Lin Shutong, a partner in a translation company, was betrayed by his first love when he was in college. He is cautious about love but still maintains warmth; Zhou Chengyan, a gold medal lawyer, wraps his sincerity with indifference because of his mother's strong control. The two were unexpectedly bound together when they were handling an inheritance dispute for a mutual friend. From being "enemies against each other" to growing in love, they were torn apart when it was revealed that Zhou's mother had indirectly led to Lin's father's bankruptcy. On one side was the mother who had nurtured her for ten years, and on the other was her heart-to-heart lover. Zhou Chengyan struggled between morality and emotion; Lin Shutong used the delicacy of a social master to resolve crisis after crisis during the self-examination of "should I forgive?" The process was interspersed with hilarious scenes such as "an oolong date caused by a mistaken delivery" and "being photographed pretending to be a couple for a drunk friend". In the end, influenced by Lin Shutong's belief in "choosing every word to protect the truth" in translation work, Zhou Chengyan faced his mother's showdown. The two overcame misunderstandings and hurts and embraced each other with the attitude of "it takes pain to understand how to cherish".
