After her mother falls ill, Lin Yi Ran leaves her job in Beijing and returns to her hometown, where she takes the civil service exam and becomes part of the Economic Development Office in Taohua Town. There, she witnesses the decline of the traditional Xuan paper industry, once represented by the thousand-year-old Xuan family, now struggling to survive. Determined to help preserve this heritage, Lin Yi Ran launches new projects — from developing Xuan paper notebooks and securing wallpaper orders in Beijing to organizing a cultural festival celebrating the Four Treasures of the Study.
Through her efforts, Lin Yi Ran not only revitalizes the local Xuan paper trade but also rediscovers her own connection to her roots — growing from duty to genuine affection for her hometown. Along the way, she meets Xuan Lu, an innovative yet misunderstood Xuan paper artisan devoted to cultural innovation. Realizing they share the same ideals, the two join forces to forge a sustainable path for the future of Xuan paper and the culture it represents.
