Second Chances | From school days to the city, the male lead falls in love first
Speech therapist x top-tier star
The first time Su Wenxue met Qin Huai, at the entrance to Xipo Village, she had just transferred from the south to this small county in the northwest. She called out to him through the dust, “Hey, little brother, can you tell me the way?”
He wore a patched gray coat and trudged along with a hundred-jin sack of stones on his back. But when she was about to fall behind, he quietly slowed his steps.
Only later did she learn that the seemingly dull boy was the top science student in his senior year, while she was a liberal arts transfer student who lived with the Qin family and studied music.
He looked down on everyone; she was cheerful and always smiling. They were like ice and fire, thrown together in the same little courtyard.
He thought her brightness was fake. She worried she was a burden to him. Then one day, they discovered they were both southerners trapped in this little county.
The poplars beneath the school building looked cold and gray. Qin Huai suddenly called her name and held out his hand.
She hesitated, then took it, muttering, “Holding hands... it really does feel a little warmer.”
Her hand burned in his grasp, but the one who had set the fire remained completely oblivious.
When the college entrance exam results came out, Su Wenxue chased after his car on her last night in Xipo to claim the gift he had promised her.
He said it wasn't quite ready. She shook her head anxiously. “It's fine if it's only half-finished!”
He leaned down to look at her, the headlights reflected in his eyes. “Three days. Can you give me three more days?”
But in the end, she never got that gift.
She heard he had gone abroad to do research and thought she would never see him again in this lifetime.
Five years later, Su Wenxue suddenly loses her voice just before her world tour concert and is sent back to Xipo's special rehabilitation center.
Amid the falling snow, a car lights up for her. The man who, according to rumor, should have been abroad comes toward her, becoming the speech therapist she must rely on.
“Miss Su,” he says, his voice colder than it was back then.
Su Wenxue lowers her head, barely holding back her tears.
He hands her a pink paper bag, his gaze tracing her face inch by inch. “It's cold here. Whatever happens, please take care of yourself. The rehabilitation center and I will provide you with the best possible care.”
The snow that falls late conceals the words left unsaid back then, and a fire that has never gone out.
