72-year-old Lin Guodong suddenly asks his 50-year wife Zhou Xiufen for a divorce, insisting, "Our hearts have drifted apart; we can't go on." Zhou, furious, rummages through their old coal-picking gloves and calls him "heartless," only to find Lin's Alzheimer's diagnosis in his medicine cabinet. It turns out Lin has been forgetting things and picking fights deliberately—afraid he'd someday not recognize her, afraid she'd suffer caring for a stranger. When Zhou finds Lin under the old locust tree, he's caressing their engagement silver bracelet, murmuring: "I'm scared Xiufen will suffer with a fool." They don't divorce; instead, they move to a seaside cottage. Lin writes "I love you" on sticky notes every day and sticks them on the fridge. Even if he forgets everything else, he never forgets to make her feel at ease.
