-1960 AD-
There is a girl name Xiu Hua. She is a village girl. Everyday she works under the sunlight. Planting rice, gardening, and raising livestock are her daily jobs. Her family wasn't very rich, so she helped her parents everyday in the fields and garden. Sometimes she also helps her parents go to town and selling stuff that they harvest. Xiu Hua is a calm and strong girl, she is the only child in her family and she is also a filial child. Eventhough she is busy all days, she never stops doing her hobbies, painting, reading, singing and archery are all her favorite stuff. If they have free times, her father sometimes teach her archery. The other time in autumn and winter she spent her free times mostly reading and painting, while in spring singing while working, in summer she goes for archery in the forest with her father.
Xiu Hua loves reading, every winter she goes to school to borrow a full bag of book and giving it back in spring. Over there is the first time she meet with someone so good looking and kind. A teacher, his name is Sun Yunzhi, a guy that Xiu Hua adore a lot. Yunzhi always have a story telling class in school library every week. Xiu Hua starts adoring him for he loves to tell a story beautifully and make it look so realistic. Their first time meeting is when Yunzhi just finished his story telling session. Xiu Hua come closer and introduce herself to him. Unexpectedly he turned out to be very friendly and gentle, and it makes easier for Xiu Hua to get close to him.
Inside the library Xiu Hua and Yunzhi sometimes interact randomly. 32Please respect copyright.PENANAoeqC6VinCL

"I don't know that all this time you suffer a lot. I came today actually to surprise you. I'm gonna propose you, I bring a ring. However... I'm too late. I wish I could turn back time and bring over all the memories. I remember when you said that you will always here when I comeback... You are here, but we both are living in different realms. My last wish is to hold you in my arms once more... However, I can only hug the tombstone and your photo.. I regret every months that has passed without you here with me... But I wish you find your own your happiness up there, even without me beside you.." Mumble Yunzhi.
