At 5:30 in the morning on the cold corridor, overnight steamed buns with cold white bread are Mu Chen's daily life; the washed-white school uniforms and the mountain of debt are shackles that he cannot shake off.
As the most humble student from Jiangcheng University, he munched on steamed buns to catch up with morning classes while working part-time as a takeaway and washing dishes to earn living expenses, just to support his sick parents and crumbling home. But even if he tried his best, he still couldn't escape the public ridicule of his rich second-generation classmates, and he couldn't escape the anxiety of running out of grades. Even Su Yao, the class beauty whom he had a crush on, could only watch from afar.
Pushing a dead electric scooter on a rainy night just to keep the 5 yuan delivery fee; being publicly humiliated in class, clenching his fists to swallow all the frustration; drinking cheap instant noodles late at night, writing the vow "I can't stay like this for the rest of my life" in my notebook.
He thought that life was destined to be a struggle and compromise, but he didn't know that a sudden accident had already laid the groundwork for it. When the low-level academic master's forbearance reaches its limit, when the gears of fate begin to turn, the sufferings that overwhelm him will eventually become the ladder for counterattack!
Being poor is not destiny, and humiliation is not the end. Mu Chen's life has never been mediocre at first glance - an accident is about to make him break free from the shackles, make a comeback, and make everyone who laughs at him look up to his light!
