How Can a Sparrow Perch on a Wutong Tree

How Can a Sparrow Perch on a Wutong Tree Plot:

Su Xiaotang, an ordinary convenience store clerk, works until midnight every day to pay for her grandmother’s medical bills. A mistaken delivery sends her—wearing a pilled old coat—into the private cocktail party of Gu Shiyan, a高冷 (aloof) investment bank CEO. Among the sea of suits, she’s like a sparrow lost in a forest, mocked by wealthy ladies: “Don’t you know your place?” But Gu Shiyan suddenly grabs her wrist, shielding her with his suit jacket. No one knows this “unreachable wutong tree” (a symbol of status) once huddled outside her store on a rainy night, watching her give her last bowl of hot congee to a stray cat. No one knows this “unrefined sparrow” hides an art college admission letter in her bag—she gave up her dream because her grandmother said, “Family comes first.” When the sparrow’s stubbornness breaks through the wutong’s cold facade, they realize: “Matching” isn’t about status—it’s about saying, “I want to try, even if it’s impossible, just for you.”
