Striving in the Millennium Era

Year 2000. China's coastal cities are exploding with opportunity, and Du Lin refuses to play it safe. Against her family's wishes, she abandons her secure job and perfect match to chase her dreams in Shenzhen alone. Everyone calls her a fool—until she becomes the success story they can only watch on TV. Meanwhile, Qin Xu has life figured out: work less, enjoy more, stay comfortable. But the day he saves Du Lin, his carefree existence shatters forever. Two opposing philosophies collide in an era of transformation, where ambition meets contentment and neither will emerge unchanged.
