When Xu Baizhou and Tang Xiaoyuan's "same boat" friendship settled into a deeper bond in the northern city, parallel stories also quietly unfolded.
Jiang Yu, who was born in an aristocratic family but chose the path of technology, became very interested in Xu Baizhou, who insisted on "progressive reconstruction" in the Xingsu system because of a technology salon. What he admired was not only his technical talent, but also his sobriety and resilience in maintaining independent thinking in a huge system. Xu Baizhou, under the guidance of Jiang Yu Yiyou and his teacher, came into contact with the vast world beyond the ceiling of big factories. In the collision of ideals and reality, the two explored the dual boundaries of technology and emotion.
At the same time, Fang Siheng, a gentle and reserved doctor, met Tang Xiaoyuan who was overwhelmed by work pressure in an emergency. He healed his physical discomfort with professionalism and patience, and opened another window into Tang Xiaoyuan's fast-paced Internet life with his calm temperament - a window leading to inner peace and the authenticity of life. Two delicate and sensitive hearts, between the hustle and bustle of the city and the tranquility of the hospital, gradually get closer and warm each other.
These are two love songs that unfold in parallel, intertwined with the friendship in "Fireworks and Inkstones" to form a richer harmony. On their own trajectories, they will face differences in family backgrounds, career choices and inner questioning, and continue to write their own warm and real world of fireworks beside the inkstone.
