This is a work about men, full of male hormones, greed, betrayal, promises, friendship, true love, deception, human nature, life and death... It depicts the grievances and hatreds of four men born in the 1980s from 2004 to 2016. They are close friends who grew up in the alleys of South Beijing. In their youth, they made crazy bets. Some bet on money, some bet on life, and some bet on a lifetime of happiness. The four people, like the four suits in a playing card, are closely related but have different destinies.

2004 was their zodiac year. A lot of things happened that year, and it was from then on that a chain reaction changed their lives.
The hero, Nathan Qin, was born in a famous family, but his family fell into decline due to historical reasons. He grew up in an ordinary family and entered society too early due to poverty. In 2004, he spent 37 days in the detention center for gambling, and his girlfriend (a Beijing sassy girl with a distinctive personality) who he had lived with for 4 years broke up with him because of this. Later, he met a girl with lemon scent on her hair. After many twists and turns, he got her, but lost everything in 2016. After several separations and deaths, he finally realized the truth.
Fatty, Spade, a legendary figure, stirred up waves in the gambling world, won millions of fortunes but also lost his life. He fell in love with a nightclub lady, but by mistake married her younger sister.
Gabriel, Meihua, an unruly young man with perfect looks, a strong man who never cares about women, burst into tears when facing Nathan Qin after being thrown into prison.
Mason Ouyang, Fang Pian, is a smart but greedy person who will do anything to achieve his goal. However, man proposes, God disposes, and he remains silent forever in the small ward.
What happened in these twelve years? Human greed, desire for money, friendship and betrayal, true love and deception... a cycle of time condenses several lives. The so-called legend is nothing but reincarnation in the dark, perhaps it was destined when they took the first step.
"Black, red, plum, square" are the four suits in playing cards, and also represent four men and four kinds of life.
I have seen 40-year-old men trapped in love, and I have also seen 20-year-old girls playing around;
I have seen people who gamble hundreds of millions of dollars and live a life of drunkenness and despair, and I have also seen heroes who are defeated by a penny;
I have seen youth fade and faces become old, and I have also seen faces that remain the same for twenty years.
I have seen great sorrow and great joy, and people become rich overnight. I have also seen people leave their homes and go their separate ways...
In this world, people come and go, the moon waxes and wanes, who cares if the relationship is deep or shallow?
The hero got angry for the beauty, and from then on, her every frown and smile became his dream;
The world is unpredictable and the past has changed in the blink of an eye. How many thousands of years has it been since the dream of the earthly mortal world was broken?
Justice will be judged by human nature, so why bother with tears choking your throat and wetting your pillow?
Lost thoughts, lost ties, forgotten memories, hurt past,
Who is willing to bend down and pick it up?
I can't see all the right and wrong, gratitude and resentment,
Good fortune and disaster often happen in a moment, and cause and effect will eventually become a cycle!
