Li Yunyan starts at a new company and earns her boss's resentment by refusing to give in to his unreasonable demands. He first lectures and puts her down in front of everyone, then assigns her discarded, incomplete data to deliberately set a trap in her performance review. When his repeated schemes fail, he organizes a company outing and sets up a drinking party, hoping to use drinking-table etiquette to force Li Yunyan to bow her head and apologize. Clear-minded and decisive, Li Yunyan exposes all of her boss's schemes in front of everyone, refuses to make a fake apology, and stands up to his moral blackmail. The boss's assistant, Shen Wenkuo, sees through it all and quietly supports her throughout. As they weather one crisis after another, feelings slowly grow between them. Li Yunyan fights her way forward, repeatedly overcoming her boss's retaliation and obstruction. She holds fast to her principles and boundaries, finds her footing in the complicated workplace, and gains both personal growth and tender love.
