Lin Nian Nian talks a lot - she can sterilize a stranger's cat in the elevator, and she can turn a five-minute report into a stand-up comedy. Lu Yanzhou cherishes his words like gold. As the youngest partner in the investment circle, he can silence the entire audience with just one look.
When Hua Lao hit an iceberg, the cause was an unexpected cohabitation.
After the landlord broke the contract, her best friend helped Lin Niannian find a roommate with a "ridiculously low price" - the roommate was the company's new cold-blooded consultant, the man she once chased eight floors up in the elevator, but who only replied with a "hmm".
Lu Yanzhou set rules: be quiet after ten o'clock, communicate in advance in public areas, and don't try to chat with him.
Lin Niannian smiled and nodded: "Okay, okay, can I start talking now?"
He didn't know that her chatter was to cover up a secret that she didn't dare to keep quiet. She didn't know that his silence was concealing an obsession that she thought she had long since given up.
Until one day, Lu Yanzhou saw a sentence in her diary - "If I stop talking, it's probably because no one wants to listen."
He stood behind her, was silent for a long time, and said the longest sentence since they met:
"You speak. I will listen to every word."
This is a story about sound and silence, proximity and redemption. When Hua Lao met an iceberg, it was not that the iceberg melted, but that the iceberg discovered that he had been waiting for this sea.
