[Both leads are each other’s only one / Flirty pampering / Intense push and pull]
Chi Yao returns as a fashion icon, disguising herself so flawlessly that she fools everyone, except Li Yan.
After he sees through her, Chi Yao asks, “Was my acting not convincing enough?”
The man smiles faintly. “It’s because I know you inside out.”
Chi Yao: “...”
Everyone says Li Yan married his unattainable dream girl’s substitute. Then one day, the unbending ruler of the capital drops to one knee in public to put a shoe on his wife.
From then on, everyone in the capital’s elite circles says Mrs. Li must have some serious tricks up her sleeve.
Someone tries to stir things up: “Does Mrs. Li know Lord Li has an unattainable dream girl?”
Chi Yao smiles radiantly. “I know. It’s me.”

The old Li Yan: “You can leave me only over my dead body.”
The later Li Yan: “Baby, I’d die without you.”
Chi Yao might never have learned that the wolf who loved to bite her could one day put away his wild nature and let her tame him into a dog, if she hadn’t “died” once.
Li Yan once believed love meant possession, confinement, and drawing a cage around someone. Later, he lifted her up, indulged and spoiled her, and let her run wild in the sky, cherishing her so completely that only he could catch her.
