They once thought that love can reach thousands of mountains and rivers.
Xiang Yang, a girl from the county town, carries the fragments of her original family on her back. In the university she squeezed her way into, she is like a plant stubbornly facing the light. Charles was the first unreserved sunshine in her life - he came from a privileged background, was cheerful and sincere, and gently pulled her out of the shell of inferiority and sensitivity.
During the four years of college, they were the most splendid chapter of each other's youth. The frictions caused by differences have become insignificant footnotes on the road of love. They thought they could reach tomorrow holding hands.
Until leaving the ivory tower, the storm of reality roared. What stands between the two is no longer a trivial matter, but the weight of the entire world: family expectations, future choices, collisions of values... Those edges that were once softened by love have now become sharp blades that can stab each other.
This is a story about love and growth, and it is also an elegy about the gentle collision of two worlds and their eventual passing. They rushed towards the promised future, only to discover in the end that it was a "tomorrow that no one has arrived at".
