Stars and Sea

**"I met you at my most glorious age, but it took me seven years to get you back."** **Zhou Xingchen** is the shining student president in the school. He is cheerful and confident, but feels lonely because of his father's strict expectations. **Chen Haiyang** is a taciturn transfer student from a poor family, but he hides a starry sky in his sketchbook. In her senior year of high school, an accidental encounter caused two parallel lines to intersect - he handed her a candy, saving her from hypoglycemia when she almost fainted; she invited him to join the astronomy club and discovered the vast universe in this taciturn boy's eyes. They kept warm together in a cave during heavy rain, shared the same pair of headphones during the closing music in the library, and held hands for the first time in the corridor of the ward on the eve of the college entrance examination. However, the pressure of reality followed: Chen Haiyang's mother died of illness, and Zhou Xingchen's father threatened to break up with her by severing relations. The two were forced to separate. One went to a prestigious school in the north and the other stayed in the local area. They agreed to live together after graduation. **But the promise of youth is ultimately no match for the cruelty of reality. **In her junior year, Zhou Xingchen's father forcibly sent her abroad and cut off all contact. Chen Haiyang waited to no avail and mistakenly thought he had been abandoned, so he devoted all his energy to his career. Seven years later, they met again at the International Architecture Forum - she was already a well-known architect, and his design studio was somewhat famous. Misunderstandings, questions, rekindling of old relationships... This time, they must face their father's obstruction, the frame-up of business rivals, and the scars left by seven years. **"If the love we had when we were young was not strong enough to fight the world, what about us now?"** From campus to society, from sweetness to sadism, **"Stars and Sea"** tells a love story about growth, separation and reunion. When the stars fall into the deep sea, and when the lonely sea embraces the stars, can they overcome the barrier between reality and time and find the sweetness of the original candy? Purpose: True love is not the fearless passion of youth, but the courage to still choose to grow with each other after being tempered by reality.
