Over the course of a lifetime, through decades of changing fortunes, amid joy and sorrow, one must never lose sight of who one was at the start. This is an unconventional love story between a “white peacock” and a “show-off.” They fall in love at twenty-eight, but love each other as intensely as if they were eighteen. No one could have imagined that Bai Shenmu, the aloof “flower on a high peak,” the “white peacock,” would end up being snapped up by Hao Jingle, an outspoken “show-off.”
Hao Jingle says, “That peacock just couldn’t resist and ran right into me.”
Bai Shenmu says, “She was seduced by my looks, clung to me, and begged me relentlessly. I felt sorry for her.”
Hao Jingle says, “That’s right, I was seduced by his looks. And I still have to obey twenty-one house rules. Their family rules are strict.”
Life has dealt you countless slaps and applause, but someone has also given you endless sincere love and acceptance.
