When a sudden rebirth brought Shen Rui back to his college days, he realized that fate had given him a second chance to hold the gardenia hand. The past miss was like a thorn, buried deep in his memory, but this time, he no longer chose to remain silent.
When Shen Rui first entered campus, he was faced with a familiar yet unfamiliar past. He was once out of balance between love and reality, but now he is looking for a new fulcrum in his studies, future and relationships. On the one hand, he was facing the increasing pressure of graduation, and on the other hand, he was feeling powerless towards Xia Zhi. Every step he took was like stepping on a tightrope. But when he began to take the initiative to approach her and accompany her through every confusing moment, the gears of fate turned quietly.
The turning point came during a late-night conversation. Shen Rui confessed his feelings and regrets, and for the first time he listened carefully to Xia Zhi's expectations. They are no longer teenagers overwhelmed by emotions, but adults who are willing to start over for each other. But growth always comes at a price - long distances, family opposition, and workplace competition are coming like a tidal wave, and their relationship is on the verge of collapse time and time again.
When reality and ideals collide fiercely, how should humans choose?
