Three days after returning to China with her daughter Wen Xia, having lost her memory, Wen Lixiao is signing copies of her new book when a hand wearing a wedding ring passes her a book. Inside is an old photograph:
She is dressed in a wedding gown, smiling like a flower.
And the man in the photo is standing right in front of her: gold-rimmed glasses, Buddhist prayer beads wrapped around his wrist. He's none other than Liang Shiqing, the refined and celibate heir to the Liang family, one of the capital's most powerful clans.
They say his health is frail, and that he fell seriously ill after his beloved wife disappeared.
At Anhe Temple, he climbed 1,088 steps, bowing every three steps, undeterred by wind or snow. He wasn't praying for wealth or status, only for her safety.

After Liang Shiqing takes Wen Lixiao home, she has a devoted husband who takes care of her in every way, and her daughter has a loving father who treasures her.
She lives a happy life that everyone envies.
Until one day, she finds a diary signed "Liang Ying":
[My twin brother, Liang Shiqing, is getting engaged. No one invited me, but I came back to China anyway. He's a sickly man who can't go without his medicine, but his fiancee is beautiful, with eyes as warm and bright as the dawn.]
[Being liked by someone is hard. I realized that one minute after I was kicked out of the house. I decided to get revenge, but someone gave me a piece of candy. My future sister-in-law mistook me for that sickly man, and I slept with her.]
[I found Liang Shiqing a good place to stay, where he'd have food and drink and someone to look after him. He'll just never come back.]
[Starting today, I am Liang Shiqing, and Wen Lixiao is my wife. Here's to our happy wedding.]
