After the reunion, Jiang Yu asked Xu Zhiyi: "Are you single now?"
Later, he said more directly: "I want to pursue you again."
Xu Zhiyi only replied with three words: "I refuse."
When they were seventeen years old, they were two people who everyone thought could not be together. She is sensitive, has low self-esteem, and is used to shrinking herself in the crowd; he has excellent grades, is cold and distant, but he falls in love with her first.
They fell in love and separated when they were young. There was no betrayal, no lack of love, just a half-heard truth and two people who thought they were thinking about each other.
Years later, they reunited during an urban renewal project in Shanghai.
She already had her own career and life, and he finally learned not to make decisions for her without permission.
She said she only talked about work, so he just talked about work; she said stop chasing her, and he really stopped.
But when the person who had been walking towards her really started to back away, Xu Zhiyi realized that some of her heartbeats had not disappeared over time.
Old things will eventually be told, but the truth is not a compound button.
What they want to answer is not whether they can go back to the past, but——
Many years later, they have become different adults and are they still willing to like each other again?
Intent: True love is not about making decisions for the other person, but about respecting each other's choices and learning to love each other again as they grow up.
