On the day the college entrance exam results came out, Zhou Ran received a message from her childhood sweetheart, whom she hadn't seen in five or six years. It was a screenshot of the admission results from the prestigious 985 university in Zhou Ran's city.
[Li Xin: I got in.]
[Zhou Ran: Congratulations! Welcome to G City! You can come hang out with me anytime!]
[Li Xin: What about you? Where did you get in?]
[Zhou Ran: I'm going to Z Province, to my beloved Jiangnan!]
[Li Xin: That's great. Congratulations.]
[Zhou Ran: Hahaha, congratulations to you too!]
No one knew that during all the days Zhou Ran was away, Li Xin struggled again and again, like a trapped beast, unable to break free.
[Bonus Scene]
One day, Zhou Ran remembered something from childhood and laughed. "I still remember when our teacher asked what you and I were to each other. You said you didn't know, only that I was your neighbor and our houses were close together. Hahaha, you were so serious about it back then. It was hilarious."
"I only remember how cute you looked when you laughed," Li Xin said, putting an arm around Zhou Ran's shoulders.
Luckily, you're still by my side.
