Plot Li Qin Ai (Rainie Yang), a 31-year-old magazine photographer, is content with both her career and her relationship with her boyfriend, Zhou Li Yang (Johnny Lu). She has tried hard to forget her first love, Dai Hai An (Lan Cheng-lung), following their breakup 10 years prior. When Hai An unexpectedly reappears in Qin Ai's life, there are immediately noticeable issues with him. Firstly, he appears as his 18-year-old self from their youth and is “half-transparent”.
Qin Ai begins to wonder why she is the only person who can “see” Hai An and whether he is actually dead, appearing before her as a ghost. Regardless of the circumstances, it is clear that Hai An has no intention of leaving her alone and negotiates with Qin Ai to live with her. Is this Hai An's attempt to reconcile his past with Qin Ai, or will this strange situation cause Qin Ai to question the certainty of her future?
