Sensitive, gentle girl × wanton promotion of academic dominance
"It turns out that it's so easy to tell if you like someone."
"You are not in unrequited love, we are going in both directions."
——It turns out that for people who are slow to warm up, their tenderness is hidden in the details.
Lin Xuzhi, a sensitive and introverted girl, has a secret that no one knows - she has been secretly in love with Chen Rangyan, a popular figure on campus, for three years. Every time they met in the library, she would only dare to peek at his focused side face through the gap in the bookshelf; every time he came closer, her heartbeat would be so loud that the whole classroom could hear it.
A sudden rainstorm brought a turning point. When Chen let Yan rush into the library wet, unexpectedly sat across from her and left behind her student ID card, Lin Xuzhi finally found a reason to talk to him. The day she timidly returned her student ID card, she didn't know what the shining light in Chen Rangyan's eyes meant, nor did she know that he had already noticed this girl who was always reading quietly in the corner.
A joint project between the literary club and the photography club bound them together. In the days of preparing for the campus cultural exhibition, Lin Xuzhi discovered that Chen Rangyan remembered every book she mentioned casually; Chen Rangyan was pleasantly surprised by what kind of splendid world hidden in the writings of this seemingly timid girl. When Lin Xuzhi stayed up late looking for out-of-print books for him, and when Chen let Yan's camera always catch her profile by "coincidence", everyone saw the clues - except themselves.
The pressure of the senior year of high school, sudden family changes, loss of the game and confused confession during high fever caused two cautious hearts to miss each other again. Until the day of the graduation ceremony, Lin Xuzhi took the secret love diary of the past three years, Chen Yanyan held her favorite out-of-print book and a photo album full of her profile, and said those words at the same time at the door of the library where they first met: "I like you."
It turns out that the most cowardly secret love is a two-way love between two people.
