On a typhoon day in his senior year of high school, Ruan Xingyao ran into Cheng Yezhou's arms with his homework book. The ink bottle shattered on his white school uniform, and the dark blue that spread out seemed like the secrets of the entire deep sea were hidden in his eyes. This boy who always put ham for stray cats in the convenience store would get into fights because others were talking about her, but would avoid her eyes when handing back the wrong question book; he would fill his draft book with sailboats, but would tuck expired tickets in the deepest part of the textbook - it was what his father left for him before he left, leading to the other side that he could never reach.
Ruan Xingyuan counted the butterfly tattoos on the back of his neck and collected a few quotes from his textbook: "Satellites orbit the planet at a distance of 3cm per second" next to the physics formula, and "She wore twin tails today" in the corner of the draft paper. She thought she was the star she was looking up to silently, but she didn't know that as early as late at night when her father was drunk, Cheng Yezhou used the lamp on her window sill as a lighthouse on the navigation chart, folded her soft "come on" into a paper boat, and let it float on the sea called loneliness for the entire youth.
Failure in mock exams, misunderstandings about ferry tickets, and family changes are like a series of typhoons passing through, tearing the minds of young people into pieces. At the graduation ceremony, Ruan Xingyao walked towards him holding the new ferry ticket that he had saved for half a year, but saw Cheng Yezhou standing side by side with the transfer girl, with the blue ink pen she gave him pinned to the second button of the school uniform. After all, she never said, "I bought a new flight to Zhoushan," and he didn't explain that the girl was just an intermediary who helped him contact the mother of an ocean-going crew member.
Ten years later, in a heavy rainstorm at the port, Ruan Xingyao found yellowed draft paper in a junk box, and the crooked small letters under the physical formula finally appeared: "The Doppler effect proves that when I run towards you, my heart beats faster than usual." .3 Seconds." At this moment, the man in the dark trench coat was walking against the light amid the sound of the freighter's whistle. The scars on his wrists flickered in the rain, like the tsunami of their youth that they had never really spoken about.
Purpose: Using the misaligned trajectory of "stars and boats" as a metaphor, it describes the self-salvation of a young man using secret love as a beacon in the lonely deep sea.
