Core Summary
22-year-old Chen Lu fled to the mountains to teach in order to heal his emotional wounds, and met 17-year-old Xiao Qi.
He is a poor student whose father died young and his mother remarried. She is a support teacher with urban scars.
It should have stopped between teachers and students, but on a rainy night, under the starry sky, between life and death, it crossed the line step by step.
He said, "When I grow up." She said, "We can't."
Until the flood washed away the mountain road and all rational defense lines——
[Reading warning]
❗ Non-traditional sweet pet | teachers and students + age difference + realistic orientation
❗ The ultimate ambiguous pull | "Every time you get close is a sin, every time you stay away is pain."
❗ The growth-oriented male protagonist | The path of transformation from a mountain boy to an architect
❗ The heroine is sober and restrained | "I love you, but I hope you fly to the sky that belongs to you."
❗ Aesthetics of broken mirrors | Some love is not for being together, but for becoming better each other

Author says
This is a story about "borders".
The boundary between teachers and students, the boundary between age, the boundary between urban and rural areas, and the boundary between morality.
But love never knows how to draw boundaries. It only breaks out in all the places where it shouldn't grow.
Get your tissues ready and your heartbeat ready - the deer in the mountains are about to start croaking.
