Qiao Sangyu is used to building herself into an impregnable fortress.
She is the most precise measuring instrument in her department, accustomed to calculating the load-bearing strength of every defense alone in the late-night scent of linden wood. She believes that if her logic is airtight enough, she can withstand all the loneliness of a London winter.
Until a ray of sunshine quietly seeps in and drives away the cold and damp.
Theme: An exploration of the clash between reason and emotion in intimate relationships, and of learning to break down one's defenses through love.
