The story begins with a chance encounter.
Across the counter, Song Zhiyi looked at the boy in front of her. Her voice carried a smile, but her words weren't exactly polite. "You can't buy cigarettes, kid."
The boy said nothing. He paid and left.
Later, in a hospital room, Song Zhiyi learned the boy's name.
His name was Zhou Xuyan.
*
Keeping a secret close, Song Zhiyi approached Zhou Xuyan.
She smiled at him, treated him well, and even endured hostility and harassment for his sake.
But she had an ulterior motive.
That's why she never imagined she and Zhou Xuyan could have a future together.
But no one can control how many things begin. For example, drawing a relationship to a close.
*
"Everyone is an island."
Zhou Xuyan had always believed that.
He watched people approach him and then leave, coldly keeping himself apart from the crowd.
Until Song Zhiyi burst into his world.
At first, Zhou Xuyan didn't really like Song Zhiyi.
She drew close to him as if she knew best, affecting him and seeping into his life bit by bit, like a fine drizzle.
It annoyed him.
Zhou Xuyan thought he ought to be annoyed by Song Zhiyi.
But that day, beneath a solitary streetlight and in the pouring rain, he looked into Song Zhiyi's tearful eyes.
A man whose vocabulary had never included the word "compromise" chose to give in at last.
Only then did Zhou Xuyan suddenly realize that his heart, long since withered, had begun beating again without his noticing, all because Song Zhiyi was there.
And it beat only for her.
