The chirping of cicadas tears through the midsummer, and the sun shines over the Wutong Road of Yuncheng Middle School, and also over the thoughts that young Shen Yi'an has been hiding for three years.
He is an ordinary and gentle young man among the crowd, but his eyes are always chasing the person standing in the light - Jiang Qingci. Jiang Qingci is the flower of the high mountains that the whole school looks up to. She is cold and taciturn, and her grades are firmly at the top of the list. She is like the brightest star in summer, out of reach. Shen Yi'an put his love into every deliberate encounter, every page of draft paper with his name written on it, and every good night that he dared not say out loud, being cautious and not daring to disturb him.
From the beginning of summer to the end of summer, from the classroom to the playground, from the afternoon in the library to the evening breeze of self-study, the young man's heartbeat grows wildly amidst the chirping of cicadas. They worked on questions together, took shelter from the rain together, and walked together on the playground on a summer night. The ice in Jiang Qingci's eyes gradually melted, revealing his only tenderness to Shen Yi'an. They held hands in a deserted corner and embraced each other under the moonlight, thinking that this summer would be hot forever, thinking that this love could break through all obstacles.
But worldly prejudice, family pressure, and rumors from others, like a sudden rainstorm, extinguished the light of midsummer. Jiang Qingci's family could not accept this relationship, and forced him to pursue his studies and future, trapping him in a cage called "rules." Under endless waiting and pressure, Shen Yian's spirit gradually collapsed, and he was sent to a psychiatric ward, struggling with drugs and pain.
They tried to escape and embraced each other on the beach in the early morning, thinking they could run towards freedom, but in the end they could not escape the shackles of fate. That summer, they loved passionately and painfully. Jiang Qingci was forced to compromise, and Shen Yian reached the end in despair.
The sound of cicadas gradually subsides, and the summer wind turns cooler.
Three years of secret love, a passionate love in midsummer, finally ended in the rain at the end of summer.
The young man's heartbeat could not be expressed in words after all;
Their summer will always stop at that midsummer that can never go back.
Summer love begins with the chirping of cicadas and ends with rain falling, leaving only endless regrets and longings that echo repeatedly in every summer to come.
Concept: The young man's heartbeat will never be expressed.
