Synopsis
Rich heir Wan Sheng Ren has only 100 days to find a girl he briefly encountered when he was young that he calls "Little Angel" or else his parents will force him into an arranged marriage in order to inherit the family business. The problem with finding his "Little Angel" is he doesn't know her name or remember how to go to the place where he first met her since he was only seven than. One day he sees on television a family run inn with the same flower logo as the handkerchief "Little Angel" left for him. He heads out to find his "Little Angel", but when he arrives at the inn he's not sure who exactly is his "Little Angel", so he decides to apply for a job at the inn in order to try and figure out who "Little Angel" is.[3]

Wan Sheng Ren is the heir to the Wan Sing Hotel Group. Despite his family's wealthy background, he is a kind and gentle person who like to dress casually, open to trying regular everyday people food and not afraid to work hard. However being an only child his mother has made a rule that Sheng Ren must marry by the age of thirty in order to inherit the family business. Since he has no future wife prospect lined up, his mother offers to set him up on an arranged marriage. Not wanting to go through that process he ask his mother if he can find his "Little Angel", a little girl he met when he was young who tended to him after he scraped his knee, but he never got the chance to ask for her name or remember how to go back to the place where he met her. Only thing he has to remember her by is a handkerchief that she used to tend to his wound. By chance one day he sees on television a travel program covering a family run inn in the mountains that has the same logo as "Little Angel's" handkerchief.
