The heroine Qingwan is a lily that she didn't even notice. She has no interest in boys in high school, and even the gossips of people around her are boring. She always thought that she was just a "late bloomer" until she got a new deskmate named Ling Dong in the liberal arts section of her sophomore year of high school.
The first heartbeat was the tremor when my fingertips accidentally touched her. The first time I secretly looked at her, even my heartbeat said I liked her.
During class, she would pretend to look at the blackboard, but her peripheral vision would always be glued to the side of Ling Dong's face; she would carefully put the half of an eraser and the piece of candy that she handed over into her pencil case; she would secretly feel awkward all afternoon because Ling Dong said a few words to other girls.
She thought it was her one-man show, but she didn't know that Ling Dong had already hidden her name in the corner of his eye every time he peeked.
Ling Dong would draw her profile on the draft paper, secretly block the teacher's sight for her when she was dozing, and pretend to casually hand over a piece of paper with the steps to solve the problem when she was stuck.
Two astringent grapes, on the same desk, slowly brewed into a sweetness that only belongs to each other.
Concept: The green grapes will become sweeter, and the late-ripening heart will bloom.
