This is a modern urban narrative unfolded from a first-person perspective. The protagonist Lin Yu, with his youthfulness and longing after graduating from college, stepped into a strange city built of steel and concrete. From the embarrassment of being squeezed in a partition, to the caution in the internship position; from the excitement when becoming a full-time employee, to gradually learning to balance tact and principles in the workplace; from the apprehension of the first heartbeat, to facing the trivialities of life hand in hand with your lover; from the rush of being a new father, to understanding the weight of responsibility in the pull of family and work...
The story does not have ups and downs of dramatic conflicts, but it lays out the growth trajectory of an ordinary young man in the ordinary day after day. He will work overtime until late at night on a project, learn to be tolerant in conflicts with colleagues, understand after quarreling with his partner, and shoulder more responsibilities as his parents grow older. The smell of sweat hidden in the bus during the morning rush hour, the aroma of food wafting from the rental house, the whispers in the office tea room, and the cuddles under the lights in the living room all work together to weave a real picture of urban life.
This is not a legend about "successful learning", but a detailed record about "living" - a record of how a person takes root in the torrent of the city, how to keep his true heart in the entanglement of love and hatred, and how to piece together his own "sunny place" with warmth in countless ordinary moments. In the end, you will find that the so-called perfection is just that after being polished by life, you can still hold your lover's hand, look at the lights of thousands of houses outside the window, feel that the ground under your feet is solid, and the days in your eyes are bright.
