The law student is the sole heir to a wealthy family business, is athletic, and blessed with great looks and charisma. His mother also has her sights set on a wife for him, the beautiful and kind He Yi Qian (Tiffany Hsu), a medical student. But instead, Guang Xi falls in love with Liang Mu Cheng (Ady An), a new employee in his school cafeteria with an infectious zest for life despite growing up as an orphan. But when a tragedy forces Guang Xi to suddenly undergo brain surgery, his mother tells Mu Cheng that he will not have any memories of his past after the surgery and forces Mu Cheng to leave him. Six years later in a rural village, Mu Cheng lives a quiet life with her son, Xiao Le (Xiao Xiao Bin). But then Guang Xi, now a high-powered attorney, arrives in the village to serve out a court-mandated community service and befriends the two with no memory of his past with Mu Cheng. Can a strangely moving piano concerto stir up the lost memories of his love for Mu Cheng and help him understand why he feels a special bond with her son?
