An eighteen-year-old young man, the third son of the Li family, two and a half years younger than Lin Qiyue. He just graduated high school but has no chance to go to university due to lack of recommendation quota. He plans to stay in the village and learn from educated youth at the commune. He is shy and modest. As a child, he threw a tantrum and begged to rescue Lin Qiyue when she was almost sold, sharing a life-or-death bond with her. He stayed behind to cook for his family while the others went to the cooperative.
