Desperately trying extend his music career, he ends up in the isolated Geng Hai Village under strange circumstances and meets the "Planting Goddess" Tian Li Yun. Dong Ming, a neat freak and a guy that has "city cancer"—an obsession with city living—can't get used to the natural habitat of the Geng Hai Village. However, under the guidance of Li Yun, he not only falls in love with the self-sufficient village, but also falls in love with the strong and determined Li Yun. When a dangerous crisis threatens the village, Dong Ming faces the choice of standing by or abandoning Li Yun and returning to the city to regain his long-lost music dream.
