He was a poisonous thorn grown from the ruins, yet he bloomed into the purest flower.
Su Jing's life was a muddy mess.
Until he was six, his mother was his only shelter. After that, he struggled to survive.
He was used to being alone, used to silence, used to wrapping his softest heart in the hardest shell.
If you never hope for anything, you'll never be disappointed.
Then, in his second year of high school, He Shuyun appeared.
He Shuyun, the useless second son of the He family, an oddball in a family of refined scholars, and the only lunatic at school who dared to walk straight out the front gate in broad daylight.
He wore a smiling face, but was more ruthless than anyone when it came to getting things done. Everyone thought he was just playing around, including Su Jing.
But this "delinquent" just wouldn't leave him alone.
He lingered outside the convenience store where Su Jing worked, outside his classroom, and in a heart Su Jing had long since decided to give up on.
A firework flower fell into a thicket of elderberry, and from then on, there was light even in the darkness.
