A series of unfathomable incidents compelled Jiang Yuyan to marry her brother-in-law Lu Lijun, who's younger than her. Her new marriage meant nothing to her more than just an act to protect the people she cared about.

She planned to leave the Lu family after Lu Lijun became independent and spend the rest of her life with the memories of Lu Qiang which she treasured for all those years, but that turned out to be her wishful thinking.

Her brother-in-law, Lu Lijun, realizes that he is in love with her and wants her to be his wife. However, she rejects him.

What will unfold when he confessed his feelings to her, knowing that she will never accept him?

Will he be able to make her fall in love with him? Will her heart come alive again?
