The first time Lin Shengyuan met Xie Qingyan was backstage in the school auditorium.
She was wearing a Tutu skirt from the Sugarcandy Fairy and was trying on a pointe shoe on her tiptoes. The spotlight hadn't turned on yet, and there was only a dim light in the background that enveloped her, like a candy that hadn't been opened yet.
Later he found out that she was a dance student and would go to the rehearsal hall after school every day to practice until dark. When she danced the Plum Sugar Fairy, the arc of her arms seemed to be caressing an invisible cloud. He often thought that if secret love had a color, it would probably be the glitter on her dance skirt - it was beautiful, but he couldn't catch it.
He wrote many letters to her, each of which was folded into very small squares and hidden in the interlayer of the writing box. Those letters always started with "Xie Qingyan", but he never wrote the end. Because he knew that this story had no ending from the beginning.
She doesn't like him. She doesn't even know who he is. Don't know him either
On the day of her graduation party, she danced the Sugar Fairy on the school stage for the last time. He was in the audience, surrounded by applause one after another. He said something in his heart that he had never said out loud: "Xie Qingyan, I have seen you many times."
Then the show ended, the lights came up, and she disappeared behind the curtain.
Many years later at a class reunion, someone mentioned that he had a crush on her. She held the wine glass and thought for a while, then shook her head politely: "Lin Shengyuan?... I'm sorry, I really don't seem to remember."
He smiled back and drank the wine in the glass.
The lights reflected on the wall of the cup, like a crystal rod on the stage, shattered in his hand.
