The Summer That Makes Your Heart Race

1. At Linjiang No. 1 High School, no one could imagine Min Yanzhou and Ye Qiao ever having anything to do with each other.

Min Yanzhou was the school's celebrated genius, showered with awards in every field. He was handsome, came from a privileged family, and was the first student admitted early to a top university.

Ye Qiao was utterly ordinary, struggling her way up from the bottom.

Rumor had it that they were dating.

At first, everyone thought it was absurd. Then someone saw the pampered Min Yanzhou riding out of a dilapidated residential complex on his expensive, limited-edition mountain bike, which now had a passenger seat.

"I spent an hour making breakfast, and you only took one bite."

The girl stuck out her tongue and hopped onto the bike.

2. Ye Qiao's greatest regret about Min Yanzhou was that she had dragged him down from his pedestal.

Before the college entrance exams, the older girl Ye Qiao idolized took her own life, and the blame fell squarely on the golden boy Min Yanzhou. Ye Qiao was shocked to discover that he was the same person who had rescued her from a group of thugs on a rainy night.

She approached him to achieve her goal, and her intentions were impure.

Even someone as brilliant as Min Yanzhou could be tricked into giving away his heart, lose control for someone, and sacrifice his dazzling future. Yet he remained clear-eyed even as he was intoxicated by love, cherishing her above all else.

On a trip to unwind before the college entrance exams, they lay side by side in the grass, gazing at the timeless stars above.

Ye Qiao casually plucked a flower and offered it to him. "Will you be my boyfriend after the college entrance exams?"

Min Yanzhou didn't take the flower. "Ye, I won't make the same foolish mistake twice."

Ye Qiao smiled ruefully, then lay down on the soft grass and gradually fell asleep.

Unfortunately, she didn't hear the rest of what the boy had to say.

"I don't just want to be your boyfriend. I want your future, your meals through every season. I'll be your knight forever, your devoted servant."

#A story that begins in summer and unfolds in every midsummer.
