In the second semester of the second year of high school, when the sun shone slantly into the classroom, Shen Nian, a repeater, woke up lying on the table and saw the side face of Chinese teacher Lin Zhiyao shrouded in halo. That glance became the biggest heartbeat in her desolate youth.
26-Year-old Lin Zhiyao is gentle and reserved, and is an excellent teacher praised by everyone; 19-year-old Shen Nian is cold and rebellious, hiding the scars of the past. An impulsive confession was lightly brushed off as a joke, but it struck a chord in the hearts of both of them. From individual tutoring to sharing an umbrella on a rainy night, from holding hands at the beach to the first kiss on the sofa, they carefully steal warmth between the boundaries. Shen Nian picked up the textbook again for Lin Zhiyao, and Lin Zhiyao learned to lose sleep for Shen Nian.
This is a story about backlighting - meeting in backlighting and parting in backlighting.
Intention: Love means letting go, fulfilling, and being willing to be misunderstood to protect the other person.
