After being forced to move out of her house in Taipei and the closure of the travel agency she was working for, Ru Mi lost both her source of income and house, not knowing when her next meal will be.
After receiving a phone call, Jin Yang was informed that his grandmother (Mei Fang) was sick and wanted to bring his girlfriend Rebecca (Katherine Wang) back to Taiwan with him to meet his family. However, Rebecca refused and in the end Li Jin Yang had no choice but to leave for Taiwan by himself. Under the encouragement of her friend and her future colleague, Gu Li (Ying Wei Min), Ru Mi returned to her hometown-Zhang Hua and started a small travel agency business with a small bus known as "Sweet Bus". After Ji Yang unknowingly helped Ru Mi to complete a new design template for the bus's exterior that was drawn by her son, Tian Yi Xiang, Ji Yang and Ru Mi meet again after ten years.
