“You're so amazing.” “Wow.” “How did you learn to do that?”
Back in school, these were the three things Bai Rian'an said most often to Ruan Fengyi.
Ruan Fengyi: “You're annoying.”
Bai Rian'an: “Teach me, please~”
-
“If you score at least ten points above the passing mark in every humanities subject, I'll say yes.”
On the eve of the college entrance exams, Bai Rian'an's confession threw Ruan Fengyi off balance. It didn't affect his exams, but his heart was in turmoil.
-
“I missed the mark in politics by one point.” Bai Rian'an knew he hadn't met the condition, but he also knew Ruan Fengyi liked him, so he thought it would be all right.
-
“One point is still too much. Don't come looking for me again.”
After that, he never saw Ruan Fengyi again. He'd thought Ruan Fengyi had simply changed his mind at the last minute. They'd gotten along so well, and they both understood how the other felt.
He thought, Fine, let it be. I'll just assume he was a jerk.
But his heart wouldn't let it go.
-
At night, Bai Rian'an hugged his pillow and couldn't stop crying as he called Ruan Fengyi's name. He wanted to know how Ruan Fengyi was doing, anything at all.
On the other side, Ruan Fengyi's tears had dried up. He couldn't cry anymore.
-
When they met again, they were both brave enough to face each other.
Opening that old book again, they found a young man's high spirits, a love he could barely conceal, hopes for the future, defiance in the face of hardship, and the secret that the two of them had finally come to terms with.
.
Note! Fengyi isn't really hung up on that one point! It'll be explained in the story. Xiao Yi is a very generous boy~
