At that innocent age, Ling Nian, sweet, carefree, and a little well-behaved, met Yu Wang, who was cold, quiet, and liked being alone. Ling Nian fell for him as soon as they met, and stayed in love with him for a long, long time.
After two years of secret love, they finally got together. Five years of being together ended because of a misunderstanding, and after they parted, they never met again. Ling Nian waited two years for Yu Wang, but all that longing went unanswered.
After several breakups and reconciliations, and the hurt caused by her family, Ling Nian developed depression. In the end, unable to bear the pain, she jumped into the river and took her own life. Yu Wang saw her again in the news: a university graduate in Nanlin City had jumped into the river and died because of heartbreak. Yu Wang's arrival had brought a glimmer of light into Ling Nian's life, but even that last straw had been crushed. Ling Nian still could not let go.

"Yu Wang, please love me a little longer in our next life."

"When I was fourteen, in the summer, I met the boy who knitted me a scarf."
-
"I will love you forever, my boy. The autumn leaves stop here. They have all scattered."
Theme: I hope your love isn't one-sided
