Eager to escape from his familial duties, Zi Xiang is sent to Taiwan for business negotiations but is immobilized by a sniper attack en route. He persuasively hires the capable assistant, Feng Jie, to employ Shao Peng as his caretaker, hoping to seize the opportunity to flee for freedom. Shao Peng, frustrated in job seeking due to his deafness and muteness, discovers he’s being used and angrily decides to leave; understanding the reason later, he expresses his empathy for Zi Xiang through sign language.
Gradually, Zi Xiang is attracted by Shao Peng’s perseverance and tenderness, particularly moved by his optimistic facade that masks his anger and insecurity about his deafness and his doubts about love. To protect Zi Xiang, Feng Jie agrees to act as a decoy, tricking the clumsy assassins led by the Xin family into making their move, which inadvertently allows Feng Jie to escape danger, sparking love. Love arrives suddenly, catching one off guard; yet, it also inspires bravery and growth. Just as they openly express their love in a moment of happiness, a lurking danger gradually closes in.
