Ai Meng is 10 years old, a timid child of mixed ethnic Wa and Han. Sports activities at school are his nightmares, and he prefers to knead clay figurines.

 

Ai Meng's mother is a professional woman and doesn't have enough time to spend with him.

 

Dad is a swimming coach and wants Ai Meng to be a brave man. He sends his son to practice taekwondo. Although this gave Ai Meng a strong physique, it does not change his timid nature. Instead, it makes Ai Meng imagine a confident and naughty partner -- Xiaolong.

 

During a kayak rafting in the rainforest, Ai Meng causes the kayak to hit the rocks due to cowardice, and his father's legs are broken. Ai Meng has to the rain forest alone to seek rescue.
