Sheng Qi is a proud man who never gets what he wants.
Song Yao is a poor student who squeezed into this aristocratic high school with a scholarship. She is cold, distant, and reclusive. Everyone said she was playing hard to get, but only Sheng Qi knew otherwise - there was no calculation in her eyes when she looked at him, only an almost sad restraint that he couldn't understand.
It took him two full years to finally let her let go of her guard, smile to him, cry to him, nod to him and say "ok" - go to Beijing together, leave this city together, and have a long, long future together.
He didn't know she had received a diagnosis from the hospital.
One month before the college entrance examination, the relationship between the two was reported. In the academic office, her father, a janitor, knelt in front of his mother. She stood in the corner, her face as white as paper.
That day she said to him at the end of the corridor: "Sheng Qi, let's stop here."
He said yes.
He didn't know that it was the last few times she had spoken to him.
Three months later, he found her in a hospital room in another city. She was thinner, her hair was shorter, and she had IV tubes tied to her wrists. Seeing him standing at the door, she was stunned for a long time, and then sighed softly: "Why did you come?"
He folded the suspension application and placed it on her bedside table.
"Because you still owe me a future."
She smiled. That was the easiest time he had ever seen her smile.
"Don't cry. I've saved all your tears in this life."
She was twenty years old that year. Every year after that, when the ginkgo leaves fell, he was always there.
