Lin Qi Le, a girl nicknamed Cherry who lives in the mountains of a small town, grew up surrounded by loving and enlightened parents and elders, sincere and lively friends and partners, and familiar and warm plants and trees. Her whole world is so bright that there is no shadow.
When she was nine years old, she met a unique person in her life, Jiang Qiao Xi, a transfer student from the provincial capital. Jiang Qiao Xi is incompatible with everything around him, whether it is his extraordinary mathematical talent, the aura of “genius” he carries, his gloomy and silent personality, or his superior family that hides secrets. Jiang Qiao Xi was as cold and pale as the snow on the mountain, but Lin Ying Tao was like a small flame, persistently warming him, illuminating and accompanying him.
