When the thorns first met, the glimmer of light suddenly appeared, and where the stars were bright, it was she and him who were evenly matched in their pursuit and growth.
Su Yu, a brand planning newcomer who just entered the workplace, is full of enthusiasm but bumps into the industry's "iceberg" Lu Shiyan, a technological upstart. A data error caused the two to be at odds with each other. She was "harsh and mean" to him, but she also discovered his gentleness that was cold on the outside and warm on the inside in the lychee soda he handed her late at night and his inadvertent maintenance.
She is sober and tenacious, with a design dream; he is rational and protective of his shortcomings, obsessed with details. In the workplace, they are superiors and subordinates, and project partners. They meet by chance in the tea room, guard in crises, confess under the street lights, and ambiguity gradually arises.
But love and growth are not easy paths. Jealousy, shopping mall games, family misunderstandings, and betrayal plots push them to the edge of trust and choice time and time again. When the storm hit, the evidence pointed to her, and he firmly believed "I believe in you." When she doubted herself, he said, "I can pay you back when I make money, and it will take my whole life."
From the thorns and ambiguous temptations of the first encounter, to the sweetness and tolerance of "underground love at the workplace", to the absolute trust in a career crisis... Su Yu, under the protection and encouragement of Lu Shiyan, went from being a transparent person in the workplace to an entrepreneur who can stand alongside him. Lu Shiyan's cold procedural world also had the warmth of dreams and human fireworks because of Su Yu.
This is an evenly matched love game, a mutual achievement and bond between independent souls. Walking through thorns, standing on the river of stars, looking back at the past, misunderstandings, perseverance, challenges and honors have turned into promises: "You will be with me for the rest of your life."
