Gentle ray of sunshine x world-weary cool guy

Poetry and faraway places (female) x caged bird (male)

When she was young, she would sneak off to see the boy who often came to the hospital for IV drips. He was pale, thin, and sickly. The three words he said most often were, "What's the point?"

In the end, she slipped up. The boy, sitting against his hospital bed, glanced sideways at her and asked in a cool, indifferent voice, "Do you know me?"

On a rainy day as they parted, they agreed to meet outside the soup dumpling shop. Xia Zhuo waited with an umbrella until the very last moment, but the reckless, unruly boy never showed up again.

-

Years later, in a hallway filled with the smell of disinfectant.

Xia Zhuo accidentally overhears an argument. A woman hysterically asks him what he wants, and on the other side of the wall, all he does is laugh and casually toss out a few words in a cool, unbothered tone: "I want to die."

The way he says it is so casual and careless. She has only ever heard one person speak like that.

She takes a little too long to turn around after eavesdropping, and hears footsteps approaching behind her. Someone lets out a laugh through his nose and drawls lazily, his voice low: "Xia Zhuo, pretending you don't know me?"

One day, Lu Fenghe absentmindedly opens a paper crane and finds a neat line of delicate handwriting inside:

If the moon can hear me, Lu Fenghe, I've told you I love you a thousand times.

Next novel: "A Rose for Him"

As a student, Sheng Zhi once liked someone so much that she thought of his name whenever dusk fell: Shen Jingchi.

-

On the day they parted, Shen Jingchi sat on the sofa and silently smoked a cigarette. Through the pale blue smoke, he saw the tears in her eyes, but all he did was grin at her without a care in the world, still acting like the same good-for-nothing: "It's cold. Go home."

Before she left, he draped his coat over her shoulders. In the pocket, whether on purpose or by accident, he'd left the mint candies she liked.

-

She thought she'd been nothing more than a brief episode in his youth, until she found a diary from Shen Jingchi's high school days among his old things. Every line was about her.

The date on the last page was the day before he left. The handwriting was bold and forceful, the words brief:

I am the one who loves and cannot have.

-

Sheng Zhi thought later that Shen Jingchi had actually told her he loved her a long time ago.

That midsummer, the wind fluttered the hem of the boy's clothes. He stood on a bridge in his basketball jersey, a brilliant sunset behind him. Grinning roguishly, he waved to her. "Remember my name: Shen Jingchi."

-

"A boy's love begins in midsummer, then hides in every glance he gives her."
