Between sophisticated instruments and complex human hearts, she once lost herself.
Cheng Jing believes that the scientific research laboratory is the pure land for her ideals. Until she met Lin Shen - the junior fellow student who was so embarrassed that she grabbed the corners of her clothes when they first met, the one who would share the sunset with her, name stray cats, and send secret codes with candies. She taught him everything she could and introduced him to the situation. During the days of staying up late and supporting each other, she gradually regarded him as a beam of light in the dark laboratory building, even blurring the boundary between senior sister and dependent.
However, when rumors and suspicions hit, when sincerity is misinterpreted as "unnecessary interruption", when she discovers that her contribution may be just "available resources" in his eyes, Cheng Jing's world collapses. The person who once promised to "always be your junior brother" turned around and built a high wall of indifference; the friendship she once carefully maintained turned into a sharp blade piercing her spine. The laboratory is no longer just a holy place for the pursuit of truth, but has become a Shura field of human connection...
