The night Lin Jin left without saying goodbye, Xie Qingci stood in the ice and snow for two hours wearing a black windbreaker.
It was clearly a sub-zero weather, but he felt a warmth spreading along his limbs and bones, seeping into his meridians and heart.
He knew that his body was reaching its limit - hypothermia was like a curse that penetrated his mind before he became unconscious, and it also haunted him for the rest of his life.
Three years later, when they met again, Lin Jin rubbed shoulders with him, carrying the wind. Xie Qingci rubbed his cold fingertips, looking at the young man in front of him who once illuminated his world like the sun, but could no longer feel the slightest warmth - not hypothermia, but a biting cold.
It was the third year since they were separated. It was still cold and unforgettable enough.
But just when Xie Qingci typed "Fifth Breakup Anniversary" in the memo on his mobile phone, the man who was gradually becoming more mature stumbled into his arms, held his fingertips and asked him if he was cold.
The warmth in the man's palm seeped into his cold fingertips little by little. Xie Qingci lowered his eyes and thought of that night five years ago for no reason - the same warmth, but no longer due to hypothermia.
Returning home on a snowy night, I knocked on the door and asked about my past. There is no cold rain in the dream, only the warm lamp is always on
The love buried by the wind and snow finally came to light, and the misunderstandings and hurts were like the last ray of winter snow blown away by the spring breeze. Lin Jin walked through the wind and snow, taking away his hypothermia, warming his fingertips, and also his heart.
Perhaps it was fate that the person who brought him the cold winter snow would eventually become the only antidote to cure hypothermia.
Just because you are me, the only place where I am willing to sink
