[Mutual healing] [Mutual pining] [School life] [Cool, aloof top student x gentle girl]
When the monthly exam results came out, Rong Chun had only slipped a little. Still, she knew her family would scold her again, so she walked unusually slowly on her way home from school.
It happened to be raining that day. Rong Chun ran along miserably, when an umbrella suddenly appeared above her head.
Zhou Yuedong held it in his pale, cool fingers. His expression was distant as he said, "Let's walk together."
"Thank you."
Rong Chun didn't dare get too close to him, and instinctively moved away.
Before long, Zhou Yuedong suddenly tugged at her uniform sleeve. She was pulled against his firm arm. His voice was cool, almost teasing. "Keep dodging me, and I'll end up soaked."
She looked up and saw that most of the umbrella was tilted over her.

On a bitterly cold snowy night, Rong Chun went to return his notebook of mistakes.
The door opened, spilling dim light into the hall. His eyes were bloodshot, and broken glass lay scattered on the floor behind him. Without showing much emotion, he took the notebook and was about to close the door.
Rong Chun worked up the courage to ask, "Can I help you clean this up? Just to thank you for lending me your notebook for so long."
A lonely family portrait sat on the table. Only then did Rong Chun realize that Zhou Yuedong, too, had a bitter winter night he could not get through.
The next day, she secretly slipped a box of bandages into his desk drawer.

Zhou Yuedong always ranked first in the grade. Cool and taciturn, he was often teased as an untouchable flower on a high peak.
No one would ever think to connect him with Rong Chun.
The night before graduation, Rong Chun cried all night.
But at dusk, beneath an orange-red sky, everyone was signing one another's uniforms as keepsakes. Zhou Yuedong signed the back of Rong Chun's uniform. When she got home and examined it closely, she noticed a few tiny words beneath his name.
"May your future be bright. I love you."

Zhou Yuedong had a secret.
Whenever that day of winter arrived, he couldn't stop thinking of that girl. Again and again, in careful handwriting, he wrote her name in his notebook.
Her name was lovely.
Like the toon tree in spring.
Please believe that no winter is impossible to get through.
