Beijing Spring Night

share time: 2025-12-03 06:01:46

Lin Xiaoman, an advertising planner who worked overtime until midnight, hid outside a convenience store drinking hot congee to calm down after her proposal was completely rejected by the client. She accidentally took the camera bag of Chen Mo, a photographer sitting next to her——it was his 'last thought' for coming to Beijing to find his ex-girlfriend. To return the bag, they walked through the old alleys in the Second Ring Road for half the night: passing by an old stall selling sugar melons, hearing cats meowing in the hutongs, and talking about their loneliness hidden in the bustle——Lin Xiaoman was afraid that she would still be 'not good enough' even after trying her best, and Chen Mo was afraid that he would forget how to 'start over' because of his obsession. When the spring wind carrying the fragrance of magnolia blew over, Chen Mo suddenly pointed at the old locust tree at the alley entrance and said, 'Look, I took photos of its dead branches last year, but now it's sprouting.' Lin Xiaoman looked at the new buds on the branches, took out her phone and sent a message to the client: 'I want to revise a proposal about'reunion' instead of 'loss'. In the end, they stood under the streetlight laughing, neither mentioned 'see you next time', but the answer was already hidden in the wind.
