Plot of the Novel
When Jiang Cheng, a city boy with high academic aspirations and goals to touch the sky, discovers the truth of his family, he finds his life falling apart. With a foster family left behind who doesn't want him anymore and a newfound family in the steel mills/gangchang who is more stranger than a father, Jiang Cheng spirals down a depressive rabbit hole where he feels trapped and wants to leave.
Until, in this strange environment where thugs roam the streets and a wasted father smokes away his life at home, he meets Gu Fei, and his little sister Gu Miao.
thus begins their story of freedom and redemption, hope and love where they chase the light together.
