(Mutual flirtation between two leads + a Buddhist gentleman from Beijing’s elite circle + the second male lead’s desperate pursuit of his ex + sweet romance)
A refined, celibate Buddhist gentleman from Beijing’s elite circle, a madman and devilish obsessive beneath the surface VS a delicate beauty born with an alluring, seductive charm

On her wedding night, betrayed by her husband, Ruan Mianmian stumbled through its door in a drunken haze.
“Uncle, Gu Chen doesn’t want me anymore... Do you think I’m dirty too?”
The strap of her qipao slipped from her shoulder. As she tilted her head back, the beauty mark beneath her eye shimmered in the candlelight.
The Buddhist beads in Gu Wenqin’s hand stopped moving. His Adam’s apple bobbed. “Do you know who I am?”
“Of course...” Taking advantage of the liquor, she pressed close behind him, her soft, warm body against the cold beads. “You’re the Buddha who came to save me.”
