It's a story of arranged marriage followed by love, an 8-year age gap, a long-standing unrequited love, a male lead with a slight inferiority complex, and a male lead who has lost his leg. Si Yao's father was in a serious car accident while taking Xiang Xingzhi to the high-speed rail station; he died on the spot, and Xiang Xingzhi lost his right leg. Overnight, Si Yao's world collapsed. As a junior high student, she had to go live in her grandparents' city. Si Yao's love or affection was undeniable, but Xiang Xingzhi wasn't. He didn't understand his own feelings, hiding the little girl behind him for years. For Xiang Xingzhi, she was the best medicine during countless days of phantom limb pain. He repeatedly looked at the emails Si Yao sent him to get through the difficult days. He simply liked her without realizing it. If he didn't love her, he wouldn't be so flustered and afraid when she was angry. Xiang Xingzhi gave a very somber and slightly mocking smile: "If I didn't do it, I probably wouldn't have been able to save my left leg either." So, after Si Yao recounted that happiest time, Jiang Xinyue understood that this Si Yao was the "little girl" Xiang Xingzhi had hidden behind him.
