A Leather Jacket Warms the Rest of Life
Thirty-five years ago, He Yuanzhou, a boy from a remote mountain village, walked fifteen li along a mountain road to register at No. 1 Middle School. His family could only scrape together 24 yuan, leaving him short of half his tuition and facing the prospect of dropping out. At Anping Ferry, amid the endless autumn rain, Su Maimiao saw him shivering in his thin clothes. She draped her father's old black leather jacket over his shoulders and secretly paid the remaining 24 yuan of his tuition at the registration office, saving his chance to continue his education. During high school, they became deskmates and supported each other. On the school playground, He Yuanzhou made her a promise: no matter where Su Maimiao might be in the future, he would surely return to find her.

Tiga puluh lima tahun lalu, He Yuanzhou, seorang pemuda dari kampung terpencil di kawasan pergunungan, berjalan kaki sejauh lima belas li melalui jalan pergunungan untuk mendaftar di Sekolah Menengah No. 1. Keluarganya hanya mampu mengumpulkan 24 yuan, masih kekurangan separuh daripada yuran pengajian, sehingga dia terpaksa berdepan kemungkinan berhenti sekolah. Di Jeti Anping, dalam hujan musim luruh yang turun tanpa henti, Su Maimiao melihatnya menggigil kesejukan dengan pakaian yang terlalu nipis. Dia menyarungkan jaket kulit hitam lama milik ayahnya ke bahu pemuda itu, kemudian secara senyap-senyap membayar baki yuran pengajian sebanyak 24 yuan di kaunter pendaftaran, demi menyelamatkan peluang He Yuanzhou untuk meneruskan pelajaran. Ketika di sekolah menengah, mereka menjadi rakan semeja dan saling menyokong. Di padang sekolah, He Yuanzhou berjanji kepadanya bahawa tidak kira di mana Su Maimiao berada pada masa hadapan, dia pasti akan kembali mencarinya.
