Tian Ci is a rare "handmade wax brand texture crack control designer" in China. Others wanted to make wax plaques that were perfect, but she wanted the wax surface to crack with lines like ice flowers - every crack could not be copied, just like the scars in youth that cannot be smoothed away.
Ten years ago, Liu Yan, the young man who stuffed a hand warmer into her desk in the cold winter, suddenly disappeared one month before the college entrance examination without even saying goodbye.
Ten years later, Liu Yan opened the door of her studio as an investor. He said he wanted to help her, saying it was "atonement." Tian Ci sneered and threw a wax sign in front of him that was completely broken due to the large temperature difference: "You can restore the cracks, and I will forgive you."
From the scrapping of the entire furnace caused by the out-of-control cooling temperature difference, to the natural contradiction between the high-grade texture and yield of natural random ice cracks, to the repeated failures to predict the direction of cracks due to changes in room temperature - Tian Ci has struggled with "uncontrollability" in the world of wax for ten years. The appearance of Liu Yan made her discover that some cracks were not meant to be repaired, but to become lines.
When the thirty-seven letters that had never been sent were spread out, and when all the broken wax pieces were remelted into a complete ice-cracked wax plaque, Tian Ci finally understood: the most touching cracks in life are never carefully designed, but just the right temperature difference of fate.
