On that rainy night in May, Gu Zhaoyan picked up a young boy covered in injuries outside his house. The boy woke up full of hostility and stumbled into the night without even leaving a word of thanks. Gu Zhaoyan thought it was just a chance encounter until the day he started his freshman year of high school when he saw that face again in the last row of the new class.
His name is Li Yuzhe, and he is a famous school bully in No. 3 Middle School. It is said that he has broken other people's legs. But in Gu Zhaoyan's eyes, he was just a little puppy with fried hair and no deterrent. The top student in the grade took the initiative to apply to sit next to the school bully, and a long and passionate teasing routine began... Li Yuzhe was teased so much that his ears turned red, he cursed, and he even cried, but there was nothing he could do about him.
Until Gu Zhaoyan discovered that the old and new injuries crisscrossing Li Yuzhe's back came from his alcoholic father. Beaten with a belt and slashed with a knife, the man used his own son as a tool to vent violence. When Gu Zhaoyan saw with his own eyes that Li Yuzhe was beaten until he was bleeding and lying on the bed unable to move, the tears that the young man had endured for fifteen years finally burst. He curled up in Gu Zhaoyan's arms and broke down crying, uttering the words "Why me" for the first time.
From that rainy night to the fireworks on New Year's Eve, from the boy who was afraid of ghosts during military training to the figure who beat up a gangster neatly in the moonlight, the two boys found an unprecedented light in each other's lives. Gu Zhaoyan melted a frozen heart with patience and gentleness, and Li Yuzhe unknowingly became the softest and strongest being in Gu Zhaoyan's world.
This is a story about redemption and growth. When the storm passes, May is followed by a long, bright summer.
Intention: The storm brought us an encounter in May, and I was caught off guard and broke into your world.
