While many families gathered for reunion dinners during Spring Festival, Wuhan electrician Luo Haoran chose to stay on duty to keep the city's lights on 🔌. But his sacrifice came with a heartwarming surprise: a handwritten love note from his wife, discovered tucked in his work uniform!
Luo, who has worked in Wuhan's power sector for over a decade, told colleagues he initially mistook the folded paper for a receipt. Instead, he found words that 'made the overtime worth it'—a tender message praising his dedication and ending with 'Come home safely, my hero ❤️.'
The story has gone viral on Chinese social media, with netizens calling it 'the real-life plot twist we needed 🥹.' While frontline workers often miss holidays, this reminder that love fuels resilience is hitting home globally. As one commenter wrote: 'Romance isn’t dead—it’s working the night shift to power a city.'
