Blurb:
1,
In high school, there was a boy in her class named Shen Linqiao. He was handsome and excelled at his studies. Yu Nian secretly nurtured a crush on him, but sadly, Shen Linqiao seemed hardly to know she existed.
Eight years later, Yu Nian returned to her hometown. By the stone bridge she had crossed countless times as a girl, she accidentally unearthed seventeen letters buried deep underground. They chronicled a boy's passionate, sorrowful secret love for a girl.
Nervous, she opened them one by one. At the end of the last letter, she found these words:
[Yu Nian, you'll probably never know that I made ten thousand implausible coincidences just to get close to you.]
The signature was none other than...
Shen Linqiao.
Shock and disbelief mingled as scenes from their youth rose from the pages, one by one. Yet every single memory shattered what she had believed...

Yu Nian, who had once been unremarkable in every way but her looks, had since become a household-name A-list actress. But the brilliant student admired by all had vanished without a trace. After searching everywhere, Yu Nian was stunned to learn that he had passed away six months earlier.
