When she was six years old, she put a green plum into his hand.
"Next time we meet, I'll treat you to something sweet."
He has been waiting for her for ten years.
——
Xu Youning is the only daughter of the Xu Group. She is pure and well-behaved, first in grade, and has two deep dimples when she smiles.
No one knows that her gentleness is a kind of precise hunting.
Ji Hansheng is the second young master of the Ji Group. He is gloomy and surly. He wears a black earring in his right ear. He sits by the north window in the back row of the classroom all year round - there is no sunlight there.
No one knew that his indifference was a long wait.
He recognized her on the first day she transferred school and returned to China.
And she only felt that this boy looked familiar, like a vague summer in her memory.
Qingmeitang appeared at her pen holder on time every day, and his school uniform jacket and down jacket "just appeared on that day, in that corner of the rooftop where no one dared to go. She opened the door, and he was always there.
She wrote a love letter, and he took it in public, but turned around and stood in front of the trash can for a long time - in the end, the letter was folded and hidden in his heart together with a yellowed cloth patch.
There are only three words on the sticker: Xu Youning.
She discovered the photo album in his bedroom and learned that someone had secretly collected her appearance from the age of six to sixteen for ten years.
"Ji Hansheng, have you been waiting for me for a long time? "
"……Um. "
Later, she blocked him in the back alley of the school, stood on tiptoes, and touched the black earrings he had worn for nine years:
"The black stud earrings are so pretty. "
"If you like it, I'll give it to you. "
"What about its owner? Can he take it in as well? "
He took her hand and put it to his lips:
"Take me in? Owner. "

This is a story about waiting and rushing.
From the age of nine to nineteen, he spent all his youth waiting for someone.
And she told him in a blatant hunt:
The cold winter is not cold because of peace.
The green plums will ripen, the wine will age, and I will be at every place where you are waiting for me, as promised.
Purpose: The work explores the meaning of "being seen" and "being healed" through the encounter and love between two young girls whose native families have shortcomings. The female protagonist uses Bai Qiehei's sobriety and initiative to break the high wall built by the male protagonist due to childhood trauma; the male protagonist uses silent and long-term waiting to let the female protagonist learn to show weakness and show his sincerity. The story aims to express: true love is not about saving, but about standing side by side. It's about recognizing each other in each other's scars and choosing not to let go.
