The tile-roofed houses in the villages and towns hide Su Nian's two obsessions: the paintings hide the thoughts, and the fists protect the bottom line.
He is a thin, autistic nerd. After his books were stolen, he became tired of learning and taciturn. His precocious thoughts were all locked in the paintings - from the pear-shaped skirts of the eight girls to the young man Lu Ze who suddenly stood in front of him. Lu Ze is like a little sun, with a pear-shaped smile, remembering his preference not to eat icing sugar, standing up to bullies, and even seeing through the half-covered profile in the drawing book.
He had a cold face when being robbed of marbles, and gritted his teeth to carry it when he was stuck in a sand pit. But when his drawing book was torn and his bottom line was stepped on, he exploded with all his strength at a height of 1.5 Meters and overturned the bully who was 1.7 Meters tall. From then on, his fist was his shield and his painting was his heart. Under his cold and hard shell, he was completely soft towards Lu Ze.
From elementary school to the workplace, Lu Ze's figure gradually filled up his picture books, and his fists changed from protecting himself to protecting the light. Lu Ze translated "I'll protect you" into a long period of time. Su Nian went from hiding from being autistic to bravely opening up. Using painting as a matchmaker and fists as wings, he wrote about the two-way healing of a young man's heart and the tenderness that spans the years.
Purpose: Realistic intent: Based on real experiences, it reflects the growing difficulties of left-behind children in rural areas and the real problems of school bullying, conveys the positive values of "precocious worries are not absurd, but the purest heartbeat of teenagers" and "violence is not the only way to solve problems, but the courage to protect the bottom line is worthy of recognition", triggering readers' empathy and thinking.
