Where the Evening Breeze Dies, Late Marriage Is Hard to Find

After three years of a marriage arranged to bind their families together, Zhao Wanqiu is trapped in a marriage that exists in name only.

Gentle, patient, clear-eyed, and composed, she keeps her sharp edges hidden and silently bears the pressure, enduring lonely, bitter years without anyone who understands her. But Han Chenyuan, stubborn and young, is blinded by misunderstandings and goaded by rumors. Hiding behind coldness and masking his feelings with distance, he personally betrays every kindness she offers. He lets misunderstandings pile up and the distance between them grow, leaving her alone and cold in their marriage, her heart dying little by little.

Once her disappointment reaches its limit, she resolutely walks away, files for divorce, and cuts off every last tie and compromise.

After the divorce, Zhao Wanqiu casts off her shackles and starts her life over. Drawing on her extraordinary talent, she dedicates herself to architectural design, turning the tables and rising against all odds. From an unknown newcomer quietly honing her craft, she steadily polishes her work and astonishes the industry. With a landmark project on the banks of the river, she rises to the top nationwide and becomes a top designer celebrated by the whole country, her career flourishing as she shines brighter than ever.

Meanwhile, Han Chenyuan, once so cold and stubborn, finally comes to his senses and changes completely.

He sheds his harshness and sets aside his pride, becoming gentle and devoted to his family, always there to support her. With years of sincerity and affection, he pursues his wife one step at a time, and they save each other in return.
