In Shanghai in the 1930s, Shijun (Leon Lai) and Manzhen (Wu Qianlian) worked in the same factory and became lovers. Manzhen lost her father in her early years. In order to support the family, her sister Manlu (Anita Mui) sadly left her lover to work as a dancer to make money, and eventually married a married man Zhu Hongcai (Ge You). Shijun received an urgent family letter and returned to Nanjing, only to learn that his family had recalled him just to get him married. Because of his weak character, and because he could not wait for Manzhen's letter for a long time, Shijun finally married the well-matched Cuizhi (Wu Chenjun) whom he did not like. In Shanghai, in order to preserve her status, the infertile Manlu designed Manzhen to become pregnant with Zhu Hongcai's child, ruining the love between Manzhen and Shijun. After Manlu died, Manzhen devoted herself to Zhu Hongcai for the sake of her child. Two people who are destined to be together miss each other.
