One day, as Chu Jinning was coming downstairs,
she met a pair of beautiful yet numb eyes.
A tall, thin boy stood in the middle of the first-floor living room, wearing clothes washed so many times they had faded white.
His skin was so pale it seemed translucent, and he looked frail.
Chu's father smiled and called her down, introducing him: "This is the student we've chosen to sponsor, Ren Yan."
--"I watched you, trying to learn from you how to love myself, but before I could succeed, I fell in love with you first."
