Yan Tingyue has a secret - he has a crush on his childhood sweetheart Xie Jin'en, from his childhood to his youth.
She is the top student who always stands in the center of the podium, and her name is engraved at the top of the honor list; he is at the bottom of the second examination room and is not qualified to be in the same frame as her. Until one summer when cicadas were chirping noisily, Yan Tingyue suddenly found that she began to greedily want more:
From the second examination room to the first examination room, from the seventh or eighth place to the top twenty. He tried his best to shorten the distance between the two names on the list, just to stand side by side with her under the same light.
From the school uniform to the wedding dress, from the honor list to the marriage certificate, from 'childhood sweethearts' to 'a perfect match' - it turns out that the longest confession is to silently transform yourself into someone who can match her.
——You are my thoughts written on the honor list year after year.
