When she was seventeen years old, Zhou Shijia had a secret, that is, she had always liked her good friend Qin Xu.
They met on a boring evening. That day, Zhou Shijia lost the game again and sat exhausted at the door of the subway station.
At that time, she was so embarrassed that she even felt that playing the piano was meaningless. But Qin Xu squatted in front of her as if he had found a treasure, and told her with great treasure: "Hello, my name is Qin Xu."
"Although it's very presumptuous, I want to tell you that I really liked the song "Fantasia" you played at the festival."
At first, Zhou Shijia felt puzzled. It was obviously a weird and boring piece, but why Qin Xu said he liked it very much. Later, Zhou Shijia couldn't help but wonder if she liked "Fantasia", then one day she might fall in love with the same boring self as more than a friend.
Unfortunately, reality is not a fantasy.
And she would repeatedly dream about Qin Xu's last words to her many years later: "Zhou Shijia, why do you think I like girls?"

Zhou Shijia once again played "Fantasia" in front of everyone in a solo concert eight years later.
After finishing his busy schedule, Zhou Shijia took the time to return to his hometown where he had been away for a long time. She originally thought she would never interact with Qin Xu again, but she didn't expect that after agreeing to her friend's request to take in a roommate, the person who opened the door was a pale and thin Qin Xu.
The moment he saw her, Qin Xu's face was filled with fear and surprise, so Zhou Shijia opened the door and left without stopping.
She thought Qin Xu was afraid that she would bring up old things again, but in fact, what Qin Xu was afraid of was that Zhou Shijia discovered the secret she packed in her luggage - it was a handbook filled with ticket stubs from all Zhou Shijia's concerts in the past four years.
That was Qin Xu's love that he didn't dare to express openly and even did not hesitate to deceive her.
"Jiajia, I don't dare to tell you. I'm afraid that those confessions will become a way for me to beg for mercy from you."
"Qin Xu, I will not pity you. I will be your confidence and love you more than you imagine."
