Fish in Every Year

[A seemingly sunny, gentle girl, Cheng Sui, and a truly cold, stubborn boy, Yu Nian]

Cheng Sui shines brightly despite the odds, while Yu Nian gives up on himself in the depths of despair, hating the world. But when light shines into the abyss, it is no longer an abyss.

Blurb 1:

Cheng Sui: "Happy New Year. I wish you happiness and good health."

Yu Nian: "Happy New Year. May Sui Sui have Yu."

Cheng Sui asks, confused: "May there be fish every year?"

Yu Nian says firmly: "Yeah! Sui Sui has Yu."

Cheng Sui has Yu Nian.

Blurb 2:

Soaked to the skin, Yu Nian rushes into the hospital and sees the lights in the operating room go out. The doctor comes out and takes off his mask. "The patient is fine. She'll be moved to a regular ward." Just then, Zhou Cheng sees the once-arrogant boy fall to his knees and burst into tears, as if grateful to the world for saving that girl.

"Yu Nian used to have us, but Cheng Sui had only herself."

"It turns out not every obedient child gets candy, and not every parent loves their child."

"You appeared in my world, bringing so much beauty that you swallowed me whole. From then on, all my world held was you and the light."

"This world really is beautiful. It's a shame none of that beauty belongs to me."

To Cheng Sui, Yu Nian is the reason she is willing to live in this world and keep facing the sun.

To Yu Nian, Cheng Sui is the only ray of light in his abyss, pulling him back into the human world so he won't wander in endless darkness.

[The best kind of love is when you stride forward while I make my slow way through the thorns. Even though it's slow and painful, in the end, our paths meet.]
