Lin Xiaoman's "Birdie Bites Café" is a healing haven tucked in Wutong Alley—she keeps a parrot named Xiaoque that chirps "Stay happy!" and sells osmanthus rice cakes inspired by birdseed. Until Gu Mo, a quiet programmer, bursts in with red eyes, saying, "I can hear its voice"—he lost his hearing to workplace PTSD, and only Xiaoque's chirps can pierce his silence. They become a "temporary team" to protect Xiaoque, only to uncover each other's wounds: Xiaoman's mom has ALS, and Xiaoque was her mom's last gift—"a continuation of voice"; Gu Mo is developing an AI to help ALS patients "speak", and Xiaoque's vocal frequency is the final piece of the puzzle. When Xiaoque falls critically ill with pneumonia, do they use its vocal cords to let Mom "speak again", or gamble on a miracle of "living together"? Amid the rustle of sycamore leaves, they finally understand: the one you love is worth fighting for—"truly".
