So many years have passed since then, yet He Zhilan still remembers the first time she laid eyes on Lin Deng.
It was at Capital University, in her dorm room. Lin Deng was like a sun, possessing a kind of infectious brightness, and would sincerely say "thank you" to her, while affectionately coaxing Granma Gu in the way one would indulge a child.
But now, looking at Lin Deng, even though he never shows it, everyone knows that his world is now shrouded in gray. He can't find his way out, nor does he have someone to guide him out.
From then on, he shut the door to his own world.
Lin Deng is proud, as he should be. He was born into a prestigious family, always living in luxury, never suffering any hardship. He himself is extraordinarily outstanding. He, like He Teng, is an exceptional soldier, and he has every right to be proud.
Yet it is this pride that forces him to endure silently, which means he will never show an ounce of weakness to anyone.
Not even to his closest friends.
