In Beijing, which is shrouded in the epidemic in 2020, legal intern Xiaolan is working hard for the postgraduate entrance examination while enduring the exhaustion of a two-hour commute. Yuhang, a boy introduced by her friend Wang Qiang, gave her a touch of warmth in her wandering days with his gentle and considerate daily life - he remembered that she loved spicy food, and would bring hot porridge to her when she worked overtime, and even helped her sort out the key points for the postgraduate entrance examination. Xiaolan thought she had met the right person and looked forward to a future with him.
But after the postgraduate entrance examination, she returned to Beijing early full of surprises, but she discovered that Yuhang and another girl were closely dependent on each other, and behind all this, her friend Wang Qiang was actually pushing the situation. The cold water of betrayal extinguished all hopes. After Xiaolan cried bitterly in the cold winter, she resolutely cut off the relationship and devoted all her energy to her studies and career.
From a postgraduate entrance examination candidate who stayed up all night studying in the library, to a trainee lawyer who stayed up late to sort out evidence in a law firm, to a rising star in the industry who single-handedly won the 870 million job embezzlement case, Xiaolan completed her transformation in three years. Yuhang, who had betrayed her at the beginning, suddenly realized after losing her, and tried to save her in embarrassment time and time again, but only received Xiaolan's indifferent turn.
Later, Xiaolan met Chen Yang, who understood and supported her, and the two worked hand in hand to gain a foothold in the capital. This wrong encounter taught her: only by saying goodbye to the wrong person can she encounter the right scenery; only by relying on her own efforts can she live as a light that will never fade.
