The Early Spring

Shang Zhi Tao, an ordinary graduate with no workplace experience, unexpectedly joins one of the world’s leading advertising firms and quickly discovers how demanding the industry can be. On her first day, her sharp-tongued boss, Luan Nian, tells her to quit, but she refuses to give up. Through pressure and challenges, Zhi Tao gradually grows from a rookie into a capable professional—and along the way, falls in love with Luan Nian. After six years together, misunderstandings drive them apart, forcing Zhi Tao to leave without explanation. Years later, they meet again after she has returned to her hometown, where she now runs a restaurant and her own small event company, living independently on her own terms.
