In his previous life, Yang Yixin, who came from a poor family, was a recognized talent at Jiangcheng University. He believed in "the purifier will purify himself", refused to take sides, and disdained to join the camp.

He thought that as long as he didn't fight or grab, and kept his professional bottom line, he would be able to survive alone.

When his reputation was ruined, the only one who believed in him was his wife Cheng Zhiyun. The woman he owed the most to in his previous life was dragging her body, which was weak from years of toil, around. On that rainy night, Yang Yixin accidentally encountered a car accident and fell into the river. Before he died, he swore that if there was an afterlife, he would never commit suicide.
