Lin Wanwan was taken in by Gu Chen, a military doctor in the Military Governor's Mansion, after her family's misfortune. Over three years, she secretly fell in love with this gentle yet distant "master". She hid her feelings in the daily herbal soup and the mended white coat, never daring to confess—until Gu Chen took a fatal bullet for the Military Governor and died, leaving only one order: "Guard the medicine warehouse." After Gu Chen's death, Lin Wanwan refused all chances to leave and insisted on staying in the mansion filled with their memories. She brewed the ginger tea Gu Chen taught her and polished his used stethoscope, until one day she found a stack of unsent letters in the old locust tree hole: the letters read, "Wanwan drank the bitter medicine, so I secretly put a date at the bottom of her bowl" and "Wanwan wanted to see plums, so I asked the adjutant to buy plum branches and hide them under her window." It turned out Gu Chen's distance was to avoid delaying her, and he had fallen in love with her long ago—but this mutual unrequited love never got to be said before life and death.
