Thirteen-year-old Lin Wanxing's dream of studying was shattered in the mud of the rainy season in the south. She was exploited by her native family as a "loser". From the assembly line of an electronics factory to the kitchen of a restaurant, her fat body became a shackles that she could not get rid of. Until a farce of urging her to get married, she fled north with 300 yuan of private money.
The cold night in a rental house in Shijiazhuang, the smell of cigarette smoke in the convenience store in the early morning, and the cool "Follow me" from the boy in the game became the glimmer of light in her gloomy life. Shen Chi, a boy from the north who was four years younger than her, opened her heart with clumsy tenderness, but pushed her into the abyss again and again under the pull of reality - the intimacy in the game was an illusion, the sweetness of the present was a bubble, and the indifference of abortion was an illusion.
When she finally decided to cut off the past and carved "Desire to Be Loved" on a tattoo in a rental house in Hengshui, and tattooed her own starlight on her collarbone, the boy who had abandoned her like a pair of worn-out shoes broke into the life she had finally rebuilt with belated confession and hot tears.
This is a story about redemption and being redeemed. The branches of the south finally take root in the north. Can the fallen starlight be rekindled in his palm amidst the pull of love and pain?
