[Depressed, headstrong female writer vs. refined, scheming male professor]
[White moonlight + both devoted to each other + marriage of convenience + mutual healing]
“Do you still remember me?”
Xu Tunan, preparing for the postgraduate entrance exam, suddenly receives a message from Shen Xianzhi, the high school underachiever. A chill runs down her spine. She barely knew him, and his intentions were usually anything but good, so she brushes him off with a few perfunctory replies and ends the conversation.
Over a year later, while filling in for a friend, Xu Tunan discovers that the professor at the lectern is none other than Shen Xianzhi. She can't help suspecting that the now-successful Shen Xianzhi has come to take revenge on her.
“Tunan, let's meet.”
Things unfold in a way Xu Tunan never expected. Shen Xianzhi hasn't come to take revenge at all. He's come to ask her to marry him.
“I'm ill. I can't be with you.”
Xu Tunan is prepared to end her own life at any moment, but then Shen Xianzhi comes along, stubbornly refusing to leave her alone. He brings the first ray of light to her bleak life, though she has no idea that he has a dark side of his own.
Shen Xianzhi ultimately underestimates Xu Tunan's resolve. They soon break up abruptly, and when he sees her again, she's like a withered skeleton.
This time, he decides never to let go again, even if theirs is only a marriage of convenience, even if she hates him, as long as she can live to a ripe old age...
