Lin Che x Zhou Zhilin
What lies between childhood sweethearts and finding their way back to each other?
A childhood friend? First love? A springtime romance? A genius girlfriend? Heroine worship?
A personal preference:
A partner who leads.
She stands there like a flag flying in the wind atop a high ridge.
Meeting at the summit: I'm here. Are you coming?
From then on, your whole world is there to lift you up.
Go on, walk toward her!
The sound of your steps crushing the heavens is the loudest applause she hears as she looks down on the world.
Zhou Zhilin is a woman who stands behind the capital, a true power broker hidden from view, and the goddaughter Lin Che's mother welcomed into the family at a banquet.
She was the genius girlfriend Lin Che secretly competed with in their childhood compound, and the only girl Lin Che ever looked up to as a heroine in her youth.
She was also the only girl Lin Che kissed during those years of youthful glory.
Perhaps she isn't the right answer for Lin Che, but she's surely the exam Lin Che has spent half her life taking.
After years apart, she is Lin Che's white moonlight, newly returned from overseas.
No matter where Lin Che is posted, she's always the youngest head of the local department.
She is the player across the chessboard who always makes the first move against Zhou Zhilin, the brightest and most glaring point of comparison in her life.
And during all those years overseas, she was the breath Zhou Zhilin counted to three before speaking on their long-distance calls.
Perhaps Lin Che was never a variable in Zhou Zhilin's plans, but she is the one margin of error Zhou Zhilin allows in every game of strategy.
After years apart, she is the one light Zhou Zhilin has remained standing still for.
“It's been a long time, Director Zhou.”
“It's been a long time, Lin Che.”
They grew up hand in hand. When they meet again, will their fingertips tremble in that moment of greeting?
If the distance between childhood sweethearts and finding their way back to each other is a pride neither will set aside first, a waiting game and contest between equals,
then I'll make your world lose my gravity, and let you feel a loneliness beyond compare at that so-called summit.
So, what is the moon foreshadowing?
It's the exam she's spent half her life taking, and no less the chess game she's spent half her life setting up.
