Reunion after a long separation / Second chance at love / 1v1 / Happy ending
For the first fifteen years of her life, Shen Chuyue was the moon cherished in her grandparents' palms. Their warmth quietly filled the void left by her parents' divorce, but it also planted seeds of sensitivity and distrust in her heart. She had a deep need for security and saw her grandparents as the one unwavering light in her life.
She gave everything she had to get into a prestigious high school, only to become an isolated outsider in her new surroundings. She hid all her thoughts in her books until Xie Zhexun appeared, like a beam of light suddenly cutting through the long night.
He was a favored son of heaven, wrapped in happiness, with a loving family and excellent grades. Occasionally cocky and sharp-tongued, he was nonetheless sincere with others. Shen Chuyue was drawn to his freedom and defiance, captivated by his gentle, open nature, and followed him with her eyes through her entire youth.
Gradually, he also saw the resilience and tenderness hidden beneath the quiet girl's exterior. They encouraged each other and fought side by side, becoming each other's brightest stars throughout high school. Their youthful affection took root, and they set off hand in hand toward the future.
But the storms of senior year came suddenly. Her grandparents' health and the unease she could never shake ultimately led Shen Chuyue to cut short their deep love. Five years passed in a flash. No longer the awkward teenagers they once were, they met again in a sea of people.
All the unspoken care and unresolved regrets from years ago surged up in the moment they reunited. This time, can they break through the barriers between them and use the power of refraction to piece their shattered moonlight back into a perfect whole?
Theme: With refracted light, piece together the incomplete moon, so its clear radiance may shine on and wholeness endure. (Inspired by Su Shi's "Let the clear light continue the waning moon.")
