Lao Jin's family owns a goldfish shop. They have been together for more than thirty years and have raised two children.
Jin Yu is the eldest daughter. She is well-behaved, talks less, and gets good grades. This is the quality that her parents are most satisfied with, because it seems that she can naturally take care of her younger brother when she grows up and repay the family's efforts. Her favorite thing since she was a child is lying in front of the fish tank with neon lights. Sometimes she seems to feel that she is the goldfish in the tank, twisting her sparkling body, her big eyes full of confusion, but there is a prison that she cannot swim out of.
Her younger brother was seven years younger than her, and his name was Jin Chengyi. The name was given by her father, and her expectations were obvious. From that day on, she knew that studying was her only way out, but perfect test papers could not bring smiles to her parents. However, her younger brother stole the money she saved to buy exercise books, and the popsicle she brought with her after buying comics could make her parents praise her for several days.
After the college entrance examination, the girl from a small town managed to survive four years of college. She was able to endure hardships and work hard. She finally sat in the tall building she once looked up to, and her movements seemed effortless.
As time flies, Jin Yu has become the person she dreamed of as a child, and home has long since become a symbol. Her career and life have given her the courage to stand up without breaking up.
Also appearing together was the boy who broke through the waves and swam with her out of the narrow fish tank that had imprisoned her for many years.
Under the spotlight, amid cheers, with the gold medal hanging on his chest, the boy took out a shining ring from his red and white sportswear, knelt down on one knee, and said to the direction of the audience: "From now on, I will accompany you in the sea that you have never seen before. Will you go with me?"
In the noisy auditorium, looking at the shining boy, across the sea of people, Jin Yu nodded as they looked at each other tacitly. She seemed to see that at the end of the swimming lane, the unloved girl had run away.
Purpose: Growth and Redemption
