Xia Zhixia and Xia Changming grew up together in the courtyard of a small town in the south of the Yangtze River. A bowl of sour plum soup and an old umbrella carry the innocent years of their childhood sweethearts. Sentiment grows quietly, love takes root in the heart, but in the hottest years, it is torn apart by family and worldly life - a forced transfer of schools and a ten-year separation push the two souls to completely different fates.
Ten years later, she is a calm and rational psychiatrist, using her profession to hide her pain; she is a wandering photographer, chasing figures in her memory with her lens. Destiny made them meet again in the "Double Summer Residence" on a rainy night. The old warmth remained, but the reality was full of thorns. Family opposition, social prejudice, public opinion siege, inner fear... They are repeatedly pulled on the edge of love and pain, approaching again and again, and retreating again and again.
She didn't dare to love, for fear of hurting her; she wanted to love, even if she was alone against the whole world. From depression to awakening, from escape to struggle, they spent ten years of missing each other in exchange for a reunion, and used countless tears to water an unblessed relationship. In the end, they reenacted their childhood agreement in the courtyard of their old house, exchanged vows under the ginkgo tree, and declared to the world: free love is not a mistake; suppressing love is. **
This is a long confession about growth, redemption and courage.
When it's sweet, it's like the summer wind blowing on your face, making your teeth soft;
When abused, it is like cutting out the heart with a knife, making people cry unspeakably.
Their story is the continuation of their childhood sweethearts, and it is also the stubbornness of two souls embracing each other tightly and refusing to let go in the torrent of the world.
**Double summer is bright, love will eventually shine. **
