He and the World Save Each Other

In a single thought, eternity. I hide in the dim mist, escaping the clamor of the crowd. Warm sunlight pierces the sky. Can you tell me where I belong?

Take my hand. The past is all just clouds. Take me and run away. Listen to the call of your heart, and I’ll give you everything I have.

(1) Jiang Yu, who has taken a leave of absence from school under the weight of it all, suddenly develops appendicitis at home. After surgery, she meets Pei Chi, who has brought her a cake.

“This is number nineteen.”

This unreasonable person is actually my tutor? Mom, why didn’t you tell me sooner?

I’ll forgive you for the sake of the kitty, Teacher Pei.

(2) “Isn’t it normal for college students to tutor?” Pei Chi says lazily. Who knew the person sleeping in so late would be you?

The cat doesn’t cling to me anymore. Pei Chi wonders what Jiang Yu has done to it.

“Come by the shop sometime. It’s on me, to make up for it.”

(3) After returning to school, Jiang Yu tries making new friends with Pei Chi’s gentle encouragement. It turns out fitting in with a crowd is that easy.

Pei Chi catches a top male student tutoring Jiang Yu. “I told you to make friends,” Pei Chi says with a cold snort, “not get a boyfriend.”

(4) Sensitive, slow-to-warm student Jiang Yu X thoughtful dessert shop owner Pei Chi

“I can love this imperfect world, too.”

“So I can get flowers every week, too.”

“I’ll remember every place we’ve walked through and seen together.”

“You’ll never know, Pei Chi, how much I love you.”

(5) The whole story is pretty lighthearted, though parts are a bit heavy, I think.

The female lead doesn’t have depression, she’s just been through some bad things.
