Looking for Plum Blossoms in the Falling Snow

A heavy snowstorm in the twelfth lunar month sealed the old Binhai alleys. Lin Yan, after eight years of absence, returned to his hometown to find his grandmother, but suddenly reunited with his first love Shen Qinghan. The stares in the snow tear apart the dusty past: eight years ago, he walked away due to a fierce quarrel, thinking that she was compromising with reality because she disliked poverty and loved wealth. Little did they know that there was a blood feud between the two of them from the previous generation - Father Shen was suspected of framing Father Lin, leading to his unjust death. This secret grudge became an invisible shackles of their love. After the reunion, the fireworks in the old alley were intertwined with love and hate: Lin Yan glimpsed fragments of the truth from the neighbors' narrations, Shen Qinghan silently guarded his old house and grandmother, shouldering the family's guilt, and Chen Ziang, who had a crush on Shen Qinghan (his father was also a participant in the incident that year), tried to break up the two with threats of violence. From the support on the street on a snowy night, to the tenderness in the small flower shop, to the side-by-side confrontation when gangs come to visit, Lin Yan becomes more determined to rehabilitate his father and protect his lover. The winter plums have fallen, the snow has melted, and the old grievances of the previous generation have emerged. Chen Ziang's pressing steps and the revelation of family secrets have pushed the two to the forefront. This is not only a redemption of love and hate that spans eight years, but also a story about two young people in an old alley filled with fireworks, breaking through generational grudges, fighting against worldly obstacles, and using courage and affection to melt the frozen winter love of the past.
