Lin Xiaoman, a planner who burns the midnight oil to finish proposals, returns home under the moonlight every night. Her only comfort is the warm lamp left by Lao Zhou, the owner of the alley newspaper stand. When the stand is set to be demolished, Lao Zhou gives her a yellowed star chart—the keepsake of his granddaughter Xiaotang, who went missing ten years ago. To Xiaoman’s shock, the star trails she’s been photographing from her balcony match the marks on the star chart exactly. Following the star chart to a suburban observatory, she discovers Xiaotang’s diary: "When I catch that 'running star,' I’ll come back to light the lamp for Grandpa." It turns out Xiaotang disappeared while pursuing a rare comet, and Xiaoman’s presence is the sign of the comet’s return—that lamp is Grandpa’s unwavering wait for his granddaughter and the stars’ call to their "lost one."
