Yingnuo, a single mother in her early thirties, makes the difficult decision to entrust her five-year-old daughter, Diu Du to her estranged father. She journeys back to her small hometown in Jiangnan, where they encounter him. Ying Dahai, a man who had previously severed all ties with her and vowed never to reconnect, becomes her reluctant guardian. Yingnuo’s drastic choice is driven by her long-held dream of competing in the prestigious World Fondant Cake Competition abroad.

As the unreliable Ying Dahai employs various quirky tactics to prevent Yingnuo from leaving, their forced proximity sparks unexpected changes.
