The Delicate Beauty Is Reborn in the 1980s

Song Wanxing was born into a family of musicians and was pampered from childhood. Her hands, made for playing the piano, were especially precious.

Yet she still resented how he was always so cold and taciturn, how he couldn't appreciate music, and how he wore the same coat all winter long.
