Du Junning (Rebecca Lim), is a successful real estate agent. She is well known for knowing how to sweet-talk not only her clients, as well as her superior and colleagues.

When he had an accidental kiss with Du Junning, he became a lucky star - good things kept coming towards him such as winning the lucky draw and became a famous designer overnight. However, his luck has attracted all his relatives whom disagreed to take Jianan in when he was much younger, trying to gain some benefits from him.

Zheng Danle (Zhang Zhenhuan), nicknamed Cool Man, is Jianan's only best friend and the only one not affected by his bad luck.
