Zhou Qi and Gu Linche have been each other's only rivals since high school.
After competing for twelve years, they regarded each other as a yardstick and climbed to the top in the competition.
Until that car accident on a rainy night, Gu Lin'an, Gu Linche's most beloved brother and Zhou Qi's most cherished junior, left his heartbeat in Zhou Qi's body forever.
After that moment, Gu Linche's grief turned into venomous hatred, and he launched an all-round commercial stranglehold on Zhou Qi.
Carrying the weight of his life and overwhelming guilt, Zhou Qi moved forward stubbornly despite the pressure.
They thought that the only thing left in the relationship was hatred.
But when they were forced to join forces to fight against foreign enemies, they discovered that beneath the hatred was a deep-rooted care and an indelible tacit understanding.
When alcohol burns away reason, and when arguments turn into kisses, the relationship, which began with competition and was ruined by tragedy, slips into a more dangerous and irresistible abyss.
However, family opposition, past scars, and pressure from public opinion followed one after another.
Zhou Qi chose to let go, but Gu Linche would rather be the enemy of the whole world.
When the heartbeat of the old enemy resonates in the chest, is it a continuation of the painful curse, or is it a prelude to redemption?
[Twelve years of fighting, and the rest of my life with my heart beating.

Purpose: To explore the boundaries of trauma, responsibility and love through the transformation of the relationship between Zhou Qi and Gu Linche from competition and misunderstanding to symbiosis. The story does not emphasize the "sacrifice" itself, but focuses on how the survivors continue to live with guilt and pain after the loss. The intention is to express: life cannot be replaced, and love cannot be continued with hatred. The real redemption comes from facing trauma, accepting reality, and re-choosing each other and the future in the midst of brokenness.
