Song Zhiyang and Song Zhicang are identical twins, conceived from the same womb and share the same heartbeat.
In the summer when he was eighteen years old, when the lotus flowers were in full bloom in the West Lake, Song Zhiyang inadvertently opened the door of his brother's room and revealed Song Zhicang's most intimate secret - he was looking at his brother's photo and whispering his name.
At that moment, Song Zhiyang's world suddenly collapsed.
He fled to England and spent the distance of 9,300 kilometers, ten years, countless love affairs that ended in failure, and self-destruction soaked in tobacco and alcohol, trying to forget that summer afternoon. However, the tail ring was never taken off, and his hometown never really left. His brother's shadow melted into his body like blood, and every attempt to let go was in vain.
Ten years later, his aunt's funeral forced him to return to Hangzhou.
At the arrival gate of Xiaoshan Airport, he saw the person who looked exactly like him. After not seeing each other for ten years, he became thinner and silent, but he still came to pick him up.
From the West Lake to the Thames, from a bowl of preserved egg and lean meat porridge with uneven ginger shreds to the winter mornings when we sat side by side on a bench by the river, from "Don't cook porridge for me in the future" to "A Cang, come on. I'll wait for you" - a man who had escaped for ten years and a man who had been waiting for eleven years finally reunited on the channel of fate.
They were once the same fertilized egg that split into two beings. Now, the two lives are reunited into one heartbeat.
Intention: I will go against my nature, go against my instincts, and love you forever
