Speaking of Xu Zhili's seventeen-year-old experience, no matter how long it took, she still remembered it vividly.
It was the longest summer she could remember.
In the summer of Sanshui Village, the scorching sun is high and cicadas are chirping in the sky, and the leaves are cutting the sunlight into pieces wantonly.
A tree, a group of people, a town.
And that boy.
During the summer solstice of that year, she stood under the yellow bark tree and asked him: "Are the fruits on this tree edible?"
He smiled and said, "It's edible. It's very sweet." Then he reached out and picked a cluster of yellow-skinned fruits for her.
The hot summer sun was blazing, and she shed tears for the first time because of the fruit, while the mischievous guy beside her laughed and bent over.
At the beginning of the summer of the next year, the college entrance examination ended.
He asked her cautiously: "Zhizhi, come with me."
She smiled and then said: "I will tell you the answer when the yellow-skinned fruits on that tree are ripe."
"Okay." Jiang Yuhuai didn't hesitate. He knew that it would be ready after another week.
But that night, there was a typhoon, and most of the trees were blown down by the wind, and the unripe yellow-skinned fruits were blown all over the ground.
The yellow skin will not be cooked.
The person who said he wanted to give him an answer was never heard from again the next day.
He said he would never trust her again.

We met again after six years.
On the singing stage of Xiao Qing Bar, Xu Zhili was wearing a white dress, her shoulder-length hair was half-tied, with a few strands of hair hanging down, and she was singing with a slight smile on her lips.
In the dark corner, someone's eyes were slightly red.
After the concert, someone was holding Xu Zhili's wrist forcefully outside the bar door.
Xu Zhili seemed to have said something to Jiang Yuhuai, but was silenced by his words.
"Why should I trust you?"
Motto: We will all grow up.
