The heroine Xun Sujuan graduated from an ordinary college at the age of 21 and worked in sales. At the age of 23, her relative who depended on her died and she was depressed for half a year. At the age of 24, she entered the education industry and taught herself design. At the age of 25, her alcoholic and gambling father died of stomach cancer. At the age of 26, she joined VueTek Technology Company. She got married at the age of 27 and divorced at the age of 28. Promoted to director at the age of 30, he is sensitive to the lack of love in his heart. He feels "unearned warmth" towards Curtain Call (ex-husband) and "sober sinking" towards Mu Huangdu. He wants to get rid of the "family shadow", but finds value in "being needed", pursues "irreplaceability" in the workplace, and emotionally longs to "not be abandoned".
The male protagonist Mu Youdu is the sole heir of three generations of the Mu family. He founded Chuanze Holdings at the age of 23 while studying abroad. He loves to hang out in clubs. He is paranoid and controlling by "throwing money and pestering" people he "likes". Before the age of 25, his credo was to "play the world" and there is nothing that I, Mu Hedu, can't get.
Summary: When the male protagonist doesn't know how to love, he meets the female protagonist who no longer believes in feelings. It's an old-fashioned and bloody development.
