This story focuses on a girl named Dai Ling, describing her return to her hometown and school after a life turning point. In the opening chapter, she reluctantly bids farewell to her grandparents, and the tender scene highlights the loneliness and pain behind her mask. The "mask that covers half of her face" becomes a barrier between her and the world, and also symbolizes the past and hidden trauma that she doesn't want to reveal. When Dai Ling returned to City B with a new skateboard and a mask, it was like stepping into a familiar yet unfamiliar battlefield.
On campus, her mask caused discussion and alienation among students. Rumors spread online, and people were full of curiosity and speculation about her appearance and secrets. At the same time, she met the male protagonist Lin Yanze, the boy who had a collision with her in the morning. Although the first meeting between the two was unexpected, it laid the foundation for their fate. Dai Ling's cold appearance and silent character attracted Lin Yanze's unexplainable attention.
On the other hand, the relationship between Dai Ling and her sister Dai Xue is the emotional core of the whole story. Dai Xue has a cheerful personality and is a popular figure on campus, but he is burdened with deep guilt for his sister - the accident that caused Dai Ling's disfigurement became an indelible shadow between the two. After the reunion, Dai Ling, although calm on the surface, still tolerated her sister with gentleness and covered up her pain with indifference; while Dai Xue worked hard to close the distance between the sisters, but did not dare to touch the common scar.
