When he was eleven years old, Ren Yuan picked up a crybaby "little girl" in an amusement park.
A piece of strawberry ice cream changed the boy's paranoid heartbeat for seven years. He remembered the wet eyes, but he only mistook the gender.
Seven years later, the city's No. 1 Middle School.
Ren Yuan is the "gentle academic god" who is looked up to by the whole school. Behind his perfect mask is a world-weary and cold heart.
Jiang Man is a "violent school bully" who is feared by everyone. He is covered in spikes, but after being wronged, he will hide in a corner where no one is and secretly drop pearls.
When we first met, Jiang Man grabbed Ren Yuan's collar and shouted, "Don't be so prude, I can't stand a hypocrite like you!"
Ren Yuan smiled like a spring breeze, but his eyes behind the lenses were lifeless: "Okay, then let's ask Mr. Jiang to teach me until the end."
He thought he was just playing a hunting game. He tore off Jiang Man's disguise and watched him cry, watch him tremble, and watch him cling to his arms like a vine.
But when the layers of fog dissipate, when the truth that has been sealed for many years is revealed——
The "little girl" back then has become the young boy in front of me.
And what he gave was no longer cool comfort, but a bloody knife tip.
"Jiang Man, you are most beautiful when you cry."
"But I forgot that what I personally taught you is not only dependence, but also despair."
The sweetness in this world is like the ice cream when I was eleven years old, melting under the hottest sun, leaving mottled residue on the ground that can no longer be washed away.
