Rural youth Dongzi (Shi Yu) arrives in Wuhan alone to change his destiny and seeks refuge with his fellow townsman Gao Ping (Guo Tao), becoming a porter known as "the burden" by the people of Wuhan, earning barely enough to get by. Gao Ping, in pursuit of quick money, engages in extortion with others, but is injured by his accomplices midway. After recovering from his injuries, he takes Dongzi to a nightclub to find Ruan Hong (Wang Tong), hoping to use her to identify his accomplices for revenge. Ruan Hong is brought to their residence and becomes Gao Ping's lover overnight. Throughout their interactions, Dongzi gradually falls for Ruan Hong, but she desires a man who can change her fate. However, Gao Ping's destiny, like hers and Dongzi's, is not under his control.
