From small island town to metropolis, and from Berlin to Paris.
Shen Wanjin began to understand that love is redemption, love is also sin, and love is ultimately like cultivation.
Love is salvation. In ten years, she transformed from an inexperienced, overly idealistic and unrealistic girl into a new woman who is independent and loyal to her own social ideals.
Love is also a sin. The escape at the engagement party was one, and the betrayal after living together in Paris was the second. Childhood sweethearts, only in childhood. Her harm to Cheng Zhixi was one-sided.
Love is like practice. They love each other, are tired of each other, cannot understand each other, and are unwilling to compromise with each other. The stubbornness of youth eventually turns into a willful act in memories. Under the torture of drifting away, she began to become the best version of herself.
Shen Wanjin finally understood that compared to the love and hate between herself and him, there were more profound sufferings in the world that needed attention.
In Libya after the war, Shen Wanjin, an international social worker on refugee issues, met Song Yu, a sociologist on refugee issues, unexpectedly. The sudden reunion left her speechless. She spent so long away from him to find the best version of herself.
But he discovered that the so-called best self is that you are becoming more and more like him after all.
