Synopsis:
Gu Li is an opponent of the rat race. The moment she graduates, she escapes the big city and returns to a small town nestled in the mountains. All she wants is to sew clothes, make dolls, and enjoy a peaceful life far from the world.
But life insists on going against her! It wants her to taste the bitterness of love!
Aside from being ridiculously handsome, Song Zhiyuan has calculated everything else in his life to turn out just right. He scored two points above the cutoff for his dream school on the college entrance exam, then found himself a heavenly job after graduation, one with winter and summer vacations but no lesson planning. He has so much free time he can spend it however he likes.
But his beautiful, happy life comes to an end when he reunites with Gu Li, the drunk who once earned him the label of "scumbag."
He thought a handsome face would be enough to win over a woman who cared about looks. He never expected this dramatic woman to insist on making him taste the hardships of life!
Other people spend money pursuing love. He wears out his hands! Flowers, gifts, and sweet talk are no match for getting up early and staying up late to build her kid a wardrobe and a bed!
He even starts to wonder if he accidentally signed up for a craftsman's training course!
A little scene:
For Gu Li's birthday, Song Zhiyuan gave her a complete dollhouse he had built by hand, and furnished it with the doll clothes she had made.
"It's missing a doll, isn't it?" Gu Li said. Song Zhiyuan immediately picked her up and put her inside.
She rested her face in her hands and smiled like a flower in bloom. "Am I your cutest little one?"
Looking at her at an enormous scale, he delivered a cutting reply: "Cuteness and you have nothing to do with each other!"
"Song Zhiyuan, if you can't sculpt the cutest little one in the whole world, don't even think about coming into my room!"
He regretted his moment of bravado. Could he even finish sculpting a lump of clay in a day?
Theme: Never forget your original aspirations.
