A gentle, calculating hero vs. a heroine who is warm on the outside and cold within
[Rebirth + personal growth + mutual pampering + new male lead + fictional setting + one-on-one romance]
One by one, her friends die before her eyes. The boyfriend she cherishes as dearly as the full moon ultimately chooses his future career over her.
Jiang Lingyi tries to think of every reason behind Lan Zhiyuan’s decision: family considerations, outside pressure, and the restraints imposed on him.
But when she hears him say he is giving her up with her own ears, her heart still aches.
Yuran, whom she considers a sister, turns out to be the mastermind behind it all.
Before she dies, Jiang Lingyi learns the whole truth.
She hates herself for being slow to catch on, for trusting others too easily, and for being powerless.
The past flashes before her like a slideshow, finally settling on an image of the six of them smiling radiantly.
“I’ll never... never see such beautiful flowers again.”
She closes her eyes, and a tear falls from the corner of one eye, landing on an inconspicuous stone.
No one notices the faint glow the stone gives off the moment the tear touches it.
When she wakes again, Jiang Lingyi discovers that she has returned to the age of nineteen.
This time, she only wants to live for herself. She will smash the Yu family’s lofty arrogance to pieces.
But her strength alone is nowhere near enough. When she realizes that no matter how hard she tries, she can’t shake the Yu family’s solid foundations, she can only drown her sorrows in drink.
Then she unexpectedly meets Leng Yinuan, the man who can change her life.
The two hit it off and become partners.
But after the Yu family falls, he ends up falling in love with her.
“Let’s never meet again. It’s been a pleasure working with you.”
“No. I think we’ll see each other again.”
