Lin Ting first met Song Nanyu at a graduation exhibition. His trendy style of dress stood in stark contrast to the traditional Chinese painting gallery.
Song Nanyu, meanwhile, thought Lin Ting had been sent by his teacher to “enlighten” him.
By chance, Lin Ting gave one of Song Nanyu’s paintings a name.
Then, on a snowy night, the two became “partners” because of a little dog.
One day, Song Nanyu suddenly looked at her with a deep, sincere gaze. “I like you. I’m going to pursue you.”
She leaned closer, raised an eyebrow, and smiled. “You... don’t have much of a chance.”
“The little dog doesn’t understand why I’m unhappy, but it’ll stay by my side.”
“The little dog doesn’t understand, but I do. I’ll stay by your side too.”
In the depths of winter, I finally learned... that within me there is an invincible summer.
After they parted that day, they never saw each other again.
Still, Lin Ting often received handwritten letters signed by a stranger. Every one of them began with the same words.
I hope this letter finds you well. How have you been lately? I’m doing fine, but I find myself thinking of you from time to time...
Theme: Live well.
