In a small city in northern China, Wang Cailing (played by Jiang Wenli), an older music teacher, is considered unattractive but possesses a natural talent for operatic singing, which makes her quite proud. Unwilling to live an ordinary life like those around her, she is determined to take root in Beijing. Zhou Yu, a worker from a steel factory, falls in love with Wang after hearing her voice on the radio and pursues her under the guise of seeking mentorship. However, this indirectly makes Wang fall for her cousin, Huang Sibao (played by Li Guangjie), who aspires to attend an art academy in Beijing but consistently fails the entrance exams. Huang considers Wang a kindred spirit in his troubled world. Later, believing their pure relationship has been tarnished by Wang, Huang moves to Shenzhen, leaving Zhou's renewed pursuit of Wang unfulfilled. When Wang thinks she can no longer find like-minded individuals around her, Hu Laoshi (played by Jiao Gang), who has had a lifelong fascination with ballet and is regarded as an outsider, enters her life. However, Hu's tragic decision to sever ties with worldly life further discourages Wang, making her realize, in her sadness, that the mundane life she had long resisted also has its beauty. At this time, Gao Beibei (played by Zhang Yao), who claims to be suffering from cancer and has little time left, approaches Wang, wanting her to help achieve her dream of participating in a youth singing competition in Beijing. After some hesitation, Wang decides to help her fulfill this dream, only to discover that Gao's story was fabricated. When Wang reaches a crossroads in her life, she becomes friends with a neighbor (played by Dong Xuan), whom she had previously overlooked, and after their brief friendship ends, Wang reconciles with the world in her own way.
