Returned architect Chen Jianyu is tasked with redeveloping the old alley "Fuxing Li" in Hong Kong, only to encounter Li Shiqi—the owner of a family-run dessert shop who gave him a life-saving candy twenty years ago. Torn between the capital's tight demolition deadline and the old residents' memory-filled, warm daily lives, they go from rivals to partners, uncovering the alley's "living history": Republican-era love letters in wall cracks, old brass bells under eaves, handwritten menus in the dessert shop's kitchen...
