Thirty-one-year-old Shen west is an attending physician in cardiac surgery. He has saved countless lives on the operating table, but he cannot save his own increasingly numb heart. Seven years of high-pressure work had tempered her enthusiasm and made her accustomed to living alone—getting off work at three in the morning, buying a sandwich for dinner at a convenience store, and going back to a deserted rental house to fall asleep.
Thirty-two-year-old Chen Yan was once an elite analyst in the financial circle. After being excluded because he did not want to join in the corruption, he chose to retire. In the past two years, he has compressed his life to the simplest mode - fitness, reading, cooking, stock trading, no socializing, no socializing, and no expectation of anyone.
Late one night, Shen west found himself in a convenience store without his mobile phone and wallet, and was in a panic. A strange man behind her silently paid the bill for her, left the words "Building 1802, No. 7, Wutong Garden" and left.
She lived in 1901. Just above him.
She went to pay back the money the next day, and the two of them exchanged less than twenty words in total.
After that, there were chance encounters in the elevator, an accident of water pipe leakage, a steaming bowl of clear noodle soup, a lightly covered blanket, and a post-it note that said "I'll call you if I need anything"...
She began to look up at the lights on the eighteenth floor, and he began to pay attention to the footsteps upstairs.
Two people who live like isolated islands find each other's harbor in the most ordinary daily life.
