A promising young government official sent to support Xinjiang × a beautiful, kindhearted university student volunteering as a teacher
The story takes place in Shache County, a poor and underdeveloped small town in western China.
Bai Heng is a promising young official sent to support Xinjiang. His first assignment is to promote quinoa cultivation, but things get off to a rough start when the project runs into trouble after the seeds fail to sprout. After giving a work report at the county government, Bai Heng meets a young woman who has lost her way.
He doesn’t know her, but she has admired him for years.
Jian Qiuyue has arrived. Far away in the west, the affection she’d secretly harbored since they were young finally has the courage to unfold, piece by piece.
Together, they overcome difficulties and work up a sweat in Shache.
Bai Heng has always thought he was the first to fall in love, never realizing that she had fallen for him deeply long before he did.
Two years later, Shache County sheds its designation as a poverty-stricken county, and Bai Heng’s assignment in Xinjiang comes to an end. He returns home with honors.
At the airport, a girl waits for him at the exit, holding a bouquet of flowers.
Just like when they first met, he is dazzling, and she is secretly delighted.
This time, the two people who had been secretly in love have finally graduated.
