[The only time he was brave in his youth was treated by her as a joke in front of the whole class.
Fang Shujin always felt that Ke Jiaheng was a weirdo.
He was silent and gloomy, a vague shadow in the back row of the classroom.
But he always happened to bring an extra umbrella, and he would conveniently place a White Rabbit toffee on the corner of her table.
Everyone saw through his secret except her.
——In other words, except for the truth that was about to come out that she deliberately ignored.
On graduation night, the truth or dare pointer pointed at him.
Amidst the cheers, Ke Jiaheng walked up to her, his eyes so hot that they seemed to be burning.
Fang Shujin panicked and extinguished his flames in public with a light joke:
"Wow, Ke Jiaheng, your acting skills are good!"
At that moment, she saw the stars in his eyes suddenly fall.
Later, they went their separate ways.
Later, she finally understood that the burning love that no one knew about when she was young had already condensed into a scab called regret that would never fade under her unintentional words.
Many years later, at a class reunion, he attended with his family and his smile was gentle and distant.
Friends joked about that time when he took a sip of wine and said:
"Oh, that... I'm young and ignorant."
Fang Shujin looked at him and suddenly understood everything.
It turned out that some wounds seemed to be healed, but they had just changed their way and settled permanently in his heart.
Intention: May someone love you forever
