Ten years ago, Jiang Yue was a wealthy young heiress. The Jiang family wielded immense power, and countless people were eager to curry favor with her.

Back then, Miss Jiang's only daily worries were which dress to wear to a ball and which new movie to see at the cinema.

Bold and passionate, she took the initiative to pursue the eldest son of the Lu family, and they became a couple everyone admired.

But the Lu family had long since fallen on hard times, so there was no shortage of people behind Lu Zhaonian's back, criticizing him.

Yet just after she won him over, Miss Jiang sailed overseas with breezy abandon, leaving Lu Zhaonian behind.

Ten years later, the Jiang family had lost its power. The once-proud blossom had fallen into the mud, and the former Miss Jiang was drifting alone in a foreign land.

Meanwhile, Lu Zhaonian, the man she had abandoned, had become a rising star in business. The difference between them was like that between heaven and earth.

When they met again, she had just parted from a pleasant blind date and was standing in the rain, struggling to hail a taxi.

Through the rain and mist, Lu Zhaonian watched coldly as the wind lifted the hem of her qipao dress, her rain-soaked calves as soft and graceful as willow branches.

Their eyes met. At last, he stubbed out his cigarette, opened the car door, and stepped out.

"Going on a date with someone else, as if I were dead?"

*

The mortal world is fleeting, the will of heaven vast, and fate has torn you and me apart.

Heartbreaking words fall one by one, the sound of wind and rain goes on and on, as if an old friend has returned.
