Xu Nuo is a bright, independent young woman. Thanks to the opportunities of her era and her own hard work, she gets into A University, one of the best in the country. She once thought the future would unfold smoothly along its expected course, until she met Shen Wangshu...
She knows he loves Lin Si. She has tried to let go, but the love she has nowhere to put keeps spreading through her heart like roots. No matter how often she cuts them back, they keep growing. Again and again, she tries to bury those feelings and piece her broken heart back together. Yet every time night falls and all is quiet, the past still haunts her like a nightmare. She cannot bring herself to let go, nor can she ever truly forget.
They meet again after the years have come full circle, by which time Lin Si is married. Xu Nuo thinks things will be different between them this time. She thinks at last there might be somewhere for their relationship to go. Yet whenever she faces Shen Wangshu, she still senses a distance that comes and goes, as if an invisible barrier stands between them. No matter how hard she tries, she can never truly reach his heart. She once thought Lin Si was what stood between them, but gradually she realizes that the greatest obstacles are the distance they cannot cross and the fate they have missed.
She has always thought there is no real difference between her and Lin Si, until Shen Wangshu runs into trouble. She does everything she can to help him, but every time she gets close, the wariness and suspicion in his eyes break her heart. Meanwhile, when Lin Si offers a helping hand, he accepts it so naturally. The trust and reliance he places in her seem to belong to Lin Si by nature. Only then does Xu Nuo realize she can never be like Lin Si, offering someone warmth and comfort without reservation. Her love is too heavy, too urgent, and in the end it will only drive the other person away.
Later, they finally get together, but their relationship always seems to be pulled and tugged by an invisible force. Everyone around them thinks they are wrong for each other. She does everything she can to keep them together, yet feels everything silently slipping toward an irreversible end. Should they still stay together?
