Xu Ningyan, a woman from a later age, transmigrated twice, all to find Zhou Zinían. But the Zhou Zinían of today is no longer the man he once was.
Now a holy maiden, Xu Ningyan is bestowed in marriage to Prince Yi, Zhou Zinían.
Though the two are married, Zhou Zinían does not love Xu Ningyan. Still, she does everything she can to protect him.
When she is framed,
"Xu Ningyan, if you did this, don't blame me for disregarding the dignity of the Holy Clan. I will kill you."
When she puts a scheming woman in her place,
"Xu Ningyan, how dare you hurt Xia'er? Don't blame me for sending you a letter of divorce."
When she talks back to the Empress,
"Xu Ningyan, apologize to my mother. If you want to be a good princess consort, then behave yourself and put away your schemes."
When she is injured protecting him,
"Xu Ningyan, I don't need you to save me."
"Your Highness, do you know what it means to enjoy mistreating your wife for a while, only to chase her to the crematorium afterward?" Xu Ningyan's eyes brim with tears. She's tired. She's worn out.
In this life, he is not the man meant for her.
It's time for her to let go.
"What?"
When she has recovered from her injuries,
"Your Highness, the divorce papers are ready. Please look them over."
"Xu Ningyan, you'll never get a divorce in this life."
"I've felt nothing for all the people I've met, but seeing you moved my heart. Still, Zhou Zinían, I can't warm yours." Tears streamed down her face, as if she were venting her feelings, or perhaps bringing everything to an end.
