1998/Taiwan/Summer
Liao Tianyi was originally a gifted student that everyone was optimistic about, but he lost his classmate Zheng Xiping in an accident a year ago, and also missed the joint entrance examination that changed his life. He did not choose to repeat his studies, but instead saved money for his grandma's "dream of returning to the mainland" and started working as a betel nut transport driver in a small town, traveling back and forth between sensual places and small town streets. He met "Qing Qing", a mute betel nut beauty, at the Betel Nut Shop in Paris, and fell in love at first sight. But later I found out that "Qing Qing" was actually young Chen Qing. After experiencing the anger, loss and feeling of being deceived... He still couldn't help but fall into this emotional excitement.
At the same time, a seemingly ordinary delivery dragged him back into the shadow of Zheng Xiping's death. Old accidents, gang rivalries, gray transactions, and belated truths are like a tightening net that locks everyone in it.
