Five years after their breakup, Jing Mian runs into her ex at a drinking party.
The poor boy he once was has become an industry up-and-comer, surrounded by admirers, with his beautiful fiancee at his side. He's the picture of a winner in life.
She, meanwhile, is just an ordinary employee dragged along by her boss to drink and keep them company. She sits quietly in a corner, gazing up at his dazzling brilliance.
As the party is about to end, she plucks up the courage to go over and raise a glass.
Yan Mingyi takes a glass from his female companion and clinks it against hers. His words are half-mocking: “Miss Jing, you'd better understand where you stand.”
Jing Mian swallows down the ache in her eyes and drains her glass.
Nobody knows that after the party ends, Yan Mingyi sits on the hotel balcony, silently smoking one cigarette after another as he watches the direction in which she left.

Jing Mian has always thought Yan Mingyi hates her. So when he suddenly becomes her direct supervisor, she carefully avoids any contact with him.
But the more she avoids him, the more impossible it becomes to stay away.
Then one rainy night, as she's hailing a cab alone by the roadside, someone suddenly yanks her into the back seat of a car.
In the cramped space, Yan Mingyi pins her against the seat.
He gives a cold laugh, then bends down and bites her earlobe. His dangerous, alcohol-scented breath sweeps over her.
“Just what does that man have that I don't?”
“If he's really that great, you wouldn't be giving me this chance to take advantage of you.”
