The Ordinary Love Story of an Electrician and a Billing Clerk

In a busy urban industrial park, Awen, a taciturn senior electrician, and Xiaoyu, a lively and cheerful invoice teller, were originally just acquaintances separated by a glass window. Awen's world consists of wires, circuits, and equipment that can never be repaired; Xiaoyu's domain consists of bills, account books, and phones that never stop ringing. Until a factory-wide power outage accident, the two people's worlds unexpectedly intersected. When Awen was repairing the circuit, he discovered that there was a "circuit fault" that he could never repair - that was the heartbeat that always accelerated inexplicably in front of Xiaoyu. And Xiaoyu gradually realized that what she was most looking forward to hearing was not the ringing of the phone, but the sound of Awen's steady footsteps ringing outside the office. From the chance encounter in the tool room to the sharing of lunches on overtime nights; from the shy first date to the clumsy confession that confirms the relationship; from renting a house separately to the first home they decorate together, this novel delicately depicts how two ordinary people find the resonant frequency of each other's heartbeats in the current interweaving of work and life.
