"A butterfly flapping its wings in the Amazon basin can set off a storm in the distant Atlantic."
Fu Chenyu never imagined that He Shisui would one day leave him.
They had known each other since childhood and were inseparable.
On the day He Shisui's concert tour ended, Fu Chenyu took time off to meet her at the airport.
But He Shisui wasn't the only one who arrived. His good friend Zhou Xichun was with her, too.
Their fingers were intertwined, and they wore matching couple rings.
Fu Chenyu suddenly realized:
He Shisui had changed her college choices for Fu Chenyu, and Zhou Xichun had changed his, too;
He Shisui had gotten into trouble for Fu Chenyu, and Zhou Xichun had always been there beside her.
Could it be that Zhou Xichun had always been in love with his own younger sister?
That night,
Fu Chenyu cornered Zhou Xichun in the garage and demanded to know why he had gone after He Shisui.
Zhou Xichun tossed him a stack of photo albums. They were full of pictures of He Shisui looking at Fu Chenyu, from the side, from behind, from the front...
"You can't return her feelings, so what gives you the right to expect me not to fight for her?"
-
Fu Chenyu searched for He Shisui in the house, carrying the keepsake they'd pledged to each other as children. He wanted to be brave, just once in his life.
Zhou Xichun pinned her hands above her head and held her in his arms. Hearing Fu Chenyu's anxious footsteps outside the door, he silenced her with a kiss.
-
He Shisui at eighteen
was a butterfly resting in Fu Chenyu's palm, drifting peacefully into sleep;
was a storm rising in Zhou Xichun's heart, impossible to quell.
