Su Ye had never bothered about anything in his life.
He's good-looking, his family is rich, and his parents' random name didn't stop him from becoming a popular figure on campus. He was used to being surrounded by people until he met Ike Mianshan.
They were separated for three years.
Later, he bought a painting at the gallery, which was a painting of mountains and water. I left a message to the person selling the painting:
"Help me tell her that where the mountains are, there is also water."
Concept: Su Ye's name was chosen casually, while Chi Jianshan's name was given after thirteen hours of waiting. One is light and one is heavy. Su Ye is used to being seen, but his frivolity has never been a pretense - it's that he really doesn't know what else he has besides being "good-looking and having a rich family". He opens his screen, shows off, and shows off, not because he is bad, but because that is all he has. Chi Jianshan is different. She had seen heavy things—her father's death, her mother's silence, every step of the sixth-floor stairwell—so she didn't need to prove "who I was" to anyone. She stood there and that was who she was. What happened between these two people was not love in nature. It is a light person who learns to "land", and it is a heavy person who learns to "not hide". Su Ye's growth line: from "I want her to see me" to "It's good if I stay next to her." He no longer needs to be seen because he has found his roots. Ikemiyama's growth line: from "I can live alone" to "I can live alone, but I won't be crowded around him." She is no longer afraid of dependence, because she knows that Su Ye will not disappear suddenly like a mountain. The three years of separation were not for the purpose of abuse, but for the two of us to complete this matter separately. For the first time in Beijing or the province, Su Ye discovered that "being seen" was no longer enough. He needed to "see himself." The same goes for Chi Jianshan. She found that she could live, support, and be independent, but she also found that "being able to live" and "wanting to live" were two different things - wanting to live meant having him by her side. When we finally meet again, the mountains are still mountains and the leaves are still leaves. But the leaves fell and stopped at the foot of the mountain. It was not blown down by the wind, it was chosen by oneself. So the core of the idea: everyone needs to find something that stops them from floating around. Su Ye found Chi Jianshan. Ikemiyama found the thing about "admitting that he wanted him by his side". Both men fell down. It's not who saves whom. After they landed on the ground, they found that the other person happened to be standing next to them.
