[Modern sweet romance + Healing and salvation + Both leads are each other’s only love + Career growth]
A reserved, impossibly handsome doctor in a white coat × a wounded yet healing-focused career woman
One rainy day, Ye Yushi, drenched and disheveled, stumbles beneath Su Jingxi’s umbrella, shattering his quiet, orderly world. She seems like sunshine to everyone else, but beneath the surface she carries childhood trauma, is plagued by nightmares every night, and feels worthless in love.
Su Jingxi is a 28-year-old genius of traditional Chinese medicine. At a glance, he sees her insomnia, poor circulation, and hidden pain. “Give me your hand.” He steps in decisively. With nourishing breakfasts in the morning and calming herbal soup late at night, he patiently treats her body like a doctor. When her ex-boyfriend won’t leave her alone and the shadows of her family weigh on her, he holds her hand tightly. “Don’t be afraid. I’m here.”
Without batting an eye, he buys a wedding dress worth 350,000 yuan. “My bride deserves the best.” On a romantic night of first snow, he drops to one knee and proposes: “Marry me. Let me be your lucky star for the rest of your life.” He accompanies her back to her hometown, working in the fields to pick corn in a silk shirt. When they encounter someone vile, he quickly takes her away. “You don’t have to forgive them. I’ll protect you for the rest of our lives.”
From City A to a mountain village, he carefully helps heal her badly wounded heart. She rises from a junior brand planner to deputy manager, determined to stand at his side. At their wedding, he lifts her veil and promises, “Ye Yushi, meeting you is when I finally understood the meaning of life.” She knows that this gentle, strong traditional Chinese medicine doctor has healed her deepest wounds with his quiet protection and unwavering devotion.
She wakes from the dream. The musty smell of her rented room stings her nose, and half a cup of cold medicine sits on the table. There is no Su Jingxi, no wedding dress, no roses beneath the first snow and a sea of stars. The warm dream that lit up her darkness and offered her salvation has vanished without a trace. Was it salvation, or only a dream?
