In the early 1990s, the spring breeze of reform and opening up blew across the country, but the remote Qingxi Town still clung to the old days. Su Wanqing, a smart and intellectual young woman from a small town who graduated from high school, is the most promising girl in the eyes of the town. She is unwilling to be trapped in the small town and wants to change her destiny with knowledge. Lu Zheng, who was once the most dazzling young man in Qingxi Town, was unjustly imprisoned for fifteen years for taking the blame for others.
Two people who should have had nothing to do with each other met unexpectedly. Amidst the trials of prejudice, rumors, and fate, she saw his kindness and ability hidden under his indifference, and he protected her purity and dreams. They worked hand in hand to fight against secular vision, fight against the tide of the times, clear their grievances, redeem each other, and write an affectionate story that spans suffering and years.
