Miss Jiang, whose once-powerful warlord family had fallen on hard times, runs into the second young master of the Lu family, who has just returned from studying abroad. She admires her childhood friend, a university professor, but he doesn't return her feelings. Just after coming home, the young master witnesses the pathetic spectacle of a female student pursuing her teacher. He steps in to help, and she tells him they are strangers who just happened to cross paths. She has no idea he fell in love with her at first sight.
He follows in his father's footsteps to become a patriotic businessman, while she takes up her pen as an upright, uncompromising journalist. They remain by each other's side through every storm.
From bustling Shanghai to the water towns of Jiangnan, from a small city in the southwest to Hong Kong, the people around them leave one by one. Only then do they understand the words: “Life is nothing but one farewell after another...”
It's really beautiful, with a touch of beauty and happiness!
