Synopsis

A flourishing metropolis, the crowd bustling about, each one conjecturing a beautiful wish to wait for his or her fate. A beautiful story can take place anywhere, perhaps it's in the mall, perhaps it's in the cafe, or perhaps, it's in the subway.....

Some of these people's lives will take an interesting turn this day. A beautiful blind DJ w/ a beautiful heart, Jingjing is taking the subway to the radio station, and Yun Xiang, who is having problems at work, also happens to take this train home. The both of them have been in the same train several times, it's as if they have been played by destiny, never met each other. But on this day, the cold/cold-blooded Yun Xiang actually witness someone snatching Jingjing's handbag, while supporting Jingjing, who had fell, he becomes attracted by this refreshing blind girl unbound by conventions. He runs after the thief and gets Jingjing's handbag back to her, and also gives his hand-painted umbrella to Jingjing to be a temporary substitute for the blind stick, which had landed on the subway rails. Jingjing is very grateful, agreeing to meet again. Meet again, the hibernating seed watered by the spring dew, will cultivate into a bright, fresh flower. Will they meet again? It is unknown to Jingjing, it's also unknown to Yun Xiang, after all life is full of unknowns.

When Jingjing was little, she loss her parents and eyesight due to traffic accident. Since childhood she faces all aspects of life optimistically. But this kind girl also has to encounter injustice. When she arrives at the radio station, what is greeting her is.....the appearance of well-known DJ Tan Li Na. In order to accommodate Tan Lina, Jingjing's program was moved to 10 o'clock at night. One cannot imagine how this decision will create difficulties to a blind person's way of life, but she accepts it.

Since he was younger, Yun Xiang was under the mistaken notion that his father Lu Mingkai had an affair w/ his assistant Wang You and indirectly caused his mother's death, he hated his father, gave up the good life and grew up in an orphanage. He thought that this is the most positve day in his dispirited life, but when Yun Xiang pushes his exhausted body to anxiously paint draw Jingjing's likeness, he finds out his father is seriously ill in the hospital. He can not but take his complex moods to visit the father he has always hated.

Two people's destinies changed because of an acquaintance. There was even more inconvenience for Jingjing when she arrived at the radio station. Her advertisement executive older sister Mingming is very worried about her, not consenting on Jingjing going to work alone. But she is so busy w/ work, cannot do several things at once. Jingjing's boss Cheng Gao volunteers to take Jingjing to and from the radion station. But the ever so strong Jingjing persists that she wants to take care of herself. Mingming cannot stop her, and actually saw through that Cheng Kao likes Jingjing. Mingming vigorously work at getting them together, but it's impossible for Jingjing to have any feelings for her caring and talented boss because she wants to wait for the guy who let her borrowed his umbrella.

Yun Xiang's life appears to be more chaotic. At work he clashes w/ his boss b/c of difference in opinions, in life he is at a loss on how to face his father. His friends from the orphanage Xiao Chen and Xin Hua provides him w/ many encouragements and love. But Yun Xiang is a person whose innermost feelings are sealed up, no matter how hard his friends try they cannot open him up. Fortunately Yun Xiang is moved by Jingjing's evening program, allowing his chaotic moods to finally calm down.

Many accidentals make decisions on the inevitable. After all the twists and turns, Jingjing finally gets an opportunity to personally return the umbrella to Yun Xiang. Yes - they meet again. The second meeting, the feelings b/w them is more intense, the seed of love is rapidly being planted.

But when Yun Xiang takes Jingjing home, he meets a very familiar looking Mingming, unable to restrain himself in recalling past events..... In fact Jingjing had a chance to restore her sight, because Yun Xiang's mother intended to donate her corneas to Jingjing before she died. But young Yun Xiang would not let anyone to touch his mother, and threatens to bang his head on the wall if they do. Jingjing couldn't let that happen, and gave up on this matter in the end.

Yun Xiang regrets about his past stubborness. After taking this painful experience to heart, he calls the hotline number as "Xiao Lu" and under chance circumstances tells Jingjing of his regrets, and makes a sincere apology.

Jingjing is greatly touched by this one phone call of apology. Jingjing's program is on fire, because everybody is searching for "Xiao Lu." Jingjing's heart is similarly on fire, because "Xiao Lu" only wants to be by Jingjing's side — — Yun Xiang bravely tells Jingjing he loves her, after Jingjing is moved by it she tacitly consented.

But just when their relationship takes off they are put to tough tests: Mingming objects to Jingjing being w/ Yun Xiang; because of jealousy towards Jingjing, Tan Lina always launching attacks, and pretends to be "Xiao Lu" to hurt Jingjing; Xiao Chen, who loves Yun Xiang, is out to give Jingjing trouble, wants to break them up; Mingkai is worried about his son's happiness, doing bad things but w/ good intentions, this not only increase the misunderstanding b/w father and son, it also puts tremendous pressure on Jingjing.....

All these factors saddens Jingjing, wants to leave Yun Xiang. But the obstinate Yun Xiang is unwilling to give up. Yun Xiang works very hard in saving his love/relationship, but he discovers he has a hereditary disease, the chances of him recovering are slim. He knows he does not have long to live, thereupon he signs an organ donor form, to donate his corneas to Jingjing after his death -- he wants to be with Jingjing forever!

Yun Xiang believes deeply: it's very difficult to grasp life, but holding on to love, so long as you persist, it's definitely possible. Thereupon he uses the last splendor in his life to polish his and Jingjing's love.....Jingjing is visibly touched, both pledge to be at each other's side no matter how difficult it is.

As before life still has many unknowns.....can Yun Xiang recover? Can Yun Xiang and Mingkai overcome their misunderstandings? Will Mingming, Cheng Kao, Xiao Chen find their true love? Will Yun Xiang and Jingjing get everyone's blessings? More importantly, will Yun Xiang and Jingjing be able to witness the cultivation of the bright, fresh flower they planted.....
