The day after Gu Shiyan is brought back to the Gu family, Gu Nian, the fake heiress who took her place in life, falls and ends up in a vegetative state.
Everyone thinks Gu Shiyan is responsible, including Zhou Yudong, who considers Gu Nian his white moonlight.
Later, the Gu family arranges for Gu Shiyan to marry Zhou Yudong. He contemptuously grips her by the throat:
"You're not even worth a single strand of Nian Nian's hair. From now on, you'll live in her shadow."
Knowing full well that Zhou Yudong sees her as an enemy and only agreed to marry her to humiliate her,
Gu Shiyan still accepts. She adapts to his tastes, cuts off her long hair with her own hands, changes the way she dresses,
helps him handle company affairs, and calmly endures all kinds of mistreatment.
Later, Zhou Yudong gradually gets used to having her around, but Gu Shiyan asks to call off the engagement.
She throws herself into the arms of his long-lost older brother, Zhou Lichen, and smiles more happily than ever before.
Only when Zhou Yudong sees this does he realize what jealousy feels like.
When they meet again, Zhou Yudong drops to his knees and begs her to forgive him, but Gu Shiyan is nestled in Gu Lichen's arms.
She smiles faintly. "Don't flatter yourself. I only got engaged to you to use you. How could you ever compare to your brother?"
Everyone knows that Zhou Lichen, a major figure in the business world, has died once before.
When he returned from overseas covered in scars, his face was full of viciousness, like a vengeful demon come to claim a life.
But no one knows that he has reserved all his remaining tenderness for a woman named Gu Shiyan.
They grew up together in an orphanage, and when he was on the brink of death, it was the thought of her face that kept him alive.
She is the whole meaning of his existence.
A melodramatic love triangle, the second male lead becomes the male lead.
The scumbag can get lost. The female lead is irresistible to everyone.
Theme: Be kind, unite and care for one another, and help each other through hardship
