In high school, Xu Lingfeng and Li Xian, who grew up in an orphanage, were good buddies. They are inseparable good friends from Lin Miaoer, whose parents are divorced. Xu Lingfeng and Li Xian both like Lin Miao'er, but Lin Miao'er only likes Xu Lingfeng.
After graduation, Xu Lingfeng and Li Xian went to college, while Lin Miaoer dropped out of school due to low financial ability. Many years later, Xu Lingfeng and Li Xian graduated and became successful in their careers. By chance, Li Xian met Lin Miao'er, who had become a prostitute, and took her away. Later, he opened a bar and let Lin Miaoer manage it. At this time, Xu Lingfeng ran away because his wife was cheating on him, and he met Li Xian by chance. At this point, the old friends finally reunited.
Xu Lingfeng heard from the bar security guards that they called Lin Miaoer sister-in-law (actually it was just a misunderstanding caused by Li Xian chasing Lin Miaoer), so although he loved Lin Miaoer deeply, he could not pursue her. Lin Miaoer still has concerns about her past. Therefore, Xu Lingfeng and Lin Miaoer, a pair of hard-luck lovers, have a hard time expressing their feelings.
Li Xian's Li Company competes with Chen Company. In order to annex Li Company, Chen Company bribed the police to arrest Lin Miaoer and threaten Li Xian. Xu Lingfeng and Li Xian cooperated with the police and found Lin Miaoer. Later, Li Xian was killed by someone who broke the brakes of his car. Lin Miaoer thought Li Xian was killed because of herself, and then committed suicide by taking poison. On her deathbed, Lin Miaoer and Xu Lingfeng confessed their feelings to each other, and the two finally understood each other's feelings.
Xu Lingfeng was angry that Chen's company had killed his brother and woman, and vowed revenge. In the end, Xu Lingfeng's car collided with the president of Chen's company, and they both died.
A tragedy ended here.
