The story revolves around a Chinese translator and an Italian underworld heir, locked in a tumultuous and complex relationship. He initially disguises himself as a professor to deceive her, appearing gentle but actually a cunning and ruthless wolf. The female lead is delicate yet strong; her growth arc is realistic and she is very intelligent. The second couple is an unconventional romance between a rebellious young master and an Asperger's genius girl. It's a battle of wits between a cunning, fox-like boy and a seemingly gentle but actually strong-willed girl. Two storylines, both protagonists are virgins, and it has a happy ending.

    In her past life, the female protagonist was married to the wrong man and abandoned by her husband to bandits. She then committed suicide by hitting her head with a knife. After her death, she became a ghost and watched as the powerful minister Jiang Xun, who had spoiled her since childhood, sacrificed his own life to avenge her. The portrayal of her deep love but inability to express it, and the unbearable pain of watching her die, was extremely well done. There is also a sweet storyline where she is reborn to make amends. The story is a mix of sweetness and angst that is very addictive.
