In the 1980s, Xu Qinghe, a health school nursing student, and Zhou Yanchuan, a young machinery factory worker, fell in love. An accident framed Zhou Yanchuan, and an admirer used evidence as leverage to force Xu Qinghe to leave him. To protect his future, she tearfully lied that she had fallen out of love and broken up, giving up her job. Seven years later, now in a wheelchair and raising their daughter alone, she saved Zhou Yanchuan's grandmother, and the two reunited. The truth was revealed: she had sacrificed herself for him, and their daughter was his biological flesh and blood. The misunderstanding was cleared up, and the family of three reunited, healing regrets with love.
