You Are Unlike Anyone Else
Chi Yi secretly hid a boy in her heart for nine years. During class breaks, she would deliberately take a longer route to pass by his classroom. She would feel lost if she couldn't spot him, yet she fled in panic whenever he caught her looking.
She remembered the books he loved to read and felt joy simply because the number on the back of his jersey sounded like her name. Even hearing others mention him was enough to bring her happiness.
His name was Jiang Sui—sui as in "may everything go as you wish" (wanshi suiyi).
When he shone brightly, she was a silk-cotton tree silently guarding by his side; when fate played tricks on him, she dragged his dream along as she moved forward.
To outsiders, he was merely the backdrop of her story, unaware that he held first place in her brilliant youthful memories.
Many years later, when the two reunited in a foreign land, Jiang Sui still stood where everyone's gazes converged, while Chi Yi had developed her own charm, her heart still beating wildly for him as before.
Faced with his relentless pursuit, she was long ready to surrender without resistance. Yet he meticulously planned and advanced step by step, fully intent on making up for the regret of those lost nine years. It turned out that during the quietly passing years, his heart had also fluttered for her—
"By the time I realized I liked you, it had already become an established fact."
