Those Years, Our Years

In the golden autumn of 2011, on the eve of the opening of the Northern University of the Arts, Lin Yu, a freshman in the Department of Photography, accidentally met Su Wan, a girl from the Department of Oil Painting, on Tieba. The two chatted all night long on QQ and developed a mutual affection for each other. On the first day of school, they met for the first time at the spicy hotpot stall at the school gate, and they became inseparable good friends from then on. During their freshman year, they did charity work, held parties, and visited campus together. Lin Yu used his camera to record Su Wan's every smile, but he never had the courage to say "I like you." In his sophomore year, Lin Yu finally plucked up the courage to confess his love, but learned that Su Wan and her ex-boyfriend Jiang Chen were back together. Deeply hit, Lin Yu deleted all contact information with Su Wan, and the two completely lost contact. During his internship in his junior year, Lin Yu learned that Su Wan had broken up again and got in touch with her again. However, at this time, one of them moved to Beijing and the other returned to his hometown, and they could only look at each other from a distance through the screen. At the graduation party, the two reunited. Su Wan sang a song "Later" at KTV, which made her cry and also broke Lin Yu's heart. In the eight years after graduation, they worked hard individually, experiencing the ups and downs of the workplace, the trials of life, and the test of the epidemic. Accompanying each other during the epidemic allowed the two to see their hearts clearly again. In 2023, Su Wan traveled to Beijing. Lin Yu used all the photos of Su Wan that he had secretly taken over the past 12 years to make a confession to her that was 12 years late. Su Wan finally put aside all worries and agreed to his pursuit. Spanning 12 years and thousands of miles apart, the lovers who had missed each other finally came together, fulfilling the biggest regret in youth.
