In the wet rainy season in Ningjiang, the door to family reorganization opens heavily. Nan Shujin, a cold and rigorous mathematics genius, was forced to become half-brothers with Jiang Aiyan, a silent and stubborn top student in physics. A barrier of order with perfectionism, and another carrying the scarred haze of the past, under the same roof, collided with frozen alienation and sharp hostility.
However, a sudden rainstorm and a tilted umbrella revealed the hidden scars of campus bullying; a mandatory competition team order bound two incompatible souls onto the same ship called "Provincial Competition". Under the cold academic debate is a fierce collision of problem-solving ideas; behind the harsh words are the iodine and band-aids delivered late at night. When the scarlet curses in the exercise book and the malicious collisions on the playground followed one after another, when the recorder became a weapon in despair, a cold "At least, you are not alone now" became the first glimmer of light that pierced the ice of silence.
In the daily campus life filled with the smell of old book ink, fungus hot pot and disinfectant, amidst the din of fireworks in Qingshi Lane of Ningjiang Old Town and the fragrance of leaf cakes on the covered bridge, two clumsy souls began to approach awkwardly. The competition is filled with smoke, family conflicts are undercurrent, and the confusion of adolescence is like the clouds that linger in the rainy season. Nan Shujin used his unique, ice-shelled protection, and Jiang Aiyan responded with his silent but tenacious response to jointly withstand the wind and rain from the outside world. The "CP-eating" sister Nan Shuyue and her best friend He Jiqiu, the poisonous-tongued An Xiali and the fungi-crazy Linghu Weichi also constitute indispensable colors in their world.
This is a story about ice-breaking and protection: watch how two scarred teenagers learn to get closer amidst the smoke of the sea, the friction of family, and the pain of youth. In their own way - it may be a cold paper crane covering the stains, or it may be a silent approach while sharing a pack of cucumber-flavored potato chips - melt the ice in each other's hearts, and sail together towards the future where the sun begins to bloom at the end of the rainy season. The rainy season is not yet over, youth is just in time, and love is their most unexpected but firmest answer to the problem.
Purpose: The work explores the importance of family relationships, especially family affection and love in the context of reorganized families. It shows the mutual understanding and support between family members, and how to find stability and love amid change.
