Zhou Yun grew up in a single-parent household. Because her mother worked as a classical dancer, Zhou Yun had no choice but to follow the same path. But her mother's demands were extremely strict, and she never praised her. This left Zhou Yun feeling oppressed and afraid to talk to her mother, so she chose to live at school.
In her first year of high school, Zhou Yun fell for a boy. Her heart would race whenever they crossed paths, but Xiao Li, the boy behind her in class, said he was no good. Zhou Yun didn't listen. One day, just before a school basketball game, that boy cornered an older schoolmate and asked her to bring him water. Zhou Yun's eyes instantly reddened, and she turned and ran, only to collide with a wall of muscle. It was Xiao Li. He joined the game and openly challenged the boy, but things didn't go as he hoped.
A celebrated classical dancer, Zhou Yun has a boyfriend on the swim team whom she's never shown anyone. When he retired and took over the family business, she reposted a comment from over a hundred years ago. The whole internet went wild that day. The comment read: "Zhou Xiaoxian is looking at Captain Xiao, huh? This is so compelling." Her boyfriend had replied: "I'm looking at my light." Only then did Zhou Yun realize that she was his light, too.
Two people surrounded by darkness became each other's light.
