[Shuangjie HE + campus roommate + cold and taciturn boy vs. Delicate and sensitive girl + slow-burning secret love, two-way soft-heartedness]
The first time Jiang Wanxu noticed Shen Yubai was in the classroom on the day of class placement.
She checked in advance and selected a desk by the window with a view of the camphor tree. She put down the exercise book early in the morning and took the seat. She turned around for just a moment, and when she came back, the young man was already sitting there quietly.
A clean test paper was spread out on the wooden table, and his face was immersed in the soft light coming through the window in early autumn. He looked cold and distant, with no intention of giving in.
The first dispute came to the head teacher, and the two were arranged to sit at the same table for a whole year.
At first, Jiang Wanxu only thought that he was stubborn and difficult to get along with. After getting along with him for a long time, she realized that all the tenderness of this person was hidden in the inconspicuous details. He would always silently leave most of the desk to her and tolerate all her trivial emotions.
On the day of their confession, camphor leaves fell on the homework books they had spread out.
She gently poked his arm with her fingertips: "You never seem to reject me."
Shen Yubai raised his eyes, his eyes filled with the evening breeze: "I will only make an exception for you."
Jiang Wanxu always said that Shen Yubai was a gentle star hidden in the cracks of the desk. He was quiet and reserved, but he illuminated her entire boyhood for a long time.
The young man's heartbeat is like the camphor branches swaying on the window sill all year round. They are not ostentatious and enthusiastic, but they are evergreen year after year, quietly covering her entire youth.
Purpose: Based on the daily life of high school freshmen Jiang Wanxu and Shen Yubai, and using detailed school images such as half a desk, camphor leaves, exercises, and umbrellas, it depicts young people's introverted and restrained youthful secret love that runs in both directions; at the same time, it uses the complementary arts and sciences and the plot of dealing with people to interpret the friendship of young people who are gentle and measured, complete each other, and protect each other, explore the unique dignity, kindness, and heartbeat of adolescence, and gently depict the pure and clean growth time of high school.
