The love I had in my youth was clean and grand. It was the chirping of cicadas in the evening breeze, the orange sunset, and the uncontrollable heartbeat in my eyes.
Seventeen-year-old Lin Zhiyu met the unruly and flamboyant Lu Shiyan.
They had walked side by side throughout midsummer, sharing a desk, a gust of evening breeze, and countless quietly heart-warming dusk. At that time, they believed that youth is long and the future is long. As long as their minds do not change, they can overcome all differences and distances.
But the most hurtful thing about youth is stubbornness, pride, and unwillingness to bow.
A misunderstanding, several silences, and concessions without anyone speaking first caused the two people who loved each other to part ways at the hottest age. There were no quarrels and tearings, no grand farewells, just a quiet drifting away, and several years of no news from then on.
The years turn and the seasons change.
After many years, Lin Zhiyu lost the cowardice of his youth, became quiet, independent, gentle and self-controlled, learned to reconcile with life, and also learned to quietly seal up the remaining love in his heart. She thought that the midsummer past had ended long ago, and that the rest of her life would be peaceful and uneventful, with no more disturbances.
Until the city's crowds meet old friends again.
Lu Shiyan lost his youthful edge and became calm and restrained, his brows and eyes still cool and gentle. Seeing each other again after a long separation, time has smoothed over the youthful recklessness, but it has not let go of the longing that has been buried for many years. The moment they looked at each other, all the silent past suddenly came to life. It turned out that the heartbeat never really left the scene, but was quietly collected by the years.
They met again with their own regrets and growth, slowly solved the misunderstandings of the past, and made up for the tenderness they missed when they were young.
No more acting on impulse, no longer leaving easily. Adult love must be restrained, firm, cherishable, and tolerant.
After running around in the world for more than ten years and experiencing ups and downs, I realized that the most rare perfection in the world is not love at first sight, but reunion after a long separation.
Pick up a fleeting period of time and pick up a residual joy.
It turns out that all the endless waiting and loneliness are for the sake of finally falling in love with each other.
As the years pass by, everything is a passer-by, but you are the only joy I have lost in the rest of my life.
