In his previous life, Shi Yuan loved his stepbrother Gu Zheng for ten years. The night his mother asked him to bring hangover soup to Gu Zheng's study, he went. But afterward, Gu Zheng sent him abroad, and they never saw each other again. In the final phone call he received, all he heard was one cold sentence.
Lu Chengyu had secretly loved Shi Yuan for years, but had never dared to say he liked him. By the time he hurried back, it was already too late.
Given another chance at life, Shi Yuan sets down the bowl of hangover soup and turns back to his room. This time, he won't fall for Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng waits in his study all night. The soup never comes.
Later, Shi Yuan meets Lu Chengyu, the man who thought of him in his final moments in his previous life. In this life, Lu Chengyu grabs his wrist, eyes red: “Shi Yuan, could you... look at me?”
Everyone else thinks this is just a fresh start. Only Gu Zheng and Lu Chengyu know the truth: one of them once pushed Shi Yuan away with his own hands, while the other tried with all his might. Shi Yuan alone has forgotten everything from his previous life.
Standing in the shadows, Gu Zheng watches Lu Chengyu hold Shi Yuan protectively in his arms. He suddenly remembers the person who once stood at his study door with a bowl in his hands, and everything he let slip away.
In this life, he no longer has the right to take even one step toward him.
