[No getting back together after a breakup + the second male lead takes the lead + punishing scumbags and face-slapping + contrasting personalities + both leads are inexperienced]
A gloomy, deranged Buddhist devotee with an intense possessive streak vs. a gentle, poised genius designer
On the day Lin Qian goes to register her marriage to her boyfriend of seven years, she discovers he is still in the mandatory divorce cooling-off period.
And the person he's divorcing is none other than the junior schoolmate who has been clinging to him for three years.
Lin Qian chooses to break up.
Xu Moran: “Qianqian, how many days are we breaking up for this time?”
Watching the man brush it off, Lin Qian finds the whole thing utterly ridiculous.

After nightfall, Lin Qian is drugged.
Half-conscious, she begs a stranger for help.
The man's long-fingered hand grips her slender waist as he murmurs in her ear, “Big sister, long time no see.”
Lin Qian thinks their night of passion is just a coincidence.
Only later does she learn it was all part of the wolf cub's long-laid plan.

The Fu family has had only one son per generation. In Fu Zhou Bai's generation, he publicly announces that he is becoming a monk.
Everyone assumes the Fu family line is sure to die out.
Until one day, people see Fu Zhou Bai's treasured Buddhist prayer beads
wrapped around the ankle of a woman no one recognizes.
Standing beside her are fraternal twins who look remarkably like Fu Zhou Bai.
