Jiang Jinyue, doted on by her four older brothers, a military commander, a tycoon, an occult expert, and a hospital director, was quietly cherished by her eldest brother’s classmate, Lin Zhiyuan, from the day she was born. Taking the role of her best friend’s older brother, Lin Zhiyuan stayed by her side, accompanying her from childhood to adulthood. He guarded her in silence while carefully putting his “growing-up plan” into action.
With her family and Lin Zhiyuan looking after her, Jiang Jinyue devoted herself to calligraphy, the guqin, traditional painting, and tea ceremony, growing into a talented, multifaceted young woman. Along the way, she endured betrayal by friends, an accidental kidnapping, memory loss, and other hardships. To keep her safe, Lin Zhiyuan joined the military and rose from a new recruit to division commander and then army commander. He even took on undercover missions and willingly bore the burden of being misunderstood.
Over the years, the two endured separations and reunions, facing crises side by side. Together, they uncovered an international arms deal, exposed a mole among the top brass, and defused a political crisis. Their feelings grew ever stronger as they weathered every storm together. Meanwhile, everyone in the Jiang family found their destined partner.
After graduating, Jiang Jinyue teamed up with her best friend Lin Jianshu to establish the Yueshu Studio, using “culture + finance” to support small cultural and creative businesses and preserve intangible cultural heritage. Lin Zhiyuan remained at his post in national defense, and the two were finally reunited in the capital. Their secret love, spanning many years, ended in a happy life of passionate love together.
