On the first day of high school, Zhou Yuning waited for Lin Yue at the school gate. Later, they went to and from school together, went to self-study together in the evening, and drank oolong tea together in the entrance of the canteen while enjoying the night breeze. Everyone thought they were a couple, including Zhou Yuning himself.
It wasn't until they changed seats in the first semester of high school that Lin Yue became Su Mian's deskmate. Su Mian is a quiet and reserved girl. Don't talk much, don't argue or fight, just sit quietly in the corner. But Zhou Yuning discovered that the way Lin Yue looked at Su Mian was different from the way he looked at himself.
She began to pay attention to details that she had never paid attention to before - when Lin Yue was writing, he would unconsciously turn a little to the left, which was the direction of Su Mian; when helping Su Mian pick up the fallen pen, his fingers stayed on the table for a moment longer. These are all very small things, so small that if you don't look carefully, you won't notice them at all.
But she found out. Then she started digging. Dig deeper and deeper. What she didn't know was that there was someone who understood all this earlier than she did. The man said nothing. She's just waiting.
There are very few appearances in the book and not many lines. But everyone has changed their trajectory because of her.
Concept: The gentlest cruelty in youth is that we always misunderstand love in the hustle and bustle, but we also grow into our own shapes in the misplacement.
