They first met in the summer after the high school entrance exam, when Lin Changqing just barely got into Dongxu.
“Excuse me, where do the new students report?”
“There’s a list up ahead with everyone’s class assignment.”
She went to her classroom and sat in the only empty seat left. The two of them stared at each other in disbelief, then blurted out in unison:
“You?”

The school handed out forms for students to choose their academic track. The classes were assigned the night before summer vacation. Lin Changqing chose the humanities track, while Lu Zhiyao chose the science track and stayed in the original class.

The last time they saw each other was at the school’s coming-of-age ceremony. Later, Lu Zhiyao skipped the college entrance exam and went to Edinburgh in the UK, while Lin Changqing went to Peking Union Medical College. Shang Tianzhen and He Xi got together. The boy met a girl named Zhong Wuyou, and the girl also received a serialized love letter written by Ji Ran.

In December 2021, Lin Changqing fell ill and was hospitalized. Ji Ran and Shen Yanzhi took turns looking after her.
In January 2022, Lin Changqing was diagnosed with COVID-19. One day, at five in the morning, she quietly passed away.
[Extra]
Lin Changqing jolted awake and discovered that she had transmigrated to a parallel world. It was 2024, and today was the day she graduated from her senior year of college.
After leaving campus, she flew home with Ji Ran. Beyond the plane window, the orange-pink sunset melted into the clouds like a surging sea.
At nine o’clock sharp, the young friends reunited, tipsy and laughing together in the evening breeze. The tears came faster than the memories.
Lin Changqing downed the drink in front of her. Lu Zhiyao was handing a skewer of meat to his girlfriend beside him. Let the person you loved in your youth stay where they belong, in the past.
As for now, the girl looked up in a daze, her gaze fixed on Ji Ran’s profile.
That night, Ji Ran saw her safely home and gave her the last letter, number one hundred.
Your best friend is by your side, and the one you love is across from you.
