The novel presents a bizarre picture of life in the West. Fen, Kathly and Xiaoyi, three women, almost simultaneously fell in love with the 27-year-old Lu Ming, a Western man and a well-known novelist. However, fate ruthlessly played tricks on them. Xiaoyi suffered an accident, Fen ran away mysteriously, and Kathly drank again when she was about to get final happiness. The changes of the times, the dilemma of ethics, the contradiction between love and the world, and the successive blows of separation and reunion made Lu Ming learn from the pain and finally understood the words Fen left before leaving: "The morality of an era often determines the mental crimes of some people in this era." So he resolutely gave up his great future and decided to return to his hometown to do the work of curing stupidity.
