Dong Yong, a young man born in the Eastern Han Dynasty, who craves for adventure instead of focusing on his studies, which displeases his parents. The Seventh Fairy Maiden, daughter of the Jade Emperor, comes to Earth to meet her sister's former love, scholar Lao Xinrong, by enrolling herself in the school where Lao works and chance on one of his students, Dong. Eventually, Dong and the Maiden fall in love, which is forbidden in Heaven and also repeats the tragic yet touching history of Dong's teacher and the Second Fairy Maiden. At the same time, Dong, the Seventh Fairy Maiden, and their friends are on a mission to stop another star-crossed lovers, Dong's fellow Shangguan Haoqi and Xiang Xuehai, a civet cat deity in human form, before their quest for freedom and selfishness inadvertently triggers an apocalyptic event. After their opposites repent from their evil ways, Dong endures a series of trials to win the approval of the Maiden's family. The Jade Emperor ultimately sees Dong's worth and allows his daughter to marry the mortal, but on the condition that they will only be together for a hundred days. Months after she left, the Maiden given birth a baby boy in the celestial palace, and her family asks Guanyin to entrust the Maiden's newborn son to Dong. Despite their separation, Dong Yong and the Maiden vow never to stop loving one another, even if it means to wait for thousands of lifetimes.
By the time of 21st century China, Dong has been reincarnated as a contemporary young man. At a street corner in Shanghai, Dong Yong's present avatar meets the Maiden once more, who has once again settled in the mortal realm as a contemporary young woman, suggesting that she has forsaken her immortality and heavenly status.
