Jiang Yue grew up in a repressive Chinese-style family. Her parents wanted her to get into a prestigious school and get ahead. They kept arranging for her to transfer to a high school with better teachers, completely ignoring her ideas. She suffered a friendship betrayal when she was young. She is introverted and sensitive and is afraid of unfamiliar environments, afraid of re-establishing interpersonal relationships, and afraid of falling into isolation again. Being forced to transfer schools again and again is torture for her.
Li Shuhe was trapped in a fragmented family of origin. Her parents divorced quietly in her early years and deliberately concealed the truth until she accidentally found the divorce certificate. Her mother reorganized the family and gave birth to a new child. She lived alone with her father. The long-term lack of love slowly gave birth to rebellion. Smoking and alcohol became an outlet for emotions. Once her father noticed, she would be beaten and scolded.
Two girls with scars met in junior high school. A high school entrance examination went wrong. The separation caused by the score line did not come as expected. Jiang Yue performed abnormally. She was in the same class with Li Hehe again. Similar loneliness attracted each other. They fell in love quietly and became the only light in each other's youth.
But this relationship that was not accepted by the world was soon exposed. Both parents strongly opposed it. The ensuing pressure wrapped up Jiang Yue's mind gradually. Her grades continued to decline. Reality lay before her, and the two were forced to break up.
After the separation, Jiang Yue was still arranged by her family to move around to various schools, but she never let go of Li Shuhe in her heart. In her third year of high school, she desperately transferred back to her old school, only to learn that he had already transferred to another school. When Li Linghan heard that Jiang Yue had come for her, she chose to go back and reunite, and briefly reconciled. The trauma of her original family and the knot left by the forced separation still cannot be resolved.
