In his previous life, Shen Zhao mistakenly showed his true feelings to the hypocrite Xiao Jamel, betrayed his master and squandered his family wealth for him, and was eventually fed to the "pulling machine" and died tragically. She didn't know until her death that her master, Xie Heng, who silently protected her, bloodbathed the Xiao Mansion to avenge her, but was plotted by Jamel Xiao and his soul was torn to pieces. After being reborn, Shen Zhao became an orphan on the border. She was brought back to the mountain gate by the elders of the Xuanxiao Sect and worshiped under the sect of Xie Heng, the "Living King of Hell". In this life, she put away her innocence, used her poisonous tongue as her armor, and her alchemy skills as her blade, and devoted herself to her career: refining magical elixirs, breaking conspiracies, building an intelligence network, and vowing to make those who wronged her in her previous life pay with their blood. Xie Heng thought she was still the little disciple who needed protection, but he saw that she had turned upside down and showed her sharpness. He verbally reprimanded her for being "unseemly", but secretly cleared the way for her: blocking assassinations for her, finding lost pharmacopoeias, and even protecting her with his life when she was in danger. Until one night, Shen Zhao was trapped in a secret realm by a scumbag old acquaintance. Xie Heng broke into the formation with a sword and said "Who dares to hurt her", shocking the whole audience. When the truth was revealed, Shen Zhao realized that during those seven years as a master and apprentice, his harshness was because he was afraid that she would be in danger, and his silence was because of his deep affection that could not be hidden. But she had already fallen while fighting side by side, but she said harshly: "Xie Heng, you are just used to being a master." Xie Heng pressed her against the sword pavilion pillar, his eyes red: "Shen Zhao, I teach you swordsmanship, lead you to make elixirs, and kill people for you, not to be a master. I want you to live, and more importantly, I want you to... Just look at me."

In the summer of that year, the cicadas were chirping noisily, and the sun shone through the gaps in the sycamore leaves, shining on Wen Ruan's notebook. The young man in her works has bright eyebrows and is a storm chaser on the basketball court. It is she who has hidden the secret of her entire youth. Jiang Chi also remembered that the girl who always sat by the window, as quiet as a mimosa, would hurriedly lower her head when he looked over, with the tips of her ears turning red. He would deliberately stop at her table, put an ice-cold Coke in her hand, and stand quietly not far away when she played the guitar. They are the most dazzling light in each other's youth, but they both hide their love in their eyes because of timidity and pride. The pressure of study increases suddenly, there are forks in the road, dreams and reality collide, misunderstandings and misses are intertwined. He thought she would wait for him to speak, and she thought he just saw her as a friend. During the summer of college, there was no confession or hug, which separated them in two cities. In the days that followed, Wen Ruan became a well-known essayist, and his secret love stories touched countless people, but he could not finish writing about his own youth. Jiang Chi became a professional basketball player. He was high-spirited on the court, but he never drank strawberry-flavored yogurt again. They shined brightly in their own lives and never crossed paths again. It turns out that some love can only stop at the lips and teeth and be hidden by the years.
