Lin Yan, a sophomore boy in high school, is introverted and silent. Year-round quarrels in his family have made him accustomed to hiding himself. His grades are mediocre and he keeps to himself. The only way to relax is to hide on the rooftop of the school to enjoy the breeze after studying at night.
In the new semester, transfer student Jiang Chi broke into his life. Jiang Chi has a bright and sunny appearance, is good at basketball, and is popular. He seems to be a dazzling presence in the crowd. But only Lin Yan knows that he hides the fatigue and loneliness that no one knows in the middle of the night - his parents have divorced and started their own families. He is like a superfluous person, guarding the empty house and losing sleep all night. All the cheerfulness is just a disguise.
During a chance encounter on the rooftop, two seemingly unrelated teenagers discovered the truest side of each other. They didn't ask too much, just shared the silence tacitly: blowing the evening breeze together, solving questions together, sharing snacks from the convenience store, and silently accompanying each other when they couldn't hold on any longer.
Jiang Chi pulled the introverted Lin Yan out of self-isolation and taught him to raise his head and face the crowd; Lin Yan used quietness and gentleness to catch all of Jiang Chi's collapse hidden in the sun.
There is no bloody conflict, no excitement, only the writing on the wrong question book, the light of the evening self-study, the chirping of cicadas on the summer night and the figures side by side under the street lamp. During their high-pressure and ordinary high school years, they healed and redeemed each other, slowly learned to reconcile with their families, get along with themselves, and became each other's most solid light in their lonely youth.
Intention: intention:
Loneliness is not the normal state of youth. With someone walking side by side, ordinary days can be illuminated by gentleness.
