Lin Shuying has lived in the shadow of her parents' quarrels since she was a child. Her sensitive and introverted personality makes her always cautious. After graduating from college, she chose to become an illustrator, using paintbrushes to build a gentle world that belonged only to herself, but she never dared to face the reality of interpersonal communication.
By chance, Lin Shuying took over the renovation project of a community picture book library, where she met the enthusiastic and cheerful barista Jiang Zhaoye. Jiang Zhaoye could always see through the uneasiness in her eyes, and silently placed a hot latte next to her drawings, and took her to the streets to find creative inspiration. Under his influence, Lin Shuying began to try to communicate with different people and tell the stories in picture books to children.
At the same time, Lin Shuying's parents suddenly proposed to remarry. This news made her fall into a long-term entanglement. Jiang Zhaoye accompanied her back to her hometown and listened to her grievances that had been accumulated for many years. In the heart-opening conversations, Lin Shuying learned to let go of the past, accept the imperfections of her parents, and accept the imperfections of herself.
When the picture book library reopened, amidst the laughter of the children, Lin Shuying held the paintbrush and finally painted a work full of sunshine. And those scars that she thought would never heal turned into a glimmer of light guiding her forward through Jiang Zhaoye's companionship and self-salvation.
