She grew up in a world wrapped in love. The air was filled with the sweet smell of cake, and her family told her that this was the "smell of love."
Bai Zhi had no doubts about it.
Until the years passed, the warm foundation stones in her life began to quietly loosen. The weight of expectations, the evolution of friendship, and the prophecy of "after we're gone" from her relatives that she once puzzled over... Each "love lie" was gently exposed by reality.
The white rose that once symbolized purity and protection also silently withered one petal on the windowsill.
This is a female growth epic that does not take love as the main line. It delicately depicts how a girl who grew up in abundant love faced the roughness and impermanence of life step by step. She will bid farewell to dependence, go deep into the wilderness of her heart, and learn to withstand the wind and rain alone.
Underneath the lies lies the truth of love.
After saying goodbye, I can only grow alone.
This is a story about loss, understanding, and ultimately how to rely on your own strength to bloom again from the ruins.
Intention: To explore the complete form of "love": it is not only a warm shelter, but also a preview of parting and the price of growth. How a soul wrapped in love can travel alone through the lost wasteland and achieve inner self-consistency and rebirth without relying on any salvation. This is not a pessimistic story about "love is a lie", but a profound story about "love is the truth" - its truth is that it contains sweetness and burden, protection and separation at the same time. True growth is to recognize and accept the complete truth and still be able to move forward alone.
