Li Rui, heir to the Marquis of Zhenguo, was the man every woman in Yun wanted to marry. He was peerlessly handsome, with no equal. Yet at twenty-five, he had never taken a wife or even kept a concubine. He usually showed no interest in women, leaving the women of Yun both enamored and exasperated.
Just as everyone began to speculate that the heir had a hidden ailment and was destined to die alone, he suddenly had a ten-year-old son.
The women thought they finally had a chance to become his son's stepmother, but little did they know that the heir would remain unmarried for the rest of his life, raising Yun's finest son alone.
[The Male Lead's Story]
The year Li Rui turned twenty-five, he avenged his great wrongs and established a successful career. Just as he decided to continue his family line, a beautiful woman brought him a ten-year-old son.
From then on, Li Rui could only learn what the woman looked and sounded like through his son's paintings, and fall for her again and again through his son's words and actions. He loved her for the rest of his life, forever regretting the ten years they'd missed.
But Heaven took pity on him, and Li Rui returned to the age of fifteen. This time, she was still here, the child had not yet been born, and he was still the passionate, devoted young man his son had said was exactly her type.
