Lin Wanxing, a 28-year-old urban white-collar worker, couldn't afford to rent an apartment in the city after being laid off by his company, so he moved into an old residential building on the outskirts of the city. The landlady is a kind Northeastern aunt who always says she wants to introduce someone to her. But Lin Wanxing never expected that the son Gu Huai, whom the landlady said was "study abroad for a PhD and very outstanding", turned out to be the stepbrother of her ex-boyfriend Jiang Chen, whom she had an affair with in college.
What's even more embarrassing is that Gu Huai returned to China. Live upstairs.
Lin Wanxing vowed to pretend that he never knew him. After all, that relationship ended so embarrassingly back then. But she forgot that Gu Huai was not only Jiang Chen's stepbrother, but also the "boy with glasses" whom she met three times in the library when she was in college, and each time he borrowed the same unpopular novel.
Gu Huai remembered her. Always remember.
