---
A love that started with a lie, two souls living under disguise.
Lin Mo is the most gentle and decent good guy in the company. No one knows that he has spent more than 20 years carefully playing the role of a "normal person". Until that rainy night, when he was trapped in the subway station, a seemingly timid home girl stood up for him - she was vindictive, stingy, and too lazy to socialize, but she had the reality he longed for most.
He approached awkwardly, and she defended herself warily. He offers carefully calculated tenderness, and she insists on AA for every penny. When the person who is best at disguising meets the audience who is least willing to cooperate, the relationship begins with a calculated approach, but unexpectedly touches the truest part of each other.
"If I have a chance to see you again, I won't pretend anymore. You don't have to be strong. Let's just fall in love again."
When we met again seven years later, he was the design director and she was the head of the brand. The identities are reversed, the trajectories are intertwined, and those unspoken confessions are finally honest in the face of life and death. And the appearance of another person, like a gentle and lasting light, is quietly illuminating her closed world...
