After graduation, Xu Jiajia stayed in her small hometown to teach. Her life was peaceful and steady, but also unchanging, like a pool of stagnant water.
At the dinner table, Xu Jiajia kept her head down as she ate while her mother brought it up again.
“You’re already twenty-six. You can’t keep putting this off. Just go meet some new guys. If it doesn’t work out, come home. You always say you’re not interested, but how can you develop feelings if you never meet them and get to know them?”
Xu Jiajia was a coward. There was someone she had liked for a very, very long time.
But she only dared to bury those feelings in her heart. She never told him, or anyone else.
Jiang Huai was a top student at Jing University, outstanding in both knowledge and appearance. Back in school, plenty of girls liked him, but he turned down even the prettiest and highest-achieving ones.
She was just the most inconspicuous of them all.
A firefly dared not gaze at the bright moon.
