At twenty, Zhang Jusong decided to 'lie flat' (give up trying hard).
Group projects were fine as long as they were done, no matter how her group members messed around; her GPA was fine as long as it was passable, no matter how much money national or school awards offered; papers were fine as long as they passed, no matter if they could be published or not.
She'd just muddle through life like this, anyway, there was nothing she could do. With luck, maybe she'd die tomorrow.
Until one day, a young man appeared in her barren life, and firmly told her:
Your existence is the only light in the dark night.
At eighteen, Xia Zhiheng's birthday wish was related to Zhang Jusong.
After a long time, he slowly walked towards his morning star.
But when he finally traversed mountains and rivers to reach her, he found that—his star seemed to no longer believe it could shine.
"The moon does not know her quiet serenity and purity, nor does she even know she is the moon." —Borges
