In Yucheng Middle School, the white water of the sophomore students is so ordinary that it is almost transparent. They are the background for teachers who cannot remember their names. However, whenever night falls, he will transform into the mysterious genius "Baishu Ming" who shines brightly on the track and field. Running was the only way for him to forget the pain of being abandoned by his mother when he was six years old.
At the same time, the cold and aloof school beauty Su Ling also sealed herself in invisible armor. No one knows about her past of being adopted, as well as the obsession she has buried in her heart about her "brother" and a pink bracelet.
During an accidental encounter on the field, Su Ling recognized the familiar color on Baishui's wrist. A whisper of "Let's run together" is like a key, suddenly opening the dusty memory gate. When the figures of ordinary Bai Shui and genius Bai Shuming gradually overlap, and when the Bingshan school beauty's eyes stop for someone for the first time, what they must face together is the helplessness of their parents, the rift in the family, and the gray childhood that no one wants to mention.
This is a story about disguise and truth, trauma and healing, farewell and reunion. Can they work together to escape the shadows of the past and usher in the light that belongs to each other?
Purpose: This book tells the story of a boy and girl who each put on a mask due to childhood trauma, test each other and face the past together after reunion. It deeply explores how to reconcile with the broken self and say goodbye to the heavy past. It aims to tell readers: Real strength is not to forget the pain, but to still choose to run towards the light despite the scars, and to be each other's only light in the darkness.
