In a small southern town in 1997, 15-year-old Lin Xia first met Chen Mo and Lu Chen on a hot summer day. Chen Mo is a dazzling star in the sky, and her figure on the basketball court and her side by side during the essay competition make her hide her heartbeat in a locked diary; Lu Chen is like the warm sun that accompanies her all the way, handing her father fruit candies when she passes away, and gently urging her to "be brave" at the bonfire party.
After the high school entrance examination, Lin Xia gave up high school due to family pressure and replaced her father's place as a health worker in an oil company, trapped in the smell of medicine and the sound of abacus in the glass pharmacy; Chen Mo was admitted to Yuying Middle School, and the relationship between the two gradually drifted apart; Lu Chen went to study abroad, but always exchanged letters with Lin Xia. The letters were full of encouragement and concern, and he also sent a Pikachu doll, saying, "We want to grow together like Xiaozhi and Pikachu." After working, Lin Xia struggled in reality. The confusion during self-study and the estrangement between colleagues were all comforted by Lu Chen's letters, and she gradually relied on the warmth of this "starlight".
Later, Lin Xia entered the Petroleum Health School. Although she was disappointed with the campus environment, she slowly found her direction in anatomy classes and class meetings, and also met Feng Yanjia, the "little tail" who stuck to her. During this period, Chen Mo once sent a Christmas card with sparse handwriting, mentioning that the forget-me-nots she sent still had a fragrance, but the words were still unclear, which made her feel uneasy. Lu Chen's letters were always on time, and the lines were full of longing for the future and concern for her. He would even tell his friends that "Lin Xia is very special." Although Lin Xia quietly recognized Lu Chen, she also hesitated because of the distance between the two in the future (Lu Chen aimed at Southwest University of Political Science and Law, and she needed to complete her studies in health school first).
As she grows up, Lin Xia leaves the small town and meets a boyfriend in a new environment who can give her real stability and warmth. The solid life brought by the other party moved Lin Xia, who was used to wandering and waiting. In contrast, although Lu Chen's companionship is sincere, it is separated by distance and uncertainty about the future. In the end, Lin Xia chose to bid farewell to Lu Chen, run towards the stability within reach, marry her new boyfriend, and slowly integrate into a life like fireworks. The youthful thoughts about the "sun, moon and stars" were also hidden in the depths of time, waiting for the restart in middle age...
