📖 Story
A solitary ginkgo tree witnesses three separate yet interconnected human dramas spanning over a century of change and silence. From a woman shattering academic barriers in 1908 to a quiet student discovering connection through forbidden attention in the 1970s, to a Hong Kong neuroscientist seeking answers from a renowned botanist during pandemic isolation in 2020, the Silent Friend remains constant—a living monument to patience, resilience, and the ways love persists even when words fail us completely.
