When a rookie at work runs into his icy boss, an unexpected sweetness begins to blossom during an out-of-town assignment.
Fresh out of college, Meng Yue volunteers to work in the damp, sweltering city of Wu for a daily allowance of 100 yuan. He expects a miserable, lonely stint, but instead meets his boss, Zhai Xu: a man who became a project manager at just 28, seemingly distant yet thoughtful in every detail. From an awkward first meeting to an accidental hotel mix-up that leaves them sharing a room, Meng Yue’s clumsiness and sincerity gradually melt the walls Zhai Xu has always kept around himself.
The story follows Meng Yue as he goes from a confused newcomer to finding the courage to face work and life under Zhai Xu’s guidance. It also shows how Zhai Xu is gradually warmed by Meng Yue’s sunny nature and candid affection, learning to lower his guard. Beneath the sweltering summer sun, their hearts quietly draw closer along the sunset boulevard in Wu, beginning a limited-time summer romance that starts with work and ends with them falling in love.
