Do the impulsive, high-spirited feelings of adolescence last as we grow older?
Xu Qingyuan doesn’t know.
Not until she sees her high school desk mate, Lin Shujing, again at the age of twenty-seven.
For Xu Qingyuan, in the first twenty-seven years of her life, Lin Shujing was a good study partner and the most distinctive of all her casual acquaintances.
He was funny and handsome, the dream crush of countless girls at school.
But to Lin Shujing, Xu Qingyuan is a beautiful sight coming toward him against the light, proof that everything good in the world is worth treasuring. Every gesture, every smile, every fleeting expression of hers tugs at his heart.
He has never been absent from Xu Qingyuan’s life, and has done everything he can to keep her safe and at peace.
- “The light will fall on me, and you’ll shine too, Xu Qingyuan.”
- “Okay.”
Theme: Hu Shi once said, “Why fear that truth is endless? Every inch you advance brings an inch of joy.”
