Five years later, he became a technological upstart in charge of Xingtu Technology, and she was a gold medal lawyer who swept through business wars. When they met at the top, the former warmth was replaced by tit-for-tat. The hostile takeover case reunited the two people. From the quarreling at the negotiation table to the joint investigation of the truth, they tore apart the Lu family's power-hungry conspiracy and exposed the forged evidence and deliberate provocation.
The misunderstanding is resolved in the scent of peppermint candies in the old alley, and love is rekindled in the journey of breaking through the situation side by side. There is no humiliation of one party being attached to the other, only an evenly matched rush; there is no procrastinating entanglement, only bright turns and ultimate pull. In the end, they stood under the neon lights of Liancheng, washed away their youthful glory, and regained their youthful agreement. In the name of love, they stood side by side, letting the gentleness of the old alley and the sharpness of the financial city become footnotes to each other.
