In the modern city with flashing neon lights, three old friends, Lin Zitong, Jiang Yining and Su Qingran, went their separate ways, but reunited again because of a "best friend gathering order." They experienced confusion and pressure in their careers, emotions and life goals respectively, and faced work imbalance, family expectations and self-questioning. Lin Zitong is tortured by the pressure of workplace promotion and the shadow of love; Jiang Yining struggles between art and reality, while facing family expectations and emotional self-denial; Su Qingran is trapped between family tradition and personal dreams, suffering from self-doubt. The three of them supported each other, bickered and joked, searched for their true self amidst the ups and downs of life, and faced the joys and sorrows of growing up and life choices. In the end, they broke the shackles, each completed the transformation from self-questioning to self-realization, and allowed each other's friendship to shine in the light and shadow of the city.
