1. The first time Xu Nian met Xie Yi, the boy was wearing a white shirt buttoned all the way to the top, so prim and proper. Then he held out his hand and said, "Xie Yi. Your tutor."

From then on, Xu Nian's life was turned upside down.

Xu Nian: "I want to play basketball."

Xie Yi: "Finish your homework."

Xu Nian: "I want to go on a date!"

Xie Yi: "Finish your workbook."

Xu Nian, unable to finish the workbook, clenched her teeth and threatened, "If you don't let me go out, I'll make a move on you!"

Xie Yi's fingertip paused. He gave a noncommittal "Mm."

Xu Nian: "?"

Xie Yi: "Finish this problem first."

Not long after, Xu Nian asked him, "Xie Yi, do you like me?"

The boy was silent for a moment, then nodded.

Yes, I've loved you for a long time.

2. Years later, Xu Nian returned to the country and waited outside No. 7 High School to stop Xie Yi after work. She forced herself to look strong as she asked, "Do you still want me?"

The man glanced at her coldly and brushed past her, leaving her with two words.

"No."

3. In the third year after Xu Nian disappeared, Xie Yi wrote her name tens of thousands of times. Someone had told him that if you miss someone, write down their name. They'll hear you and appear before you.

When he had written it for the 100,001st time, she came back and asked if he still wanted her.

In a fit of anger, he turned her down.

4. Xu Nian got married, to the Xie Yi who rejected her during the day, then came to propose that very night, and whom she had loved for so many years.

That was her Xie Yi.
