On the first day of high school, Xu Zhiyu stayed next to the name of his new classmate Lu Xi for less than a second.
She never thought about getting to know him, let alone like him.
She has seen too many kinds of "love" turn into "no more than this" - the secret that was revealed when she was twelve years old was like a thorn in her trust in everyone.
Lu Xi was completely different from her. He plays basketball, he loves to laugh, he is liked by many people, and he lives like the August sun. Xu Zhiyu feels that this kind of person is the most dangerous - things that are too bright are often hot to the touch.
But unfortunately, he became her deskmate.
Unexpectedly, he would come over to her during morning English reading and say, "I forgot to bring my book again," and then naturally share a textbook with her.
However, he would secretly pull her shoelaces during class, and when she stared back, he would smile like nothing happened.
She thought she hated him.
But one day, she found that she began to remember the sweat on his forehead when he came back from playing golf, her tone of voice when he handed over the thermos cup, and the way he looked at her when everyone else was looking at the excitement.
What Xu Zhiyu didn't know was that Lu Xi had seen through her from the first day - she wasn't really cold, she was just too scared.
Afraid to believe, afraid to rely, afraid that one day, he will become "no more than that".
This is a story about trust, about healing, about two seventeen-year-olds repeatedly testing each other's boundaries, and finally choosing not to give in.
There is wind in August, and the wind will blow some things away, and it will also blow some people to the right direction.
Intention: Even if you have been let down, you must believe that someone is willing to stay for you.
