In midsummer, the camphor trees are lush and the broken light fills the corridor.
Xu Qi hurried away with his book in his arms and was caught off guard and bumped into Jiang Xuan Island. An accidental collision made two introverted boys and girls become classmates in the same class.
Xu Qi is sensitive and timid, and is used to hiding his worries quietly; Jiang Xuanyu is cold and taciturn, and is used to living alone. The desks are within easy reach, the silent reminders on the draft paper, the sunset we watch side by side by the window at dusk, the quiet time spent together during the lunch break. There are no passionate and straightforward confessions, only the secret and cautious heartbeat of young people.
They get close to each other and comfort each other's loneliness in their youth, but neither of them is good at talking about their grievances. Misunderstandings accumulate quietly and estrangement slowly grows.
The grand encounter began in midsummer, but the story failed to reach a happy ending.
Later, the sea of people changed, and they each went to different paths. The tenderness and throbbing at those desks will ultimately only remain in that summer when the camphor leaves were shaking, becoming a regret that cannot be repeated.
Purpose: To write about the lonely encounter of young people. Youth is not only about perfection, those silent heartbeats and helpless partings are also part of growth.
