In September 1992, Chen Shuiming had just graduated from the architecture department of a university in Beijing and was assigned to Hainan Architectural Design Institute. However, his girlfriend of four years, Zhou Mi, stayed in Beijing to pursue her master’s degree, and the two spent their days yearning for each other. By chance, Chen Shuiming met Fan Xiaomi, a girl from Hunan who came to Hainan to be with her boyfriend, Zhou Jianping. Unexpectedly, Zhou Jianping died in a car accident while being chased for debts. Chen Shuiming sympathized with this girl, but Fan Xiaomi was a shrewd young woman who took advantage of and schemed against Chen Shuiming at every turn. Chen Shuiming didn't take offense, and the two gradually developed an indescribable feeling for each other.
