This is a romance novel centered on the emotional journey of its male and female leads, with both perspectives represented. It does not fit the traditional, strict definition of either a male-oriented or female-oriented novel.
The story mainly follows Lin Yue and Lu Ze. Lin Yue is a junior copywriter and planner at an ordinary advertising agency, while Lu Ze is the heir to a business dynasty. They meet when they share an umbrella outside a convenience store on a rainy night. As work brings them into more frequent contact, their feelings grow. But Lu Ze's mother, Ye Wan, is firmly opposed to the relationship because she believes they should be socially matched. Lin Yue is forced to break up with Lu Ze and leave town.
More than a year later, a work project brings them back together, and their old feelings reignite. But the shadow of family pressure returns. Lu Ze struggles to balance love against his responsibilities to his family, while Lin Yue, after making a painful choice, leaves once more. Meanwhile, the Lu Group faces a business crisis, keeping Lu Ze busy with damage control. On her way out of town, Lin Yue gets into an accident, leaving the story on a cliffhanger. What follows will explore how they overcome their troubles and find their way back to love.
