The one thing the noble-born He Yunshu regrets most in this life is falling for Wen Shiheng, that stubborn, tight-lipped minister who rose from humble beginnings!
At the polo match, he kisses her by force and presses her to marry him, driven mad with jealousy. His eyes red, he roars, “You won’t marry me, but you smile at other men. Are you looking down on me because of my birth, too?” She slaps him across the face, shattering his delusions. “Wen Shiheng, I belong to myself. I’m not your possession!”
After their falling-out, she focuses on her career, determined to fulfill her mother’s dying wish and give women everywhere the means to stand on their own. Meanwhile, he rises step by step to become a ruthless minister with power over the entire court. Everyone says they’re sworn enemies.
Then an accident leaves her with amnesia after she hits a carriage shaft!

“Yunshu, don’t leave me. I’ll only listen to you!”
He Yunshu scolds herself for having no backbone as she shields her clingy puppy, but when she recovers all her memories during an ambush, she realizes that from the day he crouched down to wipe mud off her shoes, his obsession and madness had always been meant for her alone.
When the truth comes out, the puppy of a minister switches seamlessly into his other role and pulls her into his arms, his eyes filled with inescapable possessiveness. “Yunshu, don’t you dare leave me again.”
From a falling-out at the polo match to his pursuit of her after her amnesia, from court intrigues to standing together through life and death, it turns out that
