When Su An opened the dark blue iron box and counted the seventh mint candy, he found a small, hand-painted star hidden under the candy's wrapping paper.
Just like the band-aid pattern stuck on the mouth of his iceberg classmate Jiang Qi.
Su An always believed that Jiang Qi's approach was due to "accidental" borrowing of books, notes filled with detailed explanations, and mint candies that alleviated his hypoglycemia. He got used to this silent companionship, until the classes merged into deskmates, until the hand that held his tightly under the desk when rumors spread, until the other party's unfinished confession that was accidentally interrupted when the Ferris wheel reached its top on Christmas Eve.
It suddenly dawned on him that all the "accidents" were a carefully planned and grand silent confession.
And that unique seventh mint was the only key to each other's hearts that Jiang Qi mustered up the courage to hand to him.
This is a story about secret love and discovery. It is hidden in the coolness of the mints, in the unfinished words, and even more so in the unique seventh candy prepared only for one person.
