Shu Yan always thought that he was just an ordinary boy who didn't fit in well with others.
Until one day in early summer, he met the ghost of an orange cat who called himself "Nian" on the balcony.
From then on, whenever the unexplained fragrance of gardenia quietly appeared, he could see the souls that were regretfully left in the world - children waiting for a flower to bloom, old people guarding the old courtyard and unwilling to leave, young people who still want to go home after many years...
Some people failed to say goodbye properly, and some people just wanted to take another look at the destination they had never arrived at.
Sparse words and thoughts accompany them through the unfinished journey, and slowly return to the world of the living among the steaming meals, fireworks blooming in the summer night and quietly budding flower branches.
What is the obsession that can be forgotten?
Why does the fragrance of gardenia that only Shu Yan can smell always linger around him when the soul of the dead appears?
This summer, some people left and some returned.
Flowers bloom and eventually fall, but those loves that are well remembered may never really disappear.
Purpose: Learn to reconcile with regrets and partings, and let the remembered love become the power to continue living.
