A love story hidden in the depths of despair and forsaken memories… Lai Mingjie is a hot and well-sought bachelor in the city, the sole heir of one of the country's most powerful and influential men. However, he has a secret: he used to be the most prolific demon king in history! In his plight of trying to end his suffering, he runs into the amnesiac Xu Rouguang. This man cannot remember anything else about his life... but that he loves Lai Mingjie. Who would have thought that this man is actually the demon king's wife... and executioner?! With the promises of freedom and a new life together, the two of them works on recovering whatever they can to rebuild the destiny that they have placed onto themselves—and what they have shattered all the same. How strong can they be in their crossed paths filled with pain, death, and separation… now that they are together again?

Sadly, Lai Mingjie caught the pout on Xu Longshan's face. The dog would only pout at him as if he was the only one not strong enough to resist it. He just had to laugh and call it off. After all, if Bu Baobao indeed had anything that could help Xu Longshan, then it wouldn't be going anywhere. She wouldn't be going anywhere.
…
For tonight, they had to rent another room for Bu Baobao. Even if she was a spirit beast, Xu Rouguang still found it inappropriate to let her stay with the rest. After settling everything, he had returned to their room. His hand held onto the long knob, but he didn't turn it. For some reason, he felt heavy by the fact that he was supposed to face Lai Mingjie again tonight.
They were going to be alone, and Lai Mingjie would be holding onto him again.
It was time to face his audacity… and to swallow his pride.
