There Was a Lot of Noise, I Looked at Him Again

When the crowd was bustling, I only dared to peek at him. Five years later, the noise is still there, but I can finally take another look at it calmly. Seventeen-year-old Wen Qingqing fell in love with Wu Shaoxin at first sight beside the noisy playground. He is the always shining presence in the center of the crowd, and she is the quietest bystander outside his world. All her courage was just enough to peek at him through the loudspeaker every time there was a lot of noise. Until that evening, she saw him with her own eyes on the rooftop, putting on headphones for another girl with a gentle smile - at that moment, the noise in the world suddenly faded away for her. This secret love that no one knew about seemed to end like this. But Wen Qingqing chose a more decisive path: she refined the name "Wu Shaoxin", along with all the sourness and unwillingness, into fuel for progress. When he played basketball, she won the speech championship; when he was recommended to a prestigious school, she became a dark horse in the college entrance examination. In five years, she transformed from a timid bystander to the protagonist of her own life. Five years later, the class reunion was brightly lit and still full of people. Wu Shaoxin is still outstanding, but he is no longer the only light source in her memory. As the audience applauded him, her eyes fell on him again. No palpitations, no waves, just a clear calm. It turns out that true relief does not mean forgetting that amazing light in youth. But when I myself am bright enough, I can finally express my gratitude for having used your light to illuminate my path forward.
