The Evening Breeze Passes by Jiefang Road

Lin Wan worked the night shift at a convenience store on Jiefang Road for three years. Her life was as pale and stable as a broken light tube. It wasn't until around one o'clock in the morning that a man in a jacket opened the door and said he wanted to buy a bowl of instant noodles... She recognized him - Zhou Ye, her first high school love, her ex who had left without saying goodbye seven years ago. He came back from a twelve-hour train ride with no savings or real estate certificate in his pocket, only a crumpled fruit candy and a question that was seven years late. Every day at 4:43 a. M., She has a fifteen-minute break. He used these fifteen minutes to pursue a girl who had been let down by him again. And she had to decide in these fifteen minutes whether to forgive someone who once made her sit on the balcony all night. This is a story about waiting and reunion. Not all departures deserve forgiveness, but the return of some speaks for itself.
