The heroine, Lin Zhisheng, was once a discarded wife from a wealthy family. Five years ago, after signing the divorce papers, she left without looking back for the Middle East, where she became a war correspondent and photographer. She documented life and death through her lens, using her work to numb her emotions. Five years later, after a shelling left her with severe psychological trauma (PTSD) and hearing loss in her left ear, she was forced to return home to recover.
The hero, Shen Tinglan, is the youngest ace captain in civil aviation. Born into an illustrious family, he is cold and ascetic. He resents Lin Zhisheng for leaving without a word all those years ago, and resents himself even more for never truly getting over her in the past five years.
