The Long and Short of That Night

At first, this was a story about Shen Yeming, all alone. It wasn't quite a fairy tale, but a novel called "reality." He swallowed the bitter pill early and became one of those so-called "adults" people talked about.

Then, after weathering a storm, he met Ren Shuxia.

Ren Shuxia was the new transfer student and his deskmate. He hadn't been forced to swallow the bitter chocolate that would turn him into an "adult." He was so innocent that Shen Yeming couldn't help but dote on him like a little kid.

Before long, he was making himself at home at Shen Yeming's place...

Years later, Shen Yeming looked back on their first meeting. He knew that from then on, he would never have any regrets, never again be left numb and helpless, and never again have tears of grief fog his glasses. All that would remain was the sweetness of chocolate on his tongue.

They were like roots buried underground, their tendrils entwined.

They were also like branches reaching into the lofty sky, weathering wind and rain together, endlessly.

"I believe your summer will always hang high in the sky, yet remain within reach."

P.S.

* One-on-one, bottom-focused, happy ending. No switching or breaking up. They fall in love at first sight.

* The plot and settings draw on both real life and original fiction. Some things are true, some aren't, so don't take everything too seriously.

* Any quotations, such as lyrics or famous sayings, will be credited in the author's notes.

* The story mainly focuses on everyday school and family life. The author doesn't like writing too much about school.

* The two are often together. Their life includes everyday moments, silliness, excitement, and sorrow.

* My writing pace varies. Sometimes fast, sometimes slow, sometimes warm, sometimes cold. I write as I please and usually update weekly.
