    Their campus romance in Hong Kong was incredibly beautiful, but graduation brought a twist of fate. The male protagonist successfully established himself in the city, while the female protagonist suffered from severe anxiety and had to painfully end their relationship, returning to Haicheng alone. Ten years later, they met again at work, now as superior and subordinate. The male protagonist accidentally saw the female protagonist working overtime with a junior colleague, and in a fit of jealousy, he said hurtful things. The female protagonist, whose emotions had been building up for years, suffered a relapse and chose to resign. The male protagonist, having learned the truth about their breakup ten years ago, suddenly realized his mistake and went to her home to pursue her—a belated attempt to win her back.
