Ji Runrun, a sophomore in college, acts heroically and lifts a child who fell through the ice back onto the surface. But a school of fish knocks her into the lake.
When she wakes, a handsome, striking long-haired man is holding her in his arms. She thinks he’s the kindhearted person who rescued her from the water, but it turns out he’s a scoundrel.
The scoundrel! Not only does he force a kiss on her, he slanders her, claiming she is a madwoman who lusts after his good looks and clings to him day and night.
Ji Runrun is so furious she bursts into tears. “I’m not! I didn’t! It wasn’t me!”
When he was young, the Regent fell in love with an intriguing woman. In front of everyone else, she was cold-blooded and ruthless, but with him she was a timid, skittish girl.
He confessed his love, but after turning him down, she fled.
When he found her again, she was at the edge of a cliff, caught in a bitter standoff with the childhood friend and junior fellow disciple she loved but couldn’t have, and the subordinate who had deserted him yet remained entangled with her.
Her childhood friend and junior fellow disciple, who loved her in vain, stabbed her. Then the deserter, still hopelessly tangled up with her, struck her with a palm. Gravely injured, she fell from the cliff.
He rushed to her, but couldn’t even catch the hem of her clothes as she fell.
He refused to believe she was truly dead. He spent two years searching for her, then eight more bringing her back to consciousness.
But when she awoke, she had lost her memory.
That was for the best.
Reader’s Guide
1. This is not a story about an exceptionally powerful heroine, and it is not a strong-woman story. Neither lead is perfect.
2. The heroine is a crier, so the story contains many descriptions of crying.
3. The leads have incomplete information about each other. The misunderstandings will be cleared up later, and the hero loves only the heroine from beginning to end.
4. One-on-one romance, happy ending.
5. Set in an imaginary world, with a fictional plot. Every element is there to serve the story.
