Lu Zhixing was a former urban renewal planner and participated in many old city reconstruction projects. After his father passed away, he returned to Qixiali, Linjiang City, planning to sell the remaining copy shop and completely leave this old street that he didn't want to recall.
At 1:17 in the morning, a takeaway rider with only seven yuan left knocked on the door of the store.
Starting from helping to print out a labor arbitration document, unemployed workers, single mothers, defrauded elderly people, and young people working late at night came to this small shop that was originally about to close.
There isn't much he can do: understand a contract, find out an address, make a phone call, and accompany someone to hand over materials.
But when Qixiali received a notice to renovate the old city, when everyone was forced to face new choices in their lives, Lu Zhixing also had to face his past again.
He finally understood that real help is not to decide someone else's life, but to turn on the light for them when they are in the most difficult time.
There's someone on duty tonight.
