Purpose: We are accustomed to praising the brightness, enthusiasm and perfection of youth, but this novel chooses to face the other side of youth - regret. Lin Li and Luo Bing's three-year "love and murder" is essentially the cowardice and pride unique to adolescence. They use aggression to hide their love and quarrels to maintain contact. This state of "close at hand but far away" is a secret emotion that many people have experienced when they were growing up. The purpose of the novel is to reveal that sometimes the most unforgettable love is born from the clumsiest cover-up. Those unspoken "I like you" and those missed opportunities eventually become irreparable holes in life, constituting the most painful footnote of youth.
