Chen Sujing first met Li Tong beneath the dim streetlights behind their university.
That day, she swooped in to save a damsel in distress. Her white shirt stayed spotless, and she even got Li Tong back before the dorm curfew. After running into each other several times, Li Tong gradually fell for her, and from then on, she was head over heels.
Beneath the kapok trees behind the dormitory, Li Tong couldn't hold back any longer and confessed her feelings. Chen Sujing turned her down.
But later, in their rented apartment, Chen Sujing was the one who fell the deepest.
Then Chen Sujing said, "Let's break up. You're a stumbling block on my road to fame."
Those words trapped Li Tong in her youth.
What she didn't know was that Chen Sujing was the one who hurt the most.
When they met again, Chen Sujing had become a rising star singer in the entertainment industry, basking in the stage lights as thousands watched her in all her glory.
Li Tong, meanwhile, had become editor-in-chief of REVERB, one of the country's top music magazines. Cool-headed and sharp, she was no longer the girl who used to blush and tease Chen Sujing.
At the interview, they stared at each other across a long table.
One asked, "Ms. Chen, was your new album written for an ex?"
The other smiled and asked in return, "What do you think, Editor-in-Chief Li?"
They both thought time would be enough to make them forget their love.
But as it turned out, some feelings only need one more meeting to flare back to life.
This time, though, neither of them dared to say forever so easily.
