Story summary

On a seaside bench, Shen Wei discusses a set of commercial photos with Xu Heng, who wants to remove construction barriers that affect the scenery so the images can be used to promote an upcoming travel launch. She decides against providing a version that could mislead visitors, choosing instead to photograph routes that are already open for use and clearly mark the unopened areas. Though the collaboration budget is reduced as a result, Xu Heng still accepts the new proposal, and a simpler set of visuals preserves expectations that reality can truly fulfill.
