Her Answer Is Written in Sorrow

On the first day of their freshman year of high school, Zheng Junhong falls in love at first sight with the school beauty, Qiu Yingying. Everyone in their grade knows he is pursuing her. He brings her breakfast every day, waits outside her classroom, and even gets into fights for her. But Qiu Yingying is always cool toward him. “We’re only freshmen. We should focus on our studies.” The delinquent Wang Jun mocks him for thinking a toad can eat swan meat, while the two supporting male characters, Cai Sida and Cai Yicai, watch with amusement from the sidelines. Even senior student Wang Guangmei tells him to give up. “Qiu Yingying only cares about getting into Tsinghua.” Then, one day, during a torrential downpour, Zheng Junhong realizes he left his umbrella behind and returns to the classroom. There he finds Qiu Yingying alone, slumped over her desk. Her shoulders are trembling, and her notebook is soaked with tears. One name fills every page: The very last person he would ever have expected.
