Guan Wen, who had successfully promoted to a foreign company and was known as the "difficult to deal with customers with a thousand knives", chose to resign naked on the eve of her 33rd birthday due to the aftermath of the workplace. She didn't expect the road to restarting her career to be quite bumpy, and after multiple interviews were disrupted, she had to choose a newly opened mall. At first glance, she jumped from the second party to the first party, but in fact, this shopping mall had been neglected for a long time due to various reasons that have hindered investment. In addition, she also encountered her former college lover, Ding Ning, who was cold faced and hot handed in the workplace, and made many demands and criticisms of her. The collaboration between the two went from entanglement to ambiguity, then from breaking the ice and holding hands to a sudden decline. Emotions were mixed with too much adult world measurement, and Guan Wen was in a dilemma. She also didn't want Ding Ning to compromise excessively and sacrifice his career for her. After careful consideration, she still chose to take control of the decision on her own. At the same time, Guan Wen's two best friends, retired athlete Chen Xuanxuan and outdated female star Jing Zhiqiu, each encountered their own challenges in life: one was challenged in a long-distance love run for several years, and the other had a red light on their marital status. How were they going to win the battle of life?
