Synopsis

The story begins with a court case taking place, in which Ke Zhen Yu played by Lego Lee is the defense lawyer for Wu Ji Rao played by Aggie Hsieh. Wu Ji Rao is accused of using a very large trophy to murder her husband Jiang Cheng Hao played by Ryan Kuo, who is a martial arts master that owns his martial arts training center. Mo Si Ming who is played by Kunda Hsieh is the prosecutor for the case. However, Ke Zhen Yu's lawyer license was then immediately suspended due to supposed evidence of him manipulating evidence to the case, which he is then unable to continue to defend Wu Ji Rao. As Ke Zhen Yu leaves the court house, he then spots an origami on the floor and keeps it with him. He is then shown moving to a more affordable apartment due to now being unemployed. The origami possessed supernatural powers, which would turn back the time bringing him several months into the past from 10:06 pm to 10:52 pm, which would then bring him back to the present time.

At first, he was unaware of this and had heard voices and noise and assumed his alcohol consumption was just affecting his mind, but one night when he was sleeping between 10:06 pm to 10:52 pm, he had woken up to see a woman Cheng Jia Le played by Nikki Hsieh who is a lying next to him asleep. The unaware asleep Cheng Jia Le unknowingly was grabbing onto Ke Zhen Yu. They had a few more encounters with each other afterward and then, later on, they would realize every night at 10:06 pm, the apartment would go through time travel bringing Ke Zhen Yu to several months back earlier, in which Cheng Jia Le was the tenant in that apartment in that past period and then at 10:52 pm, the apartment would return Ke Zhen Yu back to his present time, which explains why they see each other every night between 10:06 pm until 10:52 pm. In addition, all their apartment items would be overlapping with each other during this time frame, but the origami was the real culprit in doing these time travels, which they both were still not aware of.

Because of this, Ke Zhen Yu manages his best to try to change the past situations including trying to stop the murder of Jiang Cheng Hao, who also happened to be very close friends with Cheng Jia Le and even asked Cheng Jie Le to help, but it was not successful and the murder still happened due to lacking the clues needed to stop it despite their efforts and attempts, but the only difference was the time and date of the murder was altered thanks to their attempts to alter the situations surrounding the murder and Wu Ji Rao is still charged in his murder. As Cheng Jia Le's life continues in her time frame, she encounters the Ke Zhen Yu who is still a lawyer in her own present time and often is not very nice to Cheng Jie Le, meanwhile, the present Ke Zhen Yu begins to have memories of the past being altered including his past self having not so nice interactions with Cheng Jia Le and he begins to realize his past self was very egotistic and arrogant. Cheng Jia Le is aware the Ke Zhen Yu she sees in her own time is different from the future Ke Zhen Yu she encounters with in her apartment at night time from the time travel.

It is then discovered that Wu Han Wen, who grew up with Wu Ji Rao, but accepted each other like siblings was responsible for Jiang Cheng Hao's murder, especially with the clue of the cigarette bud being moved during the time of the murder, which Cheng Jie Le had noticed and informed Ke Zhen Yu who is several months into her future and they worked together to try solve the case during their time travel overlap every night, which altered many circumstances of the Ke Zhen Yu's past, which is Cheng Jia Le's present. Wu Ji Rao had known it was Wu Han Wen that murdered Jiang Cheng Hao with the large trophy, but has been protecting him, but she eventually becomes mentally insane and is placed in a mental health institution. The present time Ke Zhen Yu would soon discover that Cheng Jia Le would die from a deadly needle injection, from the culprit Zhang De Pei played by Yang Yong Wei, a martial student of Jiang Cheng Hao in an attempt to silence her from revealing the truth, but when the present Ke Zhen Yu is brought back to the past, which is Cheng Jie Le's present, he attempts to stop it, but he is stabbed with the needle instead and then Cheng Jie Le chases down and throws down Zhang De Pei to let the police arrest him. Cheng Jia Le, who was now already in love with Ke Zhen Yu of the future is holding onto him, but he disappears.

The series then only shows Cheng Jia Le's time life and she no longer is able to go into the future to see the future Ke Zhen Yu. The current Ke Zhen Yu in Cheng Jia Le's time frame is still a lawyer and thanks to the fact Ke Zhen Yu from the future working with the present time Cheng Jia Le to try to stop the murder, which was not successful and with trying to get the clues to the case, it caused a lot of alterations of the social circumstances and the Ke Zhen Yu in Cheng Jia Le's time frame still manages to be a lawyer. However, the current Ke Zhen Yu in Cheng Jia Le's time life begins having memories Ke Zhen Yu's several months into the future and his future encounters with Cheng Jia Le, which is due to the fact he had picked up the origami that Cheng Jia Le had in her pocket, which was dropped out during the whole fiasco with Zhang De Pei trying to kill her. The origami had existed in both Cheng Jia Le's time frame and the future Ke Zhen Yu, which brought them together during the time travel process and began to have something meaningful between both of them including their love. The now-current Ke Zhen Yu would eventually remember all of the future Ke Zhen Yu's encounters with Cheng Jia Le and they both eventually became a couple and would live together permanently.
