The story takes place in the 1970s, during the winter in Beijing. That year, the cold was particularly bitter, with the howling north wind blowing the accumulated snow on the roadside, stinging people's faces like knives. Despite the freezing weather, it couldn't stop the figures racing and spinning on the frozen surface of Shichahai Lake. On the rosy, laughter-filled faces of young people, youth was vibrant and exuberant. And so, their story begins in that sea of ice.

Xiao Chunsheng, a child from the military compound, made his way to the library that had been closed for three years. It was filled with sealed books. Xiao Chunsheng jumped through the window secretly, taking advantage of the uprooted tree outside the window. He saw snowy footprints on the floor and unfinished foreign language and medical books on the table, with a beautiful bookmark tucked in between the pages. Curiously, Xiao Chunsheng put the bookmark away and quietly went to his own spot to read.

Tong Xiaomei, the vice commander's daughter, also lived in the military compound. She climbed through the window into the library as usual and noticed someone had been there before her. Without thinking too much about it, she began reading and took notes as she went along. Ye Guohua was riding his bike on Gulou Street when he was deeply attracted to a girl coming towards him. He stood there, gazing at her as she boarded the bus, and hurriedly chased after her. He continuously waved to catch the attention of the girl on the bus, but the people on board thought he was a lunatic. However, he persisted with enthusiasm. Suddenly, the bus driver slammed the brakes, causing Ye Guohua to fall to the ground without being able to react in time. The passengers on the bus burst into laughter, but Ye Guohua paid no attention, got up, and continued chasing the bus.

Xiao Chunsheng read for hours until noon. He took out the dumplings he carried with him and ate them heartily. Tong Xiaomei accidentally spilled ink from her pen onto the book, and she couldn't help but exclaim. The sudden sound startled Xiao Chunsheng, who, in a panic, knocked over his lunchbox. Tong Xiaomei was frightened and flustered, while Xiao Chunsheng quietly approached to see who it was. Tong Xiaomei quickly hid.

The administrator often heard sounds in the library and suspected it was haunted. He called the security captain, and together they opened the sealed door. Inside, they saw footprints covered in snow and followed them to investigate. Worried that Tong Xiaomei would be discovered, Xiao Chunsheng intentionally threw the book on the ground, diverting the attention of the administrator and the captain towards him. Seizing the opportunity, Tong Xiaomei escaped through the window while Xiao Chunsheng only caught a glimpse of her figure. Xiao Chunsheng admitted that he often came here to read and had been doing so for half a year. If they dared to report him to the authorities, they would undoubtedly be accused of neglecting their duty. After careful consideration, the administrator and the security captain decided to let him go. Before leaving, Xiao Chunsheng found a nursing book and placed it on Tong Xiaomei's desk, tucking a note inside as a bookmark.

The Shichahai Ice Rink officially opened and, as in previous years, attracted many troublemakers and ruffians from the city. They were not giving in to each other and showcasing their skills on the ice, while the worker patrol team stood ready, prepared to prevent the young people from fighting. Zhao Xiaohui, dressed beautifully, arrived.
