This novel revolves around Xing Yi, a simple man who works as a delivery driver, spending his days moving between the streets, carrying parcels and carrying none of the world's burdens.
On an ordinary evening, as he was returning from his exhausting job, he witnessed a scene that would change the course of his life forever: a small child on the verge of being struck by a speeding car, while passersby stood frozen, caught between shock and helplessness.
Without hesitation, Xing Yi rushed forward like an arrow and pushed the child out of harm's way, heedless of what might happen to him.
The child was saved... as for him, he crashed violently to the ground and fell into a long coma, leaving behind the clamor of life, entering a stillness that was neither death nor life.
