Xu Qinghuan and Qi Wan were childhood sweethearts who grew up together. After being separated for a year, they reunited in midsummer. They were studying in the same class and lived next to each other. Their parents had good friendships and always liked to joke about them.
At night when she was alone at home, she went to Qi's house for dinner. The young man silently gave her the boneless pork ribs and whispered to her before leaving, saying that they would go together in the future.
In the early morning, under the old locust tree at the entrance of the alley, he would always wait for her to go to school in advance; during the self-study class, a notebook filled with various problem-solving ideas was quietly pushed to her hand, with a dried gardenia hidden in it.
In the evening, the sunset filled the sky. The two met in the gardenia garden. He leaned over and patiently explained the problem to her. The evening breeze carried the fragrance of the flowers, and the distance gradually came closer.
The two of them each have secret and shy feelings, but they dare not expose them due to their identities that have grown young over the years. All tenderness and unspoken confessions are quietly hidden in the long summer wind of seventeen years old.
Purpose: To depict the pure and gentle thoughts of a seventeen-year-old boy based on the youthful secret love of childhood sweethearts, to show the implicit, sincere, two-way beautiful feelings of adolescence, and to cherish the gentle companionship that accompanies them day and night.
