In September in Nancheng, Jiang Chi, the president of Xingyuan Capital, reunited with his first love Lin Zhixing, whom he had left without saying goodbye seven years ago. Facing the down-and-out Lin Zhixing, Jiang Chi exposed his scar of dropping out of school as an interviewer, and Lin Zhixing responded calmly. Jiang Chi managed to keep him by his side and arranged him in an adjacent office. Inside the one-way glass are the capital tycoons, and outside are the down-and-out academics. Jiang Chi tested him with task torture, but lost control of his emotions in the tea room late at night and asked Lin Zhixing if he was punishing himself. Lin Zhixing responded, "The former Lin Zhixing is dead" and pushed him away.
On a rainy night, Jiang Chi sent Lin Zhixing back to the village in the city and learned that he had lived a difficult life for the past seven years. At the entrance of the alley, Jiang Chi handed the umbrella to Lin Zhixing and stood there in the rain. Memories emerged: Seven years ago, Jiang Chi protected Lin Zhixing, who was forced into debt by loan sharks, and the two made a first kiss appointment on the rooftop to attend the same university. In the second semester of his senior year of high school, Lin Zhixing's father owed two million in loan sharks. In order to protect Jiang Chi, he refused to help and signed a donation agreement. He left a heartless text message on Xue Ye and then disappeared. Reunited seven years later, Jiang Chi didn't know that the rift in Lin Zhixing's heart would take a long time to fill. The light that was out of reach when he was young, the long night that he dared not look directly at as an adult.
Purpose: to cross the reality gap and the cracks of time, and find pure love and self-salvation at the end of the long night.
