Synopsis
Huang Ye and Lai Di, both just dumped, are drawn together like magnets because their exes are now dating each other. Looking for a way out of heartbreak, they spend a chaotic week together: following their exes in a sorry state and breaking down in pain; singing karaoke, moving house and rushing all over the city; committing childish, impulsive "crimes" like accomplices, and warming each other's dark days like companions. In the end, after helping each other say a proper goodbye to their past relationships, the two are about to part as well. Will they meet again in their new lives? A girl who secretly waterproofs swimming pools meets a boy from 2008. Before the summer ends, how will she keep this boy, who is bound to disappear?
