You Are My Grand Flight

"Tomorrow is vivid and real, and there is only one you."

Most people think love at first sight is just being attracted to someone's looks. But how could you bear to give away the person you liked from the very first moment?

Li Xixi always seemed perfectly clearheaded. He had only ever felt a spark for her, never loved her, and never intended to choose her wholeheartedly.

And yet she seemed so confused, because that one moment of attraction kept her trapped for so long.

When the weather turned cold, she reminded him to stay warm. She braved the pouring rain to bring him an umbrella. When she knew he was feeling low, she quietly tried to cheer him up...

It took her a long time to learn that the deep sea cannot be warmed by a cup of boiling water, and his gratitude toward her would never turn into love.

Sadly, love is like multiplication: if either side is zero, the result is zero.

He lowered his eyes, his voice full of guilt and exhaustion. "I'm sorry. I'm really tired right now. I don't want to be in a relationship."

"It's okay. I'll wait for you." She looked at him, her eyes shining, her voice gentle yet certain.

Li Xixi waited a long time for Ou Jinchen. Just when she thought she was close to getting an answer from him, she found out he had a girlfriend.

Only then did Li Xixi finally understand: it wasn't that he didn't want a relationship. He just didn't want one with her.

Perhaps he really had secretly looked at her now and then, but that wasn't love.

This love suspended in midair may never make it across mountains and rivers.
