Once a high school star figure, Zhang Qi fell into the trough of life due to failure in the college entrance examination, making a living by delivering food. Carrying the heavy burden of his father's serious illness and family debts, he repeatedly faced misunderstandings, beatings, and harassment, while also encountering the reunion of an old flame, family pulls, and friendship ties. Under the successive heavy blows of life, he always adhered to his bottom line, making a living with his own hands, protecting his family and close friends in times of crisis, and finally understanding that the true counterattack of life is never getting rich overnight, but still refusing to give up on becoming a better version of oneself while mired in the mud.
