Gu Qingyuan was once a prodigy, adored by everyone around him.
But at eighteen, his seemingly perfect life shattered completely.
Depression, anxiety, psychosomatic symptoms... He fell from his pedestal and became the tragic beauty everyone pitied.
During the year he took off from school, he met many people:
A dance prodigy who had pined for him for ten years, a wise confidant who said, "You don't have to possess it," a spoiled and obsessive red rose, and passersby who lit up his life for a moment.
They all said they loved him, but none of them could heal him.
Until he saved another soul who was about to jump from the roof of the medical school building.
Yun Shu looked at the light in his eyes and murmured, "...It's too dazzling."
Later, reborn from the ashes, Gu Qingyuan mastered "circular medicine," saving lives with silver needles in one hand and amassing a fortune with the other.
He is a gentle, compassionate physician who heals countless people, and the unforgettable old flame in the hearts of countless women.
But when the light of the world shines on him once again,
he gives his one and only devotion and attention to the girl who once told him, "The light is too dazzling."
"Yun Shu," he said, kissing the beauty mark beneath her eye, his voice as tender as a wedding vow. "Marry me. I'll care for you and love you for the rest of my life."
