She once held a scalpel to cut open life and death, and now holds a pen to sign a multi-million contract. The neon lights of the entire city can be seen outside the floor-to-ceiling windows of the top-floor office. Inside the floor-to-ceiling windows of the seaside villa, the sound of waves always fills the late night breath.
Jin Mao's French was mixed with Chinese, and the final sound was wrapped around her neck like a tide that has not faded: "Sister's bed is more addictive than the Seine."
The coffee Lin Yang handed her was always hot, his fingertips hung half an inch from her sleeves, and the admiration in his eyes was brighter than the CBD lights.
When Ruan Yin's fist hit the wall, her joints turned white. She turned around but still knelt down, letting her leather shoes run over the back of her hand.
It wasn't until Qingwan came back with the African sunshine and windy sand that she was shocked to realize that there was always a swing waiting on the terrace of the old house where jasmine was planted.
Little Nian Gao's first "Mom" made Jin Mao's eyes turn red, Qingwan wetted her temples, and Lin Yang's hand hiding the longevity lock trembled.

The scalpel can cut open the flesh, but it cuts away the obsessions that are constantly entangled; the shopping mall calculates the pros and cons, but it cannot penetrate the redness at the end of Jin Mao's eyes, the softness between Qingwan's eyebrows, and the warmth of Xiaoduanzi's fingers clenched tightly.
The waves always hit the reef, and the reef eventually catches the waves.
She thought she was the shore that controlled the tide, but it turned out that she had become an island besieged by them.
