The story took place in the 1970s by the magnificent Yangtze River, in a city called Wuhan. A casual oral message led Xingzi to meet Xi Li - a man who would become her lifelong obsession. Like all beautiful stories, heart-wrenching feelings often start with small events. With his tall stature and remarkable talents, Li stood out like a crane among chickens in the small railway loading and unloading station. During his first check-in, Li cleverly saved Xingzi, who was late; when eating the "remember hardship" meal, it was again Li's intelligence that helped them both get away with it. Thus, in this small railway loading and unloading station where they studied and worked together, love quietly took root and sprouted.
