Early autumn in the north, with the chill growing sharper.
Three years away, and everything has changed.
The night sky, lit up by brilliant lights, looks like a doctored oil painting, beautiful to the point of unreality.
Qian Yuqiu drives slowly, trying to get reacquainted with the hometown where he spent nineteen years curled up, an old acquaintance who has suddenly shaved off his full beard. He falls silent, calls out, weeps bitterly, laughs wildly, but gets no response. At last, he understands: he was never the one who abandoned this land. This land was the one that abandoned him.
Yet before he can find his way back to his city, romantic entanglements surge in like a flood, threatening to swallow his world.
Welcome to Jicheng.
