- Male protagonist (original second male lead): Shen Xubai ("Xu" means quiet narration, which coincides with his silently observing and not public character; "Bai" means purity and magnanimity, which contrasts with Gu Jue's hypocrisy. The name is cold and clean, which is not common and has a gentle and distant temperament, which fits his silently guarding but restrained image)
- Original male protagonist: Gu Jue ("Jue" means the gap in the jade, which is a metaphor for the flaws and hypocrisy under his perfect appearance, and also means "decision", which fits his ruthlessness of doing whatever it takes to benefit himself)
- Su's father: Su Mingqian (elegant and steady, in line with the traditional image of an entrepreneur)
- Su's mother: Wenman (gentle and intellectual, reflecting her love for her daughter)
- Gu Jue's accomplice (former head of Shengyuan Group): Qiu Henian (the "Year of the Crane" seems to be longevity and auspiciousness, but in fact it hides a sense of scheming villain)
- Su's father's assistant: Li Ji ("Ji" means solid assistance, which fits his loyal and reliable setting)
