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 maybe it is in a subway.....

Some of these people's lives will take an interesting turn this day. A beautiful blind D.J. with 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; and it's as if they have been played by destiny, they have never met each other. But on this particular day, the cold-blooded Yun Xiang actually witnesses someone snatching Jingjing's handbag, and while supporting Jingjing, who had fell, 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 her blind stick, which had landed on the subway floor. 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, and also unknown to Yun Xiang, because, after all life is full of unknowns.

When Jingjing was little, she lost her parents and eyesight due to a traffic accident. Since childhood, she has faced all aspects of life optimistically. But this kind of girl also has to encounter injustice. When she arrives at the radio station after the incident, what greets her is ... the appearance of well-known D.J. Tan Li Na. In order to accommodate Tan Li Na, 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 Ming Kai had an affair with his assistant Wang You and indirectly caused his mother's death. Therefore, he hated his father, and proceeded to give up his good life to grow up in an orphanage. He thought that this was 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 his 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 with work, and 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 realized the fact that Cheng Kao likes Jingjing. Mingming vigorously works 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 borrow his umbrella.

Meanwhile, Yun Xiang's life appears to be more chaotic. At work, he clashes with his boss because of difference in opinions. At home, he is at a loss on how to face his father. His friends from the orphanage, Xiao Chen and Xin Hua provides him with much encouragement and love. But Yun Xiang is a person whose innermost feelings are sealed up, so no matter how hard his friends try, they cannot crack open his shell. 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 between them is more intense, and 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. The fact of the matter is, or was that Jingjing had a chance to restore her sight, because Yun Xiang's mother intended to donate her corneas to Jingjing before she died. Young Yun Xiang would not let anyone to touch his mother, and threatened 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, and after Jingjing is moved by it, she tactily consented.

But just when their relationship takes off, they are put to tough tests: Mingming objects to Jingjing being with Yun Xiang; and 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 with good intentions, so this not only increases the misunderstanding between father and son, it also puts tremendous pressure on Jingjing ...

All these factors saddens Jingjing, and wants to leave Yun Xiang. The obstinate Yun Xiang is unwilling to give up. Yun Xiang works very hard in saving his love relationship, but discovers he has a hereditary disease, and the chances of him recovering are slim. He knows he does not have long to live, and thereupon he signs an organ donor form to donate his corneas to Jingjing after his death because 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, is definitely possible. Thereupon he uses the last splendor in his life to polish his and Jingjing's love ... Jingjing is visibly touched, and both pledges 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 ...
