The green bean popsicles in 1998, the out-of-control water splash in the swimming pool in 2010, the footprints on the first snow in Hokkaido in 2023 - some fate, it took eighteen years to give up the answer.
When ten-year-old Su Wan rescued the lost Lin Shen, she never thought that this dusty Ultraman card would become an anchor of time. Years later, after repeatedly failing in exams, she flopped into a "merry-go-round" in the swimming pool. Lin Shen, a handsome young man, reached out to pick her up. The moment his fingertips brushed against her ankle, the words "Girl, I will teach you" were caught off guard and opened the memory gate.
He stayed with her until late at night, chewing on exam textbooks and hiding strawberry cakes on the balcony; she listened to him talk about the difficult problems in the physics competition and watched him gobble them up at the rice noodle stall. The cross-border commitment during the graduation season was diluted by jet lag. She experienced the breakdown of her marriage and queued up at the hospital alone with her feverish twins in her arms. He transformed in a foreign country and became the president of the Lin family in suits and ties.
The ingenious rescue of the 170,000 car repair fee, eight years of notes hidden in the exam notes, the unchanging light in his eyes when they reunited on a rainy night... When the dusty plain ring was put on the fingertips again, they understood: the growth rings of the old locust tree had already engraved the answer, and those missed, silent, and crying nights were just for the right person to crash into each other's arms in the evening sunshine when the sycamore leaves fell all over the courtyard.
This is a story about waiting and echoes - every detour you take pushes you towards the person you are destined to meet again.
