Jin Yu is the daughter of a goldfish shop owner. Her favorite thing since she was a child is lying in front of a fish tank with neon lights on, watching the goldfish inside, twisting their sparkling bodies, and looking at the world outside the fish tank with her big eyes, full of confusion.
When she was eighteen years old, her father forgot her birthday and casually took a goldfish he brought back from a neighbor as her birthday gift, calling it the best one carefully selected. She deliberately ignored her mother's phone call to apologize to her neighbor when she quietly hid on the balcony. She had long been accustomed to being treated as a dispensable goldfish. After all, she was a girl. Once she finished school, graduated, and got married, she would no longer be a member of the Jin family.
When she got to college, she was like a goldfish that had just been released from the bathtub. Facing this colorful world, she seemed a little overwhelmed. On the first day of school, a classmate asked a question to which she knew the answer by heart. She smiled and replied: "My name is goldfish because my father hopes that I will be as lucky as a koi." The classmates laughed and praised her for her happy and harmonious family, but they did not know that the name actually came from a casual bet her father made when she was born.
As she neared graduation, good luck seemed to have occurred to her for the first time. When her previous part-time boss started a business, he thought of her and invited her to join. Jin Yu was flattered by someone who took the initiative for the first time. To this day, the only moment when food comes into contact with her taste buds, that relaxed mood will not betray her. After graduation, Jin Yu successfully became a food editor. Although this went against her father's dream of a rich husband, she has no regrets.
In the first twenty-two years, Jin Yu had only one birthday wish, which was to be loved firmly. Unfortunately, the candlelight was extinguished, and she was always the only one by her side;
Four years later, she has finally become the person she dreamed of as a child, and her home has long since become a symbol. Her career and life have given her the confidence to break out of the fish tank that has imprisoned her for many years.
She finally plucked up the courage to open her heart and met a young man in a white fencing uniform.
It was another birthday. Under the warm yellow light, the boy patiently answered her questions and told her the rules of the game and scoring points. At the end of the road, she asked the question that had troubled her for many years but never dared to ask.
Under the streetlight, the boy looked at her: "Didn't you get all my points just now?"
Jin Yu seemed to see that at the end of the road, the unloved girl had run away.
Purpose: Redeem yourself and reconcile with the past
