love in a dream...

A nested story. What's unusual is that most of the stories are reality nested dreams. And this story is a dream against a nested reality. Most of the story is actually a dream. The dream of a girl whose heart is broken by love and whose dreams are ruthlessly bound. In the dream, she is beautiful, sunny, and has a bright future. In reality, the people she can't love, in the dream, are completely weak and completely need her to rely on.

I watched it alone in the hotel at night, because it is a very new hotel, and it is not very popular yet. I never saw anyone in the elevator on the 50th floor...

People can deceive themselves in reality; they can also deceive themselves in dreams. But when dreams and reality collide, all the disguised shells will fall off. The sad song by the female singer is actually the heroine's true self.
