Ma Zhuo woke up from a disturbing nightmare at five o'clock in the morning. At this moment, she had just finished her studies in Shanghai. As an intellectual, she had successfully returned to her hometown of Linjiang.After attending a meeting, she reunited with several familiar elders. However, facing the familiar but slightly unfamiliar faces around her, Ma Zhuo felt an indescribable sense of alienation in her heart.Despite this, everyone still enthusiastically welcomed her and talked about the pleasant scenery around the city center.

Although he was in a happy atmosphere, Ma Zhuo knew that he would have to deal with some difficult things when he returned.In this regard, Mr. Xiao expressed his willingness to lend a helping hand at any time and provide necessary help to Ma Zhuo.Later, Ma Zhuo met another female acquaintance. She took the initiative to say hello, but the other party's reaction was quite cold and she responded only out of politeness.The three of them came to the reserved restaurant to eat together. Mr. Xiao tried to ease the slightly awkward atmosphere and suggested that everyone order whatever they wanted.However, even though we were gathering with long-lost friends, there was still an invisible barrier permeating the dining table, making the entire party atmosphere slightly depressing.

On the way back after the meal, Ma Zhuo accidentally caught a glimpse of Xia Ze, her childhood sweetheart, in the car.This situation can't help but bring back Ma Zhuo's memories of the two people's past in 2006.At that time, they were both students, and Ma Zhuo made a special trip to watch Xia Ze's boxing match.While the people around her were cheering, she rushed to the ring worriedly and tried to dissuade Xia Ze.Although others were indifferent, she still went alone, but after her reminder, Xia Ze turned around and left with a smile.The two then had dinner together, but Xia Ze was obviously disturbed by the game and had no appetite at all.

After dinner, they rode home, but Ma Zhuo's mother suddenly appeared.To avoid further questioning, they pretended that nothing had happened and went home.After her mother left, she took off her sunglasses and earnestly persuaded Ma Zhuo to put on the clothes she had prepared for the party the next day.However, Ma Zhuo had no interest in such social activities and only wanted to concentrate on his studies.Faced with her daughter's stubbornness, her mother suddenly lost control of her emotions and severely accused Ma Zhuo of becoming useless by being associated with Xia Ze.

Despite his mother's strong objections, Ma Zhuo still insisted on accompanying his friends through the trough period after the exam, drinking milk tea and sharing their thoughts together.Later, she got her wish and spent happy time with Xia Ze again.On the other side, Xia Hua had a dispute with her parents because of her desire to open a hot pot restaurant, and even suffered unreasonable harassment from outsiders.At a critical moment, Xia Ze stepped forward to protect his sister, but accidentally injured her sister, causing the police to intervene.Ma Zhuo could only watch Xia Ze being taken away by the police car, with mixed feelings in his heart.
