The old woman, Lady Evorton, has been married and divorced three times. A drama actor who has been forgotten by the stage, she once played a soap opera "Navigation Giant" for a living. She was stubborn, destitute, lonely, and self-indulgent.
The little boy class is seventeen years old, and is dubbed by the old woman as a homosexual who is not curious about anything. Shy, introverted, lonely, and not good at words, she inherited the silence of the pastor's father to a certain extent, and on the one hand, it was all thanks to her suspicious, sensitive, selfish and dominant mother.

But the trip to Edinburgh made him gradually forget the circle of bondage and indifference, meeting girls of the same age, drinking for the first time, kissing for the first time, having sex for the first time. experience.
When we sit in front of the screen, we are also implicated by words, back to our seventeen years old.
In the self-study class, I copied the poems of Xu Zhimo, Shelley, and Pushkin into a small notebook and read them repeatedly. He also instigated HY to skip class with me, just to copy and recite the prose poems he thought were excellent. Oh, forgive me, I fanatically admired Xi Murong in high school.
