[正] They fell in love with each other when they were middle school students, and that was called "puppy love" by others. But ten years later, they actually get married.

注：“早戀”指未成年男女過早地涉足愛情，它一般被認爲是不成熟和不宜提倡的。在英語中，“早戀”的地道說法是 puppy love 或 calf love。如：He is mad about his biology teacher, but it's only puppy love.
