Shen Dexuan and Zhang Yingxue are two completely opposite types of people. On the surface, Shen Dexuan is cold and restrained, rejecting all unknown risks, but in his heart he is extremely adventurous, prefers to explore breakthroughs within the red lines of scientific research, and is greedy for the ultimate sense of control. On the other hand, Zhang Yingxue has a bright and flamboyant appearance, and is greedy for all the fresh sensory experiences in the world. Her original family is broken, and she is plagued by academic shortcomings, which hides a deep-rooted inferiority complex. Her life is muddy and her only obsession is longing for her mother's approval.
A make-up exam brought two people with very different trajectories together unexpectedly. An unexpected pregnancy broke Shen Dechen's monotonous life and forced him to make the only out-of-control decision in his life - to marry Zhang Yingxue. For Zhang Yingxue, Shen Dexuan is her controllable replacement Bai Yueguang. She covets his perfect self-discipline, dignity and nobility, rushes in clumsily and wholeheartedly pleases her, but cannot see his gloom and ambition. And Shen Dechen only covets Zhang Yingxue's disguise of being docile, well-behaved, tolerant and partial, and maybe she doesn't hate his bright and flamboyant personality, and he can't see the inferiority and frailty in her bones. From beginning to end, the two loved each other as they imagined.
After marriage, warmth and games are intertwined. Under the surface, there is a fierce collision between the two people's positions, selfishness and true humanity. In the end, the trade-off came to an end, and the two divorced and went off to completely different lives. After the divorce, Shen Dechen has a bright future and a promising career, but he cannot break free from the shackles of his old love and is repeatedly pulled between regrets and obsessions. Zhang Yingxue completely fell into the clouds, broke up with her father, lost everything, and went to a foreign country to heal and rebirth alone.
Between the road ahead and the old love, how should Shen Dechen choose? Can Zhang Yingxue, who is embarrassed and injured, make a comeback and restart her own life?
