牵引

by 六盲星

那年的许汀白，一朝被命运夺走一切。 留给他的只有一个支离的家，和一双失去神采的眼眸。 独自蜷缩在漆黑的角落里舔舐伤口，直到她莽撞地闯入。 十六岁的女孩对着蜡烛认真许愿：“我就这一个愿望，我要许汀白能看见我。” 她笨拙地希望，自己专注于一点，老天就不会摇摆，也能听得更明白。 经年辗转，再相遇时，一切如她所愿。 小王子的眼眸里重新有了神采，从此便只装得下她一个人—— “我做的所有努力，最终只是想再见到你、照顾你。我知道，十六岁的林清乐已经长大了，她很优秀，不需要别人照顾。但我还是想让她给我一点机会，我想要跟以前一样，把她留在我身边。” 你是前方旌旗，是护我羽翼， 纵然眼前世界缤纷绚丽，我也只愿奔向你。

[Katsumi · Rating 4 out of 5]

Lin Qingle, the daughter of a criminal, endures relentless bullying and shame throughout her childhood. In that darkness, only Xu Tingbai reaches out, stubbornly insisting she join him to play.
What made the relationship so touching was how the male protagonist never treated her differently. 
He gave her compassion when nobody else would, and you can completely understand why she carried that memory with her for years.

Then she comes back at sixteen and finds out he’s gone blind, and suddenly this boy who once protected her is now the one shutting himself away from the world.He loses everything overnight, even his eyesight. And then comes Lin Qingle, barging into his life with her fierce determination, refusing to let him drown in darkness. His entire world narrows to one purpose: to become worthy of her. She becomes his reason to keep living.

Still, the simplicity of the story is part of its charm. It’s not trying to be overly angsty or psychologically heavy. At its core, it’s just about two wounded people growing up, finding each other again and again, and slowly becoming each other’s safe place.
