Synopsis
On the first day when Chi Yuan transferred to another school, there was only one empty desk in the class. The last row was by the window, and sitting next to him was a person that no one dared approach. Lu Xingzhou, the "school bully" of No. 17 Middle School, carved the word "Mom" with the tip of a knife on the corner of his desk and covered it in a notebook for four years. He is silent, cold, and like a wall that cannot be knocked down. The last one lasted for two days, and the last one lasted for half a month. That table had been empty for more than a year, and no one dared to sit on it. Chi Yuan sat down. They didn't talk the first day. The next day there was a bottle of water on the corner of the table, and the lid had been loosened. "You keep it." The first words he said were three words. Chi Yuan didn't know what this meant. She only knew that every day from then on, there would be something on the corner of the table - a carton of milk, a new pencil, a folded umbrella, fruit cut into pieces of the same size. He said nothing but did everything. Later, Chi Yuan learned about his story: when he was thirteen, his father was imprisoned. Before his mother remarried, she asked him if he could leave, and he said no. After the door closed, he lived alone in that old house for four years, filling the void with fights. He pushed everyone away because "I don't have to wait for you to leave if I leave first." But Chi Yuan was pushed three times by him and took zero steps back. He shouted "You go", but she said she wouldn't go. He pushed her against the railing, and she looked into his eyes and said, "You can't push me." He sat on the steps by the river all night, and she sat on the steps above for three hours, until he collapsed on her knees and cried for the first time. A boy who gives something instead of asking, and a girl who doesn't leave instead of answering. The two walls collided and shattered on the ground. Later, he studied automobile repair and she entered the Academy of Fine Arts. She went to the south, and he saved money to open a shop in the north. He said, "Send me your address when you get there." She said, "Do you want to come see me?" He stood on the platform and said, "Yes." The kite is held by a string. The boat went against the current, but reached the shore. It's not who saved whom. It was two people who caught each other's fall. Later, he repaired himself and she repaired herself, and then they met again under the banyan tree. They were separated by a wall, a river, a ten-hour train ride, and two thousand kilometers of road. But the line was not broken, the ship was not sunk, and the people were not scattered. Concept: Two teenagers who were abandoned in their original families, one uses violence to fill his loneliness, and the other uses silence to digest pain. They sat on both sides of the same desk and learned in the clumsiest way "not to let go" - when you are abandoned by the whole world, having one person sitting there and not leaving is all the salvation.
