This book asks: when class stands between two people like a river, can they build a dignified life with their own hands? This isn't a sweet reimagining of Cinderella meeting her prince. It's the other way around: the prince meets Cinderella and finally decides to stop being a prince. Shen Nian's hands can make beautiful latte art. They are hands shaped by six years of hard work, scalds, cracked skin from the cold, and practice after closing the shop in the early hours of the morning. Lu Yanzhou's hands have repaired coffee machines, climbed through windows, and signed contracts. He escaped from a wealthy family into an ordinary life, thinking a change of name could give him a different life. Their meeting doesn't suddenly make the world kinder. Instead, two people each carrying their own burdens see in one another the possibility of another way to live.
