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.
"I didn’t do anything,"Lu Tingxiao answered. There wasn’t the slightest hint of anything unusual in his emotionless expression.
"Is there something wrong with my sixth sense then? Not possible…"Baffled, Lu Jingli scratched his head.
At last, the meal ended like that.
Ning Xi felt that eating this meal was more tiring than fighting a war; she had to be on her guard every second.
After the meal, Ning Xi immediately stood up and started clearing the table. "I’ll wash the dishes!"
Lu Jingli finished the last sweet and sour rib, and spoke with his mouth full. "Let me do it!"
"It’s fine, it’s fine, I'll do it!" Ning Xi scrambled to do it; if she didn’t find something to do, she would go crazy.
Lu Jingli looked apprehensively at Lu Tingxiao next to him, and said hurriedly, "How can we let you wash the dishes after you worked hard to make them! I ate the most, of course I should be the one to wash the dishes!"
