[Autistic female watchmaker vs. Affectionate straight-ball businessman]
During his twenty-four years of wandering overseas, Bogu was alone and tortured by mental illness. He could only find inner peace in the world of precision machinery.
She found the rhythm of her heart in the metallic sound of rolling mechanical gears.
I'm going back to the world of steampunk.
After Bogu left this note, he jumped from the 23rd floor and ended his young life.
The last gift she left to the world was three mechanical watches made by herself.
Many years later, three mechanical watches appeared in famous auction houses at home and abroad, and were purchased by watch enthusiasts and collectors.
Bogu's name is resounding at home and abroad and has become synonymous with talented watchmakers.
After many years of circulation, one of the pieces was sold in Geneva by Jiang Yuwu, a businessman from the port city, for US$41.5 Million, setting a record high price in watch auctions.
For Jiang Yuwu, the name Bogu was too old and full of mystery.
It was not until much later that Bogu's dramatic life was made public. He was abandoned by his parents since he was a child, was adopted by overseas adoptive parents, and then suffered the death of his adoptive parents.
Talent and mental illness coexist. He was sent to a mental hospital twice. He stubbornly believed that he did not belong to this world.
No one imagined what kind of mood she would have in completing her work in a micro machine.
In the long night of darkness, the man had a slender figure with a deep silhouette, elegant and steady. In the quiet night, he heard the close mechanical sound inside the watch, like the beating of a heart.
Across a clock, he felt what Bogu had been thinking many years ago.
He remembered this clockmaker named Bo Gu.

One day, while Bogu was walking on the streets of Switzerland, she met a Chinese man.
That was the most handsome man she had ever seen.
The man was dressed in a black formal suit, solemn and dignified, bathing in the glow of the Zurich river bank, keeping away from the dust.
In her decayed and withered life, he was like a ray of clean morning light, shining quietly into her dark heart.
"Your name is Bogu."
Jiang Yuwu's voice was deep and clear. He raised his hand to take off the expensive mechanical watch from his wrist and placed it in Bo Gu's palm.
"Can you fix it for me?"
Later, Jiang Yuwu's friends adopted Bogu, and Jiang Yuwu naturally became the "Uncle Jiang" in Bogu's mouth.

It's another snowy day, in the polar night of Northern Europe, inside a crystal-clear glass house.
Bo Gu lay down by the fireplace, with a man lying behind her, holding her tightly in his arms from behind.
He lowered his head and kissed her back very gently, and whispered:
"Bo Gu, this world belongs to you, don't leave, okay?"
Bogu turned around and wrapped his arms around his neck, asking, "What about you, Uncle Jiang..."
"I belong to you too."
He hugged her tightly and gave her a deep kiss on a winter night.
