After five years, Ning Xi returned to the place that had pushed her away — home. With a sister who turned her parents against her and made her childhood sweetheart betray her, the odds seemed grey. However, five years abroad had changed her, and she came home to fulfil her childhood dream of becoming an actress. Despite her evil sister still out to get her, tables will be turned. One day, after falling into one of her sister's schemes, she saves an adorable kid and found herself staying at his house to help him come out of his shell. Slowly, his father Lu Tingxiao began falling for her. This was before they realised how their lives had been intertwined all this while without their knowledge.
Lu Jingli was troubled when Lu Tingxiao did not react at all. He pressed the switch and the recording clip started playing.
Ning Xi: [Hey, you started drinking without me?]
Jiang Muye: [Didn't you say you want to stop? I'd just be drinking by myself anyway even if I waited for you!]
Ning Xi: [Fine! Please continue! Did you order juice for me?]
Jiang Muye: [Come on! This is a bar! How am I supposed to get you juice?!]
…
Lu Tingxiao's attention shifted to the recorder pen when he heard the ever-so-familiar voice of Ning Xi.
Lu Jingli let out a sigh of relief, then he wiped the sweat off his forehead and pressed the fast-forward button.
Ning Xi started asking some questions.
[Let me ask you. That day... Lu Tingxiao... he really... kissed me?]
