When she was fifteen, one summer, Ye Zhaole saw a school newspaper on the table, left there by her older brother. Bored out of her mind, she picked it up, wanting to see what kind of misleading nonsense he had written.
One page of the newspaper recorded the advice of their outstanding graduating seniors who had gotten into prestigious universities. In the upper-left corner of each piece of advice was a photo ID portrait, each one brimming with youthful spirit.
The moment she picked it up, she glanced over it quickly. Her gaze stopped on just one unfamiliar boy. He was handsome in a delicate way, with a radiant smile. For some reason, he made her heart flutter.
She stared at that photograph for a long, long time, until she forgot why she had picked up the newspaper in the first place.
A girl's first stirrings of love can happen in an instant.
That summer, she learned that the inexplicable feeling was called liking someone. From then on, she had a secret, a secret about that summer.
