She is recognized as a model mistress in Beijing. She is stuck in a loveless marriage and her heart is as dry as a well.
He was a poor and talented scholar with a good reputation at Heshan Academy. He used his body as a bait to destroy her marriage bit by bit with his own hands.
He was her husband in name only. He had a white moonlight in his heart and respected her like "ice". He didn't wake up until she was about to leave.

Gu Jingen stood in the corridor and looked at the young man in crimson official robes in front of him.
The poor scholar of the past has long changed his appearance.
Standing opposite him now was the hot new man in the court.
"Master Gu," Wei Yu said, his voice neither high nor low, "I'm not here today to argue with you or anything."
"Then what are you doing?"
Wei Yu was silent for a while, and then said an answer that Gu Jingen had never thought of in his life:
"I'm here to ask you. Can you make her live well? If you can, I will never appear in front of her again. If you can't - then it will be my turn."
