Growing up, Song Yan and Xu Qin were the best of friends. But as they grew older, their families began to see their friendship in an unfavorable light. Unwilling to allow their relationship to go any farther, Song Yan and Xu Qin were forced apart by their families, never to see each other again.
In the ten years since their forced separation, both Song Yan and Xu Qin have worked hard to build the life they’ve always wanted. As fire chief, Song Yan has dedicated his life to saving others. Oddly enough, Xu Qin has also made it her life’s work to save others as an emergency doctor. Though working in entirely different fields, it was only a matter of time before fate stepped in to reunite the former friends. Brought together by their work, Song Yan and Xu Qin aren't exactly thrilled to be reunited once again.
Working side-by-side, it’s easy to recognize the growth each has made over the years, but there’s still so much Xu Qin and Song Yan to work through if they’re going to turn this new relationship of theirs into something more. Do they have what it takes to overcome the obstacles before them or is their current relationship destined to be as fleeting as the last?

As childhood playmates, Luo Zhi and Sheng Huai Nan were nearly inseparable. Growing up, they attended the same schools and participated in the same activities, but as time passed their friendship slowly faded. Through high school, Luo Zhi focused more on her studies than anything else, and Huai Nan became nothing more than a distant acquaintance. Yet secretly, her heart still longed for the boy who made her laugh, all those years ago.
Now in university, it is merely by coincidence that Luo Zhi and Huai Nan attend the same school. Though no longer a part of each other’s lives, Luo Zhi can’t seem to forget her long-lost friend. Every glimpse she catches of Huai Nan makes her heart race, but with their lives heading in such different directions, the connection between them seems to have all but disappeared. Pining for a boy she has loved for fifteen years, Luo Zhi is resigned to her fate, accepting the fact that her feelings for Huai Nan will remain unrequited forever. But Destiny, it would seem, has other plans.
Finding themselves unexpectedly thrown together during an excursion in Red Canyon Valley, Luo Zhi and Huai Nan’s old friendship is rekindled and soon sparks of love begin to fly. But the meddling of others makes things complicated and a series of misunderstandings threatens to ruin everything. Can these reunited friends overcome the challenges before them, or will their new-found love fade before it even has a chance to bloom?
Adapted from the novel "Unrequited Love" (暗戀·橘生淮南) by Ba Yue Chang An (八月長安).
