The First Stir of Restlessness in Marriage

The First Stir of Restlessness in Marriage Plot:

Lin Xiaoman and Chen Mo, married for three years, have gone from "sleeping in each other's arms every night" to roommates who scroll their phones back-to-back. Until one day, Xiaoman finds a strange lipstick in Chen Mo's suit and catches him laughing with a woman in a floral dress at a café — she thinks the "restlessness" in their marriage has finally broken through. But after following him, she discovers the lipstick is a gift for his mother, and the woman in the floral dress is a pastry chef he secretly hired to learn how to make the caramel pudding she misses. Meanwhile, Xiaoman herself has been quietly reevaluating their marriage since reconnecting with her college "white moonlight". It isn't until late at night, when Chen Mo sleepily tucks her blanket and mumbles, "Xiaoman's feet are cold again", that she realizes: the so-called "first restlessness" is just the panic of two people secretly trying to warm their love in the dullness of everyday life.
