Hoping that her daughter will successfully settle down somewhere overseas, Zhuo Rong's mother won't take "no" for an answer. Unable to convince her mother to let her pursue her dreams, Zhuo Rong has no choice but to do as her mother wishes. Or does she? After successfully convincing her mother that she has set off for distant lands, Zhuo Rong secretly returns home to begin work as a legal intern. Taking on her first case, Zhuo Rong comes face-to-face with her childhood friend, Wen Shao Qing (Tang Xiao Tian). Now a surgeon, Shao Qing isn't just Zhuo Rong's client, he's also her landlord and next-door neighbor. Tied together by the ever-tightening strings of fate, Zhuo Rong and Shao Qing find themselves drawing closer, despite their best efforts.
