Five years ago, a love affair with disparate family status left Lin Xiao bruised all over. Under the heavy pressure of Lu Yichen's family, she left her hometown with a broken heart, thinking that she would never meet again in this life.
Five years later, Lin Xiao was forced to return to his hometown due to work, but unexpectedly reunited with Lu Yichen in the conference room of his new company. The former gentle lover has become a powerful group president, and the eyes he looks at her still contain unquenched flames and deep guilt.
Faced with Lu Yichen's clumsy compensation and fierce pursuit, Lin Xiao built a high wall and tried to cover up the turmoil in his heart with indifference. But fate has a way of playing tricks on them. Project cooperation makes them face each other day and night, and the sweetness and pain of the past are played out in turns.
What caught her even more off guard was that beside Lu Yichen, Lin Xiaowan, the daughter of the Lin family, was already standing beside her. This arrogant woman kept provoking, tearing open the scars she didn't want to touch.
Old loves are entangled, and new hatreds arise one after another. When family feuds, workplace crises and buried truths gradually surfaced, Lin Xiao discovered that some feelings never really fade, and some people are difficult to let go after all. Is this reunion, five years late, a continuation of their bad fate, or is it a second chance given to them by fate?
