The Early Spring

After botching a job interview at a reputed agency, Shang Zhitao scrambles to find her footing in Beijing while befriending her new roommate.

At a celebration dinner for landing a new project, Nian steps in to help Zhitao. Meanwhile, a mistaken identity threatens the peace at Sun Yu's place.

After Zhitao escapes an assailant during a rainy mountain shoot, she and Nian must rely on each other when a landslide leaves them stranded.

A woman from Nian's past derails his dinner with Zhitao, while a chance encounter at a bar brings his growing jealousy to the surface.

After an unexpected night with Nian, Zhitao insists on keeping their relationship strictly professional despite his efforts to win her over.

Determined to distance herself from Nian, Zhitao applies for a job transfer, but his refusal to let her go tests the boundaries they agreed upon.

Zhitao tries to focus on work and avoid Nian, but a new project forces her to seek his help as jealousy begins to cloud their judgment.

While Zhitao earns praise for her database, Nian is suspended over a malicious complaint, prompting the two to go on a mountain retreat together.
