Gu Xiaolin and Xu Jiajia are brother and sister, childhood sweethearts, and a couple who are about to get married. When Gu Xiaolin was ten years old, his parents were killed in a car accident. He was adopted by his neighbor, Uncle Xu, who treated him like his own son. However, Uncle Xu also died of cancer when he was 16 years old, leaving behind 14-year-old Xu Jiajia. Before he died, he left Xu Jiajia in the care of Gu Xiaolin and asked Gu Xiaolin to marry Xu Jiajia as his wife when he grew up. In order to repay Uncle Xu for taking good care of Xu Jiajia, Gu Xiaolin worked part-time while going to school. Xu Jiajia was admitted to college when she was 18 years old. To pay for her tuition, Gu Xiaolin dropped out of school and went to work. When she graduated, the two were ready to get married, but on the wedding day, Xu Jiajia eloped with her high school classmate Lin Fei. Gu Xiaolin found out that Xu Jiajia had been dating Lin Fei, but he was unwilling to let Xu Jiajia be snatched away by a yellow-haired gangster, so he wanted to snatch her back. Gu Xiaolin did a lot of things for Xu Jiajia, but there was still no way to make her change her mind. Later, Gu Xiaolin found out that Xu Jiajia was pregnant. He beat Lin Fei but accidentally broke his legs, which also caused Xu Jiajia to miscarry... Gu Xiaolin was sentenced to three years in prison. During this period, Xu Jiajia visited him once, but never again. Gu Xiaolin felt very guilty for them and wanted to be released from prison early to compensate them, but he contracted lung cancer because he worked too hard... He was eventually released from prison a year early, but disappeared. Three years later, he finally came back. He wanted to bless Xu Jiajia and Lin Fei and make up for them, but found that they didn't seem to be very happy...
