The story takes place in Zhengzhou in the 1990s. The railway tracks are the bones of the city, starting from the East Station marshalling yard and winding through the intertwined old and new neighborhoods. They are hard and cold. They not only determine the flow of goods, but also secretly mark the fate of countless people. One of them passed through the youth of the heroine Jiang Wan. Jiang Wan was once a child from another family, smart and beautiful, but because of a failure in the college entrance examination, the gears of fate began to turn to another trajectory. This kind of unwillingness has been with her for most of her life. When she entered middle age, this kind of unwillingness evolved into a kind of middle-aged rebellion, just like a train derailing on the rails, leading her life to the abyss of tragedy. This is a story about kindness and betrayal, as well as a trial about human nature.
Purpose: Teenage rebellion leads to a detour, while middle-aged rebellion leads to a dead end.
