The July sea breeze carried the fragrance of platycodon flowers and spread over the soft white sand where Lin Yutang stood. She looked at the direction where Lu Yanqiu's slender figure disappeared into the laboratory, and her fingertips unconsciously rubbed the hand-painted platycodon specimens in the side pocket of her schoolbag that were ready to be given to him - a flower with a short flowering period, which she had used a special technique to frame, as if she had hidden her secret love throughout high school, and wanted to use this summer to let her heart "year after year" spread from the throbbing in the corner of the campus to the courage to stand side by side with him.
Zhou Nan counted the number of times Lin Yutang revised the exercise book for Lu Yanqiu from the back window of the classroom. Chen Zhenghao passed by with a basketball in his arms, breaking through his hidden sourness; Shen Qingmiao wrote all this into a fragment of a healing novel, but Xu Yichen accidentally revealed the passion hidden in the "academic discussion" when Lu Yanqiu looked at Lin Yutang during the debate competition. When the platycodon flowers gradually wither at the end of September, and the ginkgo trees on campus begin to turn yellow, this story about secret love and pursuit, in the name of youth, allows those thoughts hidden in the beach walks, notes between classes, and the aroma of specimens to break free from the constraints of the "flowering period" and slowly turn into a two-way sweetness over the years.
Purpose: Platycodon flowers only bloom from July to September, but my feelings for you are year after year.
