"You are the candlelight that woke me from my nightmares."
"People are always all fired up for three minutes. You're my 181st second."
"See that light up ahead? That's where I'm going."
They made it through disaster, discrimination, and the fireworks, and ran toward each other.
The train's rumble filled their ears as the scenery rushed past.
The two girls leaned against each other, their heads touching.
At the end of the train ride was the future.
In Lu Jing's words, her home was a muddy mess. When she was seven, her hopeless father jumped to his death after his business failed, leaving her and her mother behind.
After that, her mother spent her days drinking and abusing her. She didn't care whether Lu Jing lived or died.
So Lu Jing studied with all her might and got into a high school outside the province.
On the day they submitted their school preferences, she looked at Lin Xinan. "Going to Ningzhong?"
Lin Xinan looked up, smiled, and met Lu Jing's clear eyes.
"I'm going."

Short scenes:
Before
Lin Xinan: Let's be best friends for life, united in revolutionary friendship.

Now
Lu Jing: (A completely unapologetic speech from the flag-raising platform) Finally, I want to say one thing: Lin Xinan, I love you.
Lin Xinan: What happened to never backing down?!
A few words from the author:
Yep, starting a new story.
1. The top (t) and bottom (p) start out as childhood friends and besties, with no romance. They develop feelings later.
2. No cheating or exes.
3. Daily updates Monday through Friday, with weekends off. Bonus chapters may appear at random. I'll let you know if I have to take a break.
4. There are quite a few flashbacks early on.
5. The characters aren't based on anyone in real life, and neither is the story.
6. My writing is at elementary-school level, so proceed with caution qwq
7. This blurb was written on July 7, 2022.
Theme: Head toward the light
