One day, Ouyang's company closes for the summer and he decides to embark on an impromptu road trip with his childhood friend, Chuen. Together, they travel to a beach resort in Kenting, Taiwan.

At the resort, they meet Xiao-rong, a girl who works at a fruit stand. Ouyang is immediately smitten with her beauty and girl-next-door charm. Chuen encourages Ouyang to pursue Xiao-rong, but Ouyang is too shy and hesitant to make a move.
