Her Light Comes from Summer

The teachers and students of Qinglan Middle School all know that Lin Wei, who is in the second grade of high school, is an anomaly. She is the top student in her grade all year round. Her notebooks are filled with neat formulas, and her test papers always have bright red perfect scores, but she is like a plant that cannot see the light, always shrinking in the corner of the classroom. Someone deliberately knocked her book away, but she would bend down to pick it up silently; someone threw dirty water behind her back, but she kept her head down without saying a word. The shadow of domestic violence is engraved in her bones, and the bullying on campus is wrapped around her body. She has long been accustomed to using silence as armor, thinking that her life should be prosperous in a corner where no one cares. Until the girl named Xia Ran crashed into her world like a little sun. Xia Ran is the worst student in the class. She always sleeps in class and her school uniform coat is always open. But when Wang Li and others blocked the alley again, she would drag Lin Wei behind her, pick up her schoolbag and rush towards her: "How dare you try to touch her?" She would stuff hot roasted sweet potatoes into Lin Wei's frozen hands, would let Lin Wei lecture in an empty classroom, and when Lin Wei was being chased by her father, she would rush over with her parents to block her. "Lin Wei, you don't have to hold it in all the time, you have to fight back." Xia Ran's voice was clear as a young man's, "Speak up when you are wronged, and run away when you are bullied. If you can't do that... I will beat you back for you." At first it was Xia Ran's unilateral protection, then it was the draft of the solution that Lin Wei quietly handed over; at first it was cautious testing, and then it was the warmth of sharing a quilt on a rainy night. When the silent top student began to raise his hands in class, and when the rebellious student handed over the test paper with expectation in his eyes, the two girls finally found each other's light in their troubled youth. She taught her how to reconcile with the world, and she led her out of the long dark night. This redemption is never a one-way journey, but two lonely souls finally dare to hold each other's hand and walk together to a place with light. Purpose: Taking the mutual redemption of the two heroines as the main line, it explores the impact of original family trauma and campus bullying on the growth of teenagers, shows the delicate and tenacious friendship between women, conveys the warm power of "even if you are in the gutter, you can be led to the light by love and courage", and emphasizes the importance of self-awareness and peer support in healing pain and achieving growth.
