Seven years ago, Lin Shen, a leader in the law school, and Su Wan, a sunshine girl from the journalism department, wrote a chapter of pure first love at Ningzhou University. However, on the eve of graduation, the Su family suffered a sudden change - her father was involved in a financial scandal, and in order to protect her daughter, her mother, under misunderstanding and coercion, forced Su Wan to sever ties with Lin Shen and leave her country. Su Wan, who had no time to explain, hurriedly left a letter and disappeared from Lin Shen's life as if she had evaporated. In the past seven years, Lin Shen has been burdened with the pain of being "supposed to be poor and abandoned", and with an almost masochistic work intensity, he has created an "invincible myth" in the cold and rational legal world, becoming the cold and aloof chief partner of Hengyuan Law Firm in Yungang City. Su Wan, who was living in the country of Jialuo, struggled to survive with the help of businessman Gu Yuanzhou, and eventually transformed into a well-known war photographer who recorded the vicissitudes of the world, but he still could not let go of his guilt and unresolved knot with Lin Shen.
Fate made them meet again at a business reception in Yungang City. The former lover is now a business leader and an estranged photographer. Su Wan is forced to interact with Hengyuan Law Firm, especially Lin Shen, because of her work. The scars and lingering misunderstandings that have not healed for seven years make every contact full of temptation, deliberate alienation and uncontrollable throbbing. At the same time, career collisions ensued: Lin Shen became the legal sharpshooter of Hengyuan Group's business rivals, and Gu Yuanzhou, Su Wan's benefactor and her guardian who had admired her for many years, also intervened strongly as a competitor.
In this complicated whirlpool, Lin Shen's soul-stirring declaration was, "If that person had ever appeared in the world, everyone else would have become a makeshift person. But I don't want to make a change!"
