That summer, Liu Xi's world was quiet and monotonous. Then, in the second semester of her first year of high school, the transfer student Xia Sui burst into her life with an aura both fierce and bright. Like a stone tossed into a still lake, Xia Sui's arrival completely changed the course of Liu Xi's life.

From then on, Liu Xi was no longer the invisible girl who kept to herself. She had Xia Sui by her side, along with the lively Jiang Kexia, the steady Lu Jinzhou, and the gentle Lin Shiyuan. Like pieces of a puzzle, the five of them came together to form the most passionate and purest chapter of youth.

But the grandest farewells of youth often arrive without warning. In the summer after graduating high school, an unexpected misunderstanding and argument shattered Liu Xi and Xia Sui's relationship in an instant. Xia Sui left without a word, blocked every way to contact her, and vanished from Liu Xi's world as if she had disappeared from the face of the earth. The days the five had spent together also shattered into memories that could never be put back together.

Five years later, Liu Xi has long since grown used to living alone, carefully locking away those memories. Then a sudden downpour traps her in an unfamiliar cafe. The wind chime above the door rings crisply as a figure so familiar it is engraved in her bones steps inside, shaking off the rain.

The person looks up, and through the hazy mist, her gaze meets Liu Xi's.

It's Xia Sui.

Time seems to freeze in that moment, and Liu Xi's heart skips a beat. She looks at Xia Sui, the person she thought she would never see again in this life, standing right before her. Her features are unchanged, though now touched by a mature distance.

"Long time no see, Liu Xi." Xia Sui's voice is just as light and unhurried as Liu Xi remembers.

It turns out every reunion after a long separation is meant to let an unfinished summer begin again.
