After learning that her boyfriend of two years had cheated on her, Ming Yi broke up with him cleanly and without hesitation.
When her mother found out, she said nothing and immediately lined up a whole host of potential blind dates.
Ming Yi casually flipped through the thick stack of photos her mother had brought over, saying, "I'm not drawn to this one. No. I don't feel anything for that one either. No."
At the very end, she stared at a handsome face that seemed strangely familiar, and suddenly felt a spark. "I'll take him."

One night, Ming Yi's cheating ex suddenly found himself missing all the good things about her. He called her. "Yiyi, are you doing okay?"
Instead, a deep, lazy voice came through the phone: "Yiyi? Who said you could call my wife that?"
After the call ended, no one knew that Ming Yi spent the entire next day lying in bed.
Oh, Song Yubai, the one responsible, knew all too well.

At their old high school's anniversary celebration, nearly everyone from their graduating class was invited.
On a tree-lined path, people teased Ming Yi and Song Yubai. After all, the two of them had been famous figures back in school, especially Song Yubai, who had been the center of attention.
To everyone's surprise,
Song Yubai played along with every joke. He naturally slipped an arm around Ming Yi's slender waist and grinned with shameless swagger. "I know my wife's a good sport, but all of you better watch yourselves."
Everyone stood there stunned.

One day, by chance,
Ming Yi found a locked combination diary in Song Yubai's desk drawer. On impulse, she entered the date they had first met.
The diary opened, and inside, along with Song Yubai's journal, was an old photograph. A line written on the back caught the sunlight:
[You are the fiction I spend every waking moment with, close enough to touch.]
No one knew what Song Yubai had done to get the chance to go on a blind date with Ming Yi.
Radiant heiress × scheming, charming, arrogant, devoted puppy
Female lead's perspective: love after marriage
Male lead's perspective: unrequited love fulfilled
"You are the fiction I spend every waking moment with, close enough to touch."
