A classic scumbag gong and pathetic shou story, with a wife-chasing-to-the-crematorium arc and a first love. Set in a bustling modern city, the story begins on a university campus and expands into the workplace and wider society. It features a vibrant college scene, busy workplaces, and glittering social gatherings. Lin Yu (shou): Gentle, reserved, kind, and deeply devoted. He has secretly loved Su Ran since university, giving him his whole heart. After being abandoned, he resolves to leave and grows through his pain.
Su Ran (gong): Handsome and born into a wealthy family, with a somewhat arrogant personality. Because of his first love, Zhao Yu, he overlooks Lin Yu's sincere feelings and only understands his own feelings after losing him.
Zhao Yu (the first love): Fragile in appearance but selfish inside, and skilled at pretending. He is the key figure who drives a wedge between Su Ran and Lin Yu.
