Plot
editChen Zi Tong (Puff Kuo) is down on her luck. She was once a promising taekwondo[2] athlete with hopes of competing at the Olympic Games, but she suffered a knee injury inflicted by a scheming friend and a disloyal boyfriend that made her turn her back on her sporting ambitions. Chen still dreams of returning to competition, but has been forced to take on a job as a worker at a startup delivery company where she meets its young, successful CEO Fang Zhi Sheng (Jiro Wang). She manages to land a job at his company's head office, but Fang soon discovers she is not that interested in him. However, Fang Zhi Sheng suffers from hemophobia and is scared at the sight of blood. Slowly, the unconventional duo begins to form a bond over this disease. Fang helps encourage Chen to start rehabilitating her injury and return to training while she helps him confront his fears.
