Lan Xin is a well-known "school bully" in Linyuan No. 1 Middle School - she sleeps in class and climbs over walls after class. She has a pair of natural peach blossom eyes but never bothers to look at others. Mu Bei is a top student in the top three grades. He is cool and orderly, like a planet whose orbit has been accurately calculated. The two have been neighbors since they were six years old. One is inside the door and the other is outside. They are separated by a few steps and have grown up together.
In their senior year of high school, their relationship was forced to a dead end by two things at the same time: the college entrance examination, and Lan Xin's drug-addicted father being taken away by the police again. Lan Xin decided to drop out of school and work so that Mu Bei could go to the best university in Wangchuan. Mu Bei decided to give up that university and stay with Lan Xin. Both want to sacrifice for each other, both are pushing the other away, and both think that letting go is the only way to achieve success. Until that winter, on the stone steps of an abandoned lighthouse, they finally poured out the tears and harsh words they had saved for twelve years.
"You are the person I can't afford to lose the most." Lan Xin said.
"But I've been very close to you since I was six years old. You just want to push me away now, it's too late," Mu Bei said.
This is a story about growth, protection and running in both directions. From the sea in Linyuan to the river in Wangchuan, from the joke of "I will raise you" to the agreement of "walking together", the two girls found the unmovable North Star in each other.
The cities, rivers, schools, mountains, etc. In the article are all imaginary creations by the author and have no connection with reality. Any similarity is purely coincidental.
Short story: This book was originally called "Polaris", but when I read it, I, I, I, I, oh my god! There are too many people called Polaris! So I changed it to "Chenxing", but the content has not changed and it is still the North Star. I am just afraid that you can't find me... QwQ
Intent: Love is not about someone sacrificing for whom, but becoming each other's North Star - always shining a steady light for each other on their respective running tracks.
