share time: 2026-04-04 06:10:17

Lin Wan has run a street food stall specializing in grilled snacks and sweet soups for ten years, clinging to the promise with her first love Chen Yu—she firmly believes he will return after making his fortune and marry her. She recreates the exact treats they shared back then, turning the stall into a shrine to their memories. Only when urban management officers impound her stall does she realize there are no photos of Chen Yu on her phone, no contact under his name, and even neighbors have no recollection of him. Touching her throbbing temple, she finally understands: the ten years of companionship were just hallucinations caused by a brain tumor. The last warmth of the grill’s embers on her fingertips can’t stop her from waking up to the harsh truth.
