People are always like this: the one you love doesn't love you, and the one who loves you isn't the one you love. Mu Jiangchen gives Su Qiqi his whole heart, always waiting for her to love him back. But Su Qiqi still can't move on from the past, while Chen Jinnian harbors a deep love he cannot confess.
Chen Jinnian is the boy Su Qiqi has had a crush on for years. Their lives should never have crossed much. But after Chen Jinnian became her older brother, Su Qiqi's life veered off its original path.
Years later, Chen Jinnian asks Su Qiqi, "Do you love me?"
Su Qiqi replies, "I once did. What about you?"
Chen Jinnian smiles. The words "I never did" reach his lips, but he swallows them back.
Su Qiqi asks Mu Jiangchen, "What if your mom doesn't like me?"
Mu Jiangchen: "Then I'll bring a man home."
Su Qiqi: "..."
Mu Jiangchen: "Then my mom will think that no matter what sort of weirdo I bring home, it's still better than her son finding a boyfriend."
