Wen Yan had a crush on his sister's friend Gu Chi for eight years, from the age of nineteen to the age of twenty-seven. The sketchbook was full of his profile and back, but she never said a word.
Wen Yan panicked until a picture of a young girl appeared on the screen saver of Gu Chi's phone. She asked him out to confess her love and poured out eight years of courage in one breath. Gu Chi was silent for a long time, then said, "I'm sorry, you are Lin Ran's sister, and I must respect this relationship."
Wen Yan smiled and said "It doesn't matter", turned around and walked three streets into the heavy rain. When she got home, she locked the sketchbook in the drawer, deleted Gu Chi's WeChat, and devoted all her energy to picture book creation. The picture book "Waiting for Someone" became an unexpected hit, and she became a new illustrator that attracted much attention in the industry.
But after Gu Chi lost her, he realized that he had already liked her. His calmness, restraint, and so-called "respect" are all excuses. What he fears is that there will be no end after he crosses the line. He started to clumsily try to save him, but Wen Yan retreated neatly, and every gesture of kindness was politely blocked by her.
Later, Gu Chi learned from Lin Ran that Wen Yan had anonymously sent a painting to him eight years ago. Lin Ran mistakenly handed it over as an ordinary gift, and he kept it at the bottom of the box without paying attention. He pulled out the painting and looked for Wen Yan like crazy. The high-speed rail station was delayed due to heavy rain, and the two of them were trapped in the waiting room. He finally said what he had said after eight years of delay.
Wen Yan's career grew bigger and bigger, and at the premiere of the animation adaptation of the picture book, Gu Chi publicly confessed in front of everyone. After the two reunited, the subplot between Lin Ran and Zhou Yi also came to a successful conclusion.
Intention: The greatest courage to love someone is not the moment you speak, but still choosing to continue in the silent years. The biggest regret is that I obviously saw the waiting, but pretended that it wasn't there.
