In Ancheng, a small southern town, there is an old street that is about to be demolished - Qingshi Lane. There is a grocery store at the end of the alley that has been open for 40 years. After the owner Shen Granny passed away, the store fell into the hands of her granddaughter Shen Zhi, who had been wandering for many years.
Twenty-seven-year-old Shen Zhi has been drifting to Beijing for seven years and achieved nothing. She returned here with a suitcase and full of exhaustion. She wanted to sell the shop, take the money and leave, but she was dragged back to that forgotten time bit by bit by IOUs and old friends. And that childhood sweetheart, Gu Huaian, who had been quarreling with her since she was a child, is now the young owner of the car repair shop next door. He still has a sharp tongue and still deserves a beating, but when she was in the most embarrassing situation, he silently handed her a bowl of hot soup.
This is a story about return, reconciliation, regret and tenderness. Every old thing collecting dust in the grocery store is a past that someone cannot get back.

Even though there are not so many Gu Huaian in the world, I believe that I am worthy of being loved, and there will be a person who has me in his heart and eyes. My grandmother's appearance reflects from my grandmother's body. I am so afraid that my grandmother will leave. My grandmother is the person closest to me, and I am also the child she cares about the most. I miss her very much.
