Due to her obesity, Mi Mei Li has low self-esteem and suffers in both her work and life. One day, she meets Xiao Liang, CEO of a diamond company, and falls in love with him. However, due to circumstances, she isn't able to confess her feelings to him. A car accident then changed her fate. After cosmetic surgery, the once obese Mei Li becomes a slim beauty and also changes her name to Mi Duo so no one from her past can recognize her. However, after suffering setbacks in both her relationship and career, she realizes that her physical appearance is not a "free pass" to love. She is no longer bothered about how she looks and sets her mind on becoming an accomplished jewelry designer. Her optimism attracts Xiao Liang, and he falls in love with her.
