When Lin Xi first met Jiang Yi, he was a "wage worker" wearing a washed-out T-shirt and moving bricks on a construction site, while she was a freshman who was transferred to an unpopular major and was confused about the future. No one expected that this first encounter in the dust would entangle their lives for ten years.
He was once the top scorer in science, but due to a sudden change in his family, he dropped out of school to work. He carried steel bars during the day and gnawed on mechanics textbooks under the street lights at night. She was once an idealist who was ridiculed for "drawing pictures to satisfy her hunger." She repeatedly ran into obstacles in the design world, and even her graduation project was almost plagiarized.
He had seen her crying in the rental house and tearing up the rejected drawings, but still got up early in the morning to change the plan; she had seen him collapse in the hospital corridor while clutching his mother's critical illness notice, but still showed up on time in the examination room the next day to review.
They once tested each other across the gap of reality - he had low self-esteem and did not dare to get close because of his "lower" status, and she was trapped in the suppression of her original family and did not dare to pursue her dreams; they also pushed each other away in the waves of fate - he concealed his illness and left alone to give her a "better future", and she gave up love and went to a foreign country to prove that she gave up love.
But the twists and turns are never the end. He relied on self-study to counterattack and become the youngest structural engineer in the industry, turning the mud into a smooth road; she persisted in originality despite doubts, making "Linxi Design" a benchmark in the industry. When the two met again on the stage of the top architectural forum, he held the old pen she gave her back then, and she wore the metal bookmark he stayed up late to make on her chest——
It turns out that all the running against the wind is to be with you at the top; all the twists and turns are the only way to go in both directions.
