[Dual male leads + male “other man” + split personality + rekindled romance + healing + younger love interest + evenly matched leads]
The love interest has a split personality. His primary personality is aloof and quiet, while his secondary personality is adorable and clingy, but incredibly good at fighting! (It may get a little melodramatic.)
Three years after they split up, Zhao Siyan arranges a chance encounter.
The person before him is completely different from how he used to be. The first thing he says is, “Mr. Zhao, I'm not like you. I have to earn money to support my family, and I have a child.”
Zhao Siyan laughs in exasperation. Fine, they can get married. He doesn't care.
Until one day, he discovers another man by Jiang Ting's side.
Consumed by jealousy, the two trade vicious words.
The next time they meet, Jiang Ting is lying in the bathroom, having slit his wrists in an attempted suicide...
After Jiang Ting's second personality awakens, he seems delicate and fragile, the sort of person who inspires pity. Zhao Siyan is always careful to protect him.
That is, until Jiang Ting kicks three burly men to the ground. Zhao Siyan, heart aching, pulls him into his arms and says, “Don't be afraid. I'll protect you.”
Zhao Siyan is stunned.
Only then does he realize that Jiang Ting's willow-weak appearance was all an act to play along with him.
