Zong Ying is calm, decisive, and sharp in her work, possessing an almost unwavering determination.

Their first encounter: he is her "Mr. No Rush," sheltering her with a black folding umbrella as he escorts her to the hospital. Their reunion: he is a tenant from another time, holding a rental agreement dated 1937.

Time and space intertwine as they meet in the quiet of the night. Their love, born in separate worlds, transcends the boundaries of time and space. Once kindled, it burns eternally. <<less
