Su Linian and Cheng Jingyou meet by chance in Britain, each with their own agenda.
When they meet again in Beicheng, Su Linian brings her long-held grudge and enters into a love affair with Cheng Jingyou.
Su Linian tempts him: "Can we ignore the future and just talk about the present?"
Under her spell, Cheng Jingyou agrees: "Sure. We'll just talk about the present, not the future."
He has no idea that those words will determine how their story ends.
This romance, born of revenge, ends in tragedy.
In the year Cheng Jingyou loves her most, Su Linian drives his parents to the brink, then leaves without looking back.

Three years later, they meet again in Nancheng.
Cheng Jingyou says, "Niannian, long time no see."
Su Linian replies, "Mr. Cheng, I hope you've been well."
Cheng Jingyou once made a wish upon the stars and moon:
For all the years to come, may Niannian be safe and may everything go her way.
