Wu Hongyan is a female bailiff in a regional court of the industrial western provinces. Her grim job has not hardened her, even after years of dealing with women awaiting execution – more often than not, sentenced for crimes of passion. Every weekend, the 30-something unmarried woman makes a long train ride to the city for the Good Luck Matchmaking dance. Her romantic encounters end up forgettable and unfulfilling. She finally feels truly attracted to someone when she meets the mysterious Li Jun. But her heart drops upon discovering that his wife is actually one of her prisoners…
