Midsummer Never Sets

Description 1:

Lin Ting and Chen Zhisi seemed to have nothing to do with each other.

One was a new student who had just transferred to the school.

The other was a well-known and popular figure at Nancheng No. 1 High School.

They seemed like they could never have anything in common.

Until one day, Chen Zhisi was cornered on the sports field and confessed to.

The boy still had a ball in his arms, sweat glistening in the blazing sun.

In front of everyone's eyes, he turned and glanced toward someone.

When everyone followed his gaze in unison,

Lin Ting: "..."

If I say there's nothing going on between us, will you believe me?

Description 2:

Years later, they talked about him again at a reunion after graduation.

A classmate who had no idea what had happened tried to explain for her: "Don't get the wrong idea. They're just ordinary friends."

Lin Ting lowered her eyes and wiped the alcohol she'd accidentally spilled on her fingertips.

Her memories took her back to an afternoon years earlier.

Behind a tree on the school sports field, he had pinned her there and kissed her.

The bark pressed painfully into her back, and his breath was hot against her.

His scent filled the air around them.

She secretly turned her head to catch her breath, as if oxygen had suddenly become worth its weight in gold. The boy asked her, "Girlfriend, are you still not going to give me a title?"

The private room suddenly felt stuffy. She wanted to go wash her hands, but ran into the very person they'd just been talking about at the door. Lin Ting froze for a moment when she recognized him.

Chen Zhisi merely glanced at her, walked in, and said quietly, "Sorry I'm late."

She breathed a sigh of relief, thinking he hadn't heard what they'd said.

But near the end of the reunion, in the dead of night, he stopped her somewhere secluded.

The man spoke unhurriedly. "Hello, just an ordinary friend."

#That Midsummer Will Never End

She never seemed quite certain as she walked toward him. But she was sure she would never meet anyone she could love this much again.

School life and city life, with school life taking up less of the story. Once that part is over, the story will fast-forward.

No intimate behavior before adulthood.
