[School Life] [Two Male Leads] [Ensemble Cast] [Love Grows Over Time] The aloof, depressed, frequently absent Shan Min x the laid-back troublemaker Ouyang Cuiyou
In their second year of high school, a chance climb over the school wall sent the troublemaker Ouyang Cuiyou crashing into Shan Min's quiet world.
Once a legend at Changxiang No. 4 High School, Shan Min didn't come from a wealthy family. His household depended entirely on the traditional Chinese medicine clinic his mother ran. Under his family's crushing expectations, he developed severe depression. The former top student became a withdrawn boy who was constantly missing school, with scars on his wrist concealing a struggle no one knew about.
They collided by accident on the way to a follow-up appointment. Shan Min only remembered the troublemaker apologizing over and over, then ducking into an alley. After catching sight of Shan Min's scarred wrist, the boy shoved a hundred-yuan bill at him and fled in a panic, with the dean chasing after him.
He thought they'd just been strangers who happened to cross paths, but fate insisted on entangling them. When Shan Min was transferred from the advanced class to the chaotic Class Six, Grade Eleven, he found himself seated beside Ouyang Cuiyou, the very boy who had "hit and run." Their story truly began then. One was gloomy and taciturn, always on the verge of taking leave; the other seemed carefree but hid a tender heart. Their once-parallel lives converged at last.
That year, the cool autumn breeze no longer carried the wounds of the past. Instead, it brought them redemption and the flutter of new love. From an awkward chance collision to the quiet understanding of sharing a desk
I don't mind waiting for you, even when you miss school, because you alone are worth more than a thousand words. With you here, the reasons for taking leave don't matter
Shares a setting with the neighboring novels Beyond the Textbook Traces and Beyond the Standard Answer. This story belongs to the senior student.
