The film features a stellar cast, including Louis Koo, Yuanyuan Gao, and Miriam Chin Wah Yeung. The story follows a love triangle between two former lovers, Cheng Zixin (Gao) and Qian Yilong (Koo), and a new addition, Fang Qiwei (Yeung). Cheng Zixin, a successful businesswoman, is still haunted by her failed relationship with Qian Yilong, a man who she believes had betrayed her in the past. Qian, who has always regretted his actions, wants to rekindle their romance but finds himself facing strong competition from Fang Qiwei, an intelligent and ambitious architect who also has feelings for Cheng Zixin.

As the three of them navigate their complicated relationships, they must also deal with work-related challenges.
