Lin Jiaqi and Li Jingye were high school best friends who shared every secret through exchange diaries—they promised to go to Beijing to see snow, even writing "Next winter, let's step on snow and eat rock sugar haws" at the end of their diaries. But a week before the college entrance exam, Li Jingye suddenly disappeared, leaving only half a diary with a crying face. Ten years later, Lin Jiaqi became a magazine editor and received an anonymous submission—it was the continuation of their old diary. It turned out Li Jingye was diagnosed with leukemia back then and ran away to avoid burdening her friend. When Lin Jiaqi rushed into the hospice ward, Li Jingye was touching the creases of the old diary. As they tremblingly flipped through the yellowed pages, the unspoken "I'm afraid of losing you" and "I miss you so much" finally turned into tears falling on the diary during their last hug.
