**Core Settings**
- **Background stage**: The southern coastal city "Jingang", the old city that is humid and rainy all year round, and the northern city that is dry and cold seven years later.
- **Core Imagery**: Rainy season and desert. The rainy season represents the excess emotions, tears and entangled past in youth; the desert symbolizes the rational, dry and safe existence in adulthood.
- **Character Relationship**:
- **Chen Zui**: A "drowning person" who is sensitive, world-weary, and refuses to grow up. Architectural restorer, trying to find eternity in old objects.
- **Jiang Chi**: Sharp, decisive, and a leaver who is regarded as a "traitor" by Chen Zui. Venture capitalists are accustomed to controlling all variables.
- **Reunion Mechanism**: Seven years ago, Jiang Chi unilaterally cut off contact and left to the north in order to force Chen Zui to "come ashore"; seven years later, Jiang Chi returned with a lot of hardships, only to find that Chen Zui had really turned himself into an island. This time, Jiang Chi decided not to be the one who drove him ashore, but to accompany him to indulge.
