An accident when Lu Mingchuan was eight led to his neighbor's little sister being harmed by a criminal, completely changing his life. Accusations came pouring down on him, and he became the guilty one who had indirectly caused the girl's suffering.
His parents abandoned him in the countryside, where he remained for ten years. He spent those years in a daze, weighed down by guilt. At last, he came to his senses and resolved to make amends for the harm he'd caused. Unexpectedly, he ran into Xiao Like, a close childhood friend he'd once played with.
The moment Xiao Like saw Lu Mingchuan, sorrow and hatred tangled together, leaving him unsure how to face him. The seed of revenge took root in his heart. He was determined to make the man who had indirectly harmed his little sister pay.
Xiao Like: “The person I hate most is Lu Mingchuan.”
Driven by revenge, Xiao Like vows to make his life miserable. He deliberately gets close to him, but as they spend time together, he realizes Lu Mingchuan never meant to hurt anyone. A greater conspiracy gradually comes to light, and Xiao Like discovers that his heart is beginning to waver. Only then does he realize he never hated Lu Mingchuan at all.
Lu Mingchuan: “I was the one who hurt Xiao Fanmiao. I wronged him.”
From the moment Lu Mingchuan recognizes him, he intends to let Xiao Like punish him as a guilty man. But the closer they grow, the more conflicted he feels. Amid all the pain and struggle, he realizes that someone else in the world shares his suffering: Xiao Like.
