Tao Le (Dawn Yeoh), Ye Yutong (Candice Liu) and Yu Lingzhi (Michelle Chia) are best friends since young.

However, this ambition turned the two friends against each other as the jealous Yutong begins thwarting Tao Le's plan as she tries to revive her grandmother's restaurant.
At the same time, a love triangle develops between Tao Le, Lingzhi, and Fang Youfang (Dai Xiang Yu), a tenant living under Tao Le's roof. The relationship is made complicated when Lingzhi's boss, Hu Yingbang (Chen Hanwei) enters the picture.
