Their encounter was a forbidden flame.
Zhou Zhiya, a twenty-nine-year-old university teacher, has a marriage in name only, but she still carries the shell of a "good wife and good teacher".
Lu Yuzhou, a nineteen-year-old boy, is a musical genius. His parents are divorced but he is free and unrestrained. Deep down in his heart, he longs for order and refuge.
At the beginning of the autumn wind, their souls collided in the gaze of the classroom; before the winter snow melted, they resonated in the middle of the piano sound in the dark night; in the spring flowers, they played "Die With A Smile" together in the tavern, and were overwhelmed by the applause and gazes of the unfamiliar audience. At that moment, they were no longer teacher and student, just two souls meeting naked.
However, love like fire cannot help but burn.
Rumors spread, school punishments were imposed, families were torn apart, and public opinion surged. They tried their best to protect each other, but in the end they could not resist the whirlpool of fate.
This is a story about freedom and rules, persistence and letting go.
They attract each other and hurt each other; they are each other's salvation and each other's doom.
When the fire meets the clear spring, will it burn out or merge into eternity?
Intention: freedom and rules, persistence and letting go
