Lin Xiao works hard in the city, facing the pull between trivial work and ideals, the entanglement of friendship and love, and the hidden fetters of family. Three main lines are intertwined: the first is the growth and transformation of Lin Xiao and his friends under the pressure of work and life; the second is Song Yue's entrepreneurial and emotional choices, adhering to dreams and self-salvation; the third is the hidden plots of supporting characters such as Zhao Jiaming, Li Sisi and Zhou Zheng, involving workplace struggles, emotional reconciliation and family secrets. The story lines collide with each other and promote the transformation of the characters. In the end, Lin Xiao understood the secret of life, not to be limited by external things, and to accept his imperfect self.
