Xu Tang is a poor student selling small paintings at a street stall. One day, she meets Gu Shiyan—wearing an old coat with frayed cuffs, unable to afford even cheap paint. She assumes he's a "fellow down-and-out painter" and gives him all her savings (saved for half a year to buy a new easel), bringing him hot red bean porridge every day, saying, "I know the pain of painting." Until a huge poster hangs at the city's fanciest art gallery—Gu Shiyan, the "poor painter" she'd "supported" for three months, is actually a genius hidden in the industry for three years! Xu Tang crumples the porridge box paper and tries to run, but Gu Shiyan pulls her out of the crowd. He holds up the centerpiece of the exhibition—a painting of her squatting at the alley, handing him porridge with morning dew on her lashes—and his voice trembles: "Xu Tang, I painted 123 paintings without a heroine. Today, I can finally fill the gap."
