The first volume swept through like a raging storm, consuming years of Su Wan's ardent love. After a heartbreaking ending, she resolutely leaves Shen Jin and escapes the walled city of Haicheng, a place filled with pain. She sheds her former humility and obsession, focuses on building her career, and establishes herself through her outstanding abilities, slowly piecing herself back together. She learns to control her emotions and let go of love and hate, believing that for the rest of her life she and Shen Jin can forget each other and never cross paths again.
But only after losing her does Shen Jin become engulfed by a surging tide of regret. Once too proud to admit his feelings, he used coldness to hide his affection and carelessly squandered Su Wan's wholehearted love, repeatedly pushing away her sincere devotion. Only after she had gone for good did he recognize the deep love he had long concealed in his heart. The high-and-mighty powerbroker of the business world is consumed by a long, agonizing regret, tormented night after night by what he lost and the chance he let slip away.
Fate gives them no chance to bring things to a complete close. A business partnership brings the two of them face-to-face again at work. Old lovers reunite, but everything has changed. Shen Jin sets aside his sharp edges and clumsily, stubbornly tries to get close to Su Wan, doing everything he can to make up for his past mistakes. But the old wounds are real, and the disappointments and hurts remain vivid. Su Wan cannot bring herself to let down her guard, and meets his belated devotion with layer upon layer of caution.
Before the old misunderstandings can be fully resolved, new crises follow one after another. The schemes of others and the gossip of society stand between them. On one side are feelings from the past that refuse to fade; on the other is the fear of making the same mistakes again. A storm sweeps in once more. Will this long-overdue pursuit leave them endlessly hurting one another in love and hate, or can they overcome their scars and find a home in reconciliation?
