Throughout her three years of high school, Luo Shi gave everything she had to look up to someone.
Back then, she was an ugly duckling lost in the dust, while he was a distant moon high above the clouds. For the sake of that unrequited love that never came to fruition, she suffered and struggled. In the end, she tore those feelings out by the roots and threw them away for good.
Years later, they met again at the airport. Their chance encounter on the plane earned him nothing more than a distant smile from her.
When they met again, he was an executive at a company, while she had long since shed her old self. Her looks, status, and ability all shone brightly, and she had become someone he could no longer control.
He thought their reunion would rekindle an old flame,
not knowing that all she felt when she looked at him was weariness and indifference.
"Sorry, we don't know each other well."
Then another elegant, charming man entered her life and gave her an extravagant, tender kind of devotion.
But the cruelest thing about fate is that it first gives you a beautiful dream, then uses the words "social class" and "reality" to drag you back down to earth.
Theme: Break free from draining obsessions, face the realities of social differences as equals, and find self-redemption and independence through love and heartache.
