In that old city full of fireworks, 20-year-old Xiaoyou was like a nimble deer. She had just stepped onto the university campus, full of curiosity and longing for the world. The 29-year-old Chen Yu is already the creative director of an advertising company. He has been struggling in the wave of career, mature and stable, but also exhausted.
The two met at a campus recruitment event. Chen Yu came to give a speech as a company representative. Xiaoyou was attracted by his deep eyes and calm temperament, and took the initiative to ask questions. Chen Yu looked at the young and energetic girl in front of him, and felt a different kind of ripple in his heart.
After that, their interactions gradually increased. Chen Yu would share workplace experiences with Xiaoyou in his free time, and Xiaoyou was like a little sun, using her innocence to dispel Chen Yu's work fatigue. Unknowingly, love quietly grew between the two of them. Although the age gap brought some strange eyes, they hugged each other tightly and tried to resist the pressure from the outside world.
However, as time went by, problems gradually emerged. Xiaoyou longs to enjoy her youth on campus, gathering with friends and participating in club activities; but Chen Yu is overwhelmed by work, traveling frequently and dealing with various clients. They spend less and less time together, and the topics no longer fit. Chen Yu had no time to listen to Xiaoyou's interesting campus stories; Xiaoyou found it difficult to understand Chen Yu's workplace affairs.
The conflict broke out after a birthday party carefully prepared by Xiaoyou. That day, Chen Yu missed the appointment due to an urgent project. Xiaoyou waited until late at night, her expectations turning into disappointment and anger. After Chen Yu came back, he explained tiredly, but Xiaoyou felt that he didn't understand at all.
