She, Ruan Lanmin, was as ordinary as a faint little flower in a vast sea of blooms.
He, Liao Zhuoyu, had been born with an enviably handsome face, a formidable air, and almost superhuman talent. He excelled in every way, standing above the clouds and looking down on the world below...
He ruthlessly plucked her, smearing the pure white of her outer petals and staining her pale orange bloom red. At last, one day, she withered. Her delicate petals sank into deep water, and she fell silent. Only then did he belatedly realize he had lost everything... Yet he had no idea that, elsewhere, she was slowly changing, reliving the love story of Lady Li and Emperor Wu of Han. She could not accept Emperor Wu because he had the same face as him, but in the end, she still fell for his deep devotion...
When they met again, she was proud and clever, and he was gentle yet terrifying.
But Liao Zhuoyu knew that Ruan Lanmin saw him as a stand-in for the man she loved. He wanted to win her love back. He said to her, "You are a champagne rose with an extraordinary will to live. Falling in love with you is the greatest happiness of my life, and missing you is my sweetest pain. You are the one I love most!"
