The couple of Yu Shuisheng now spends more than half of their time outside of home.
Suizi's family lives in the old courtyard, which feels somewhat empty.
After tidying up, the young couple rides their bicycles and leaves home.
He rides a bike with her, going through spring, summer, autumn, and winter, as they have done for the past four years.
"After the summer vacation, you won't be able to take me on the bike anymore," Suizi looks up at the blue sky, her words carrying a hint of melodramatic sadness.
He has graduated, but she hasn't finished her studies yet.
"Hmm. By then, I'll be driving you to and from school. I've thought about the routes: I'll pick up the kids first, then wait for Jiaojiao at the school gate, and finally pick you up."
"...Can't you just let me revel in a bit of sadness?" Suizi's intentional melodrama was easily unveiled by him, leaving her feeling quite unfulfilled.
