Amidst the chirping of cicadas in midsummer, the fragrance of gardenia flowers has not yet dissipated, but on the day of his mother's death, Jiang Nianxia's world stopped forever and became a sleepless dream.
When the cold mechanical sound sounded in the ward, Yan Yinan and Pan Zhiling followed their obsession and fell into a cage called "memory" together. Each level is an old shadow of midsummer that has been dusted by time: the rumors in the old alley, the breakup in the hospital corridor, and the agreement in Gardenia Courtyard have all turned into ghosts that gnaw at their hearts, forcing them to face the misunderstandings from three years ago and the unspoken tenderness.
The thorn of pride and the shield of silence had pushed the three of them further and further away; and in this journey of memories, they finally broke through their misunderstandings and saw each other's protection hidden in clumsiness and silence.
When the last fragment settled, the cage shattered, and the dream awakened. It's another year when gardenias bloom, and the three girls stand side by side in the sunlight, finally letting the belated reconciliation warm the whole summer.
Intention: Use gardenia as a guide to break the prison of summer; use close friends as light to explain past regrets. The three girls picked up the broken tenderness in their memories, passed through misunderstandings and pain, and finally let the belated reconciliation warm the suspended midsummer.
