Introduction to the novel "Meeting Love at the Corner: Glitz"
On the afternoon of the first day of school, Yan Kai knocked down the cold and beautiful Zhou Xing at the corner of the teaching building, which also kicked off his ten-year love affair.
In order to be worthy of the shining girl, Yan Kai, a low-school student, worked hard to counterattack. From junior high school to high school, they shared a pair of headphones, secretly held hands in the pile of test papers, and made a vow to "be together forever" at the corner of the playground. At that time, Yan Kai thought that as long as he worked hard enough, love could conquer everything.
They went to the same city as they wished, but failed to escape the torrent of reality. The heterosexual love in the same city in college has widened the physical distance, and the class gap and sensitive self-esteem gradually tore apart mutual trust. As Zhou Xing becomes more and more dazzling in the spotlight, Yan Kai sinks deeper and deeper into the quagmire of life. The girl who used to be waiting for him to come home at the corner eventually drifted away amid the quarrels and cold wars.
At the end of the story, Yan Kai did not become a hero who saved the world. He was just an ordinary person whose edges were smoothed by life. On the day of Zhou Xing's wedding, he stood alone in the shadow of the street corner and said softly to the youth he could never get back: "Happy wedding."
