Xu Jiamu had imagined what it would be like to see Lin Jia again, more than once. But he never expected Lin Jia to move straight into his home, even if it was only as a tenant.
Xu Jiamu was an orphan, taken in as a child by Xiao Yunsi. After Xiao Yunsi died, he followed his sister Xu Xuan, who was always out and about, from place to place. Xu Jiamu wasn't tall and was often bullied. He could fight back, but as an outsider and a short kid, he was bound to come off worse sometimes. Still, deep down, Xu Jiamu had never been afraid of them.
On the day Lin Jia arrived, Xu Jiamu was still grinning brightly in the morning, but by the afternoon he had nearly been beaten beyond recognition. Why nearly? Because Lin Jia came to get him! Lin Jia was different from Xu Jiamu. He'd been tall since childhood, and when he beat people up, he showed no mercy. With Lin Jia protecting him, Xu Jiamu did whatever he pleased for five whole years.
Five years later, when Lin Jia was in his second year of high school and approaching the crucial college entrance exams, he left. Xu Jiamu couldn't understand it. They had agreed to go to the same elementary school, the same middle school, and the same university, so why had Lin Jia left without saying a word?
