Gu Zhi is a dead tree, its roots are rooted in the barren soil, its branches are cracked, and its bark is peeling off. He was used to being torn apart by the cold wind, used to being trampled by passers-by, used to rotting alone in an unnoticed corner.
Until Xu Huaixing broke into his wilderness - he was like an unexpected spring rain, like the morning light at dawn, like all the gentle miracles that Gu Zhi could not even imagine. The young man approached with great vitality, stroked his cracked bark with his fingertips, and said with a smile: "You are more beautiful than them all."
In the previous life, the spring rain finally stopped.
Xu Huaixing was born to belong to the wilderness, to the stars, and to the distance that will never stop. But Gu Zhi could only stay rooted in place, desperately absorbing the warmth with every hug, and hearing the desperate snapping sound of his own dry branches every time they parted.
Gu Zhi stayed at the age of nineteen forever. He followed the river to see all the places he had never been before.
Fate changed, Xu Huaixing woke up in the first autumn.
One is trying desperately to get closer, while the other is stubbornly running away. Until Gu Zhi discovered that what Xu Huaixing had on his phone was not a game guide, but a "code of companionship for depression."
The dead tree will eventually come into spring, but love is the silent rain.
- Gloomy, low self-esteem, depression attack × Rebirth, awakening and deep feelings
- Dual timeline interweaving.
Concept: The essence of love is to make up for mistakes or accept imperfections
