the chirping of cicadas in the senior year of high school was Lin Yichuan's unspoken confession to Song Zhixia, and also the secret love that Xu Shiyu didn't dare to express openly. The three of them agreed to go to the south to see the sea together, but in the shadow of the countdown to the college entrance examination, Lin Yichuan failed to survive the pressure of his mother and fell from the rooftop into eternal regret.
Song Zhixia's world collapsed, and her imagination became the driftwood she clung to. Xu Shiyu picked up the broken clues and imitated Lin Yichuan's handwriting and wrote letters for three years, using lies to build a protective shell for her. Until one day in college, there was a flaw in the handwriting in the essay book, which exposed this long self-deception.
The white chrysanthemums in front of the tomb fell and bloomed again. Song Zhixia finally said goodbye to the past, but also sealed the door of her heart. Xu Shiyu's love was never revealed, it just turned into a silent watch in daily life. That promise about the sea has finally become a sigh that no one can fulfill in time.
Purpose: Focusing on the emotional bonds and tragedies of three people, it not only criticizes the destruction of individuals by the original family, but also shows the complexity of post-traumatic redemption. It uses unfulfilled promises and heart-sealing watch to write the eternal proposition of love and regret.
