00:00:00At the beginning of the drama, Jixia is stopped by her cousin, Bufan, who informs her that
00:00:05she has an important client to meet today, someone she needs to convince to invest in
00:00:09their company.
00:00:10However, Jixia refuses, stating that she dislikes meetings.
00:00:14A short while later, her uncle, Bufan's father, arrives and asks her to meet the client, but
00:00:19she tells him she has an important shopping appointment and needs to leave.
00:00:23As she heads toward the garage, Jixia can't believe her eyes when she spots the man in
00:00:27the car next to hers.
00:00:28Memories of her ex-boyfriend, Zi, flood her mind.
00:00:31They had a wonderful relationship until one morning, she woke up to find him completely
00:00:36gone, leaving nothing behind except a handful of cash on the table.
00:00:40Since that day, Jixia has tried to move on by burying herself in work and shopping.
00:00:45She snaps out of her thoughts as she watches him with another woman.
00:00:48Without hesitation, she follows them to a hotel, confirms his name, and is shocked to
00:00:53realize that he is the very same client Bufan had mentioned.
00:00:56Curious, Jixia decides to follow the woman accompanying him.
00:01:00Inside the hotel room, she is stunned to learn that the woman is actually Zi's attorney,
00:01:05Aishin.
00:01:06Just then, Zi steps out of the bathroom, his gaze filled with disdain as he looks at Jixia.
00:01:11Without a word, he walks past her as if she were a stranger.
00:01:15Hurt by his coldness, Jixia struggles to find her voice, but before she can say anything,
00:01:20her uncle enters the room.
00:01:21Apologizing to Zi, he introduces Jixia as his niece and informs him that she will be
00:01:26the one managing his business dealings with the company.
00:01:29But Zi makes it clear that he didn't come to the company to do business with them.
00:01:33He came to file a lawsuit against them for stealing designs from his company without
00:01:37permission.
00:01:38Jixia's uncle speaks to her and Bufan, telling them that this is a disaster and that they
00:01:42must resolve the issue without causing any trouble.
00:01:45As Jixia wonders how to find a solution without having to deal directly with Zi, Bufan enters
00:01:50the room a few moments later.
00:01:53After reviewing the client's name, he realizes that Zi Yi is the same jerk who disappeared
00:01:57from Jixia's life without warning.
00:01:59He tells her that he's willing to handle the negotiations in her place if she can't separate
00:02:03her work from her emotions.
00:02:05As Bufan speaks, Jixia's mind drifts back to the first time she met Zi Yi.
00:02:10He had rented out an entire cinema hall just to watch a movie alone.
00:02:13By chance, Jixia had entered the hall by mistake.
00:02:17Instead of leaving, she sat beside him in the front row to watch the film.
00:02:21When Zi Yi looked at her, he was immediately intrigued.
00:02:24Not only did he decide to watch the movie with her, but he also played her favorite
00:02:27music for her.
00:02:29After the movie, Zi Yi invited Jixia to dinner, and the two spent hours discussing films and
00:02:34music, sharing their favorite choices with each other.
00:02:37Jixia snapped out of her thoughts, and without warning, she abruptly kicked Bufan out of
00:02:41the room.
00:02:42The moment he was gone, she broke down in deep sobs.
00:02:45Bufan, standing outside, could hear her and felt terrible for her pain, but he knew there
00:02:50was nothing he could do.
00:02:51He had seen this before.
00:02:53Whenever Zi Yi's name was mentioned, Jixia would cry until exhaustion put her to sleep.
00:02:58Meanwhile, Aishin walked into his office and informed him that Jixia had agreed to pay
00:03:02the compensation.
00:03:03However, she reminded him that, legally, he now had full control over the hotel.
00:03:08She then asked if he intended to keep it or demolish it like he had done before.
00:03:12At that moment, the truth is revealed.
00:03:14One year ago, Zi Yi had taken over an orphanage.
00:03:18Everyone had believed he would turn it into a paradise for the children.
00:03:21But the moment he signed the contract, they were shocked to discover that he had implemented
00:03:25harsh and terrible changes instead.
00:03:27It becomes clear that Zi Yi intends to take control of the hotel only to demolish it completely.
00:03:32Later, Zi Yi meets with his advisor and asks for information about the hotel's owners.
00:03:37When the advisor mentions Jixia, he describes her as a girl struggling with depression,
00:03:42still clinging to the memories of a lover who abandoned her a year ago.
00:03:46After the advisor leaves, Zi Yi glances around and is startled to find Jixia in the same
00:03:50place, drinking and crying.
00:03:52He notices someone secretly slipping a sedative into her drink.
00:03:56Concerned, he watches her closely but feels relieved when, in her drunken state, she carelessly
00:04:01throws the drink away.
00:04:03However, as Zi Yi steps into the bathroom, he overhears the man who drugged her making
00:04:07a bet with his friend, confident that by the end of the night, he'll have her no matter
00:04:11As the two men approached Jixia and handed her another drink, Zi Yi suddenly appeared,
00:04:16pulling her into his arms and declaring,
00:04:18Stay away from my girlfriend.
00:04:20Without hesitation, he took the glass and drank it himself.
00:04:23Moments later, the effects of the sedative began to take hold, but despite his weakening
00:04:28state, Zi Yi did everything he could to keep them from getting close to Jixia.
00:04:32He managed to keep the men away and carried her back to the hotel, but then, immediately
00:04:37passed out beside her.
00:04:38But after a few minutes of rest, she woke up and mumbled in a dazed voice that she couldn't
00:04:43believe what she was seeing, Zi Yi was right beside her.
00:04:46She must really be drunk, but as her vision cleared and she realized he was truly there,
00:04:50she curled up at the edge of the bed, her voice trembling as she asked what had happened.
00:04:55When the memories of the night came rushing back, a wave of gratitude washed over her,
00:04:59he had saved her.
00:05:00Her eyes fell on his injured hand and a pang of sympathy struck her.
00:05:05Without hesitation, she decided to clean and treat his wound.
00:05:08Jixia, however, went a little overboard.
00:05:11She used an excessive amount of gauze and cotton while treating Zi Yi's wound.
00:05:15Once she was done, she went to wash her hands, but when she returned, she found Zi Yi feeling
00:05:20hot and insistently trying to take off his shirt.
00:05:22She tried to stop him, telling him to cut it out, but he ignored her and moved closer,
00:05:27as if he was about to kiss her.
00:05:29Just as their faces almost touched, he suddenly passed out, right on her arm.
00:05:33Unable to move him, she had no choice but to sleep like that.
00:05:37The next morning, Zi Yi woke up to find Jixia nestled in his arms.
00:05:41The memories of the night before flooded his mind, and in an instant he pulled away and
00:05:46got up in a rush to leave.
00:05:47Still shaken, Zi Yi arrived at work only to realize that his employees were whispering
00:05:52among themselves, gossiping about how, for the first time in his life, he was late to
00:05:56the office.
00:05:57Zi Yi yells at his employees, ordering them to focus on their work, but deep down he's
00:06:01distracted.
00:06:02Ever since he woke up next to Jixia, he hasn't been able to get her out of his mind.
00:06:07Meanwhile, Jixia wakes up to find that Zi Yi has left her a credit card.
00:06:11The sight of it instantly triggers an old wound, memories of the time he left money
00:06:15for her before disappearing.
00:06:17Humiliation washes over her once again, but this time, she doesn't stay silent.
00:06:22She calls him, her voice sharp as she tells him that nothing happened between them for
00:06:26him to leave her money.
00:06:27Zi Yi, unfazed, replies coldly, if you think so highly of yourself, then come see your
00:06:32uncle, he's practically begging me to let him keep control of the hotel.
00:06:36Jixia rushed to the company and pushed her uncle away, assuring him not to worry, as
00:06:41she would solve this problem without him having to humiliate himself.
00:06:44However, he remained unconvinced and told her that Zi Yi was a ruthless man with a bad
00:06:49reputation.
00:06:50He had even disappeared from the scene a year ago, and no one knew where he had been or
00:06:54what he had been doing during that time.
00:06:55His words sparked her curiosity, and she began to think seriously about the matter.
00:07:00Later, she met Bufan and brought up her concerns about Zi Yi's sudden change, wondering
00:07:05where he had disappeared to all that time.
00:07:07Since he had been absent from everyone who knew him, it couldn't have been just about
00:07:11avoiding her.
00:07:12This led her to question the real reason behind his disappearance.
00:07:15Bufan considered two possibilities, either Zi Yi had wanted to erase his past and start
00:07:20over, or he had lost his memory.
00:07:22Upon hearing this, Jixia immediately chose to believe the second option, convinced that
00:07:27he must have suffered from amnesia.
00:07:29However, that didn't mean she was willing to forgive him.
00:07:32She still felt the need to punish him for what he had done to her.
00:07:35Sensing her anger, Bufan assured her that he was ready to take revenge on Zi Yi for
00:07:40her sake.
00:07:40He walked to his room and knocked on the door, intending to punch him before Aishen
00:07:44arrived.
00:07:45However, Bufan saw her first and froze in place, completely shocked.
00:07:49Memories flooded back as he realized she was the same girl he had confessed his love
00:07:54to in high school.
00:07:55Back then, she had rejected him simply because she was taller than him.
00:07:59Bufan didn't hesitate this time.
00:08:00He told her that he had grown taller than her now and that his feelings for her had
00:08:04never changed.
00:08:05Once again he confessed his love, but his hopes were crushed when she looked at him
00:08:09in confusion and asked,
00:08:11Who are you?
00:08:12It didn't take him long to realize that she had completely forgotten about him.
00:08:16Disheartened, he returned to Jixia, feeling frustrated.
00:08:19The two of them drank together, sharing the same pain of being forgotten by the ones
00:08:23they had once loved.
00:08:24As the night went on and Jixia became completely intoxicated, she stormed into Zi Yi's
00:08:29room, unleashing her anger on him.
00:08:32She lashed out, demanding to know how he dared to claim he had forgotten her after
00:08:36everything they had been through.
00:08:37The humiliation in his words cut deep, and she refused to let it go unanswered.
00:08:42But he simply stood in front of her, watching her drunken outrage in silence.
00:08:47He didn't react.
00:08:48Instead, he said with unsettling certainty that she must be imagining things, because
00:08:52he had no idea who she was.
00:08:54Jixia completely lost control and began hitting him relentlessly until he fell to the
00:08:59ground, injured.
00:09:00Without hesitation, he took her to the police station, intending to file a complaint
00:09:05against her.
00:09:06However, as soon as they arrived, Jixia broke down in tears in front of the officer,
00:09:10confessing that he had once been her lover but had abandoned her in a cruel way.
00:09:14She admitted that her actions were driven by a desperate need for revenge.
00:09:18The officer, unimpressed, found their situation trivial compared to more serious
00:09:23matters.
00:09:24He turned to Zi Yi and urged him to let it go, reminding him that she was drunk and in
00:09:28a terrible state.
00:09:29After some consideration, Zi Yi agreed, and the two of them were allowed to leave.
00:09:33However, as soon as they stepped outside, Jixia made a shocking realization.
00:09:38Zi had never been injured at all.
00:09:40He smirked at her, revealing that the entire incident had been nothing more than a
00:09:44demonstration.
00:09:45He wanted her to see exactly what he was capable of if he ever decided to take revenge
00:09:49on her.
00:09:50Without giving her a chance to respond, he coldly told her to stay out of his way and
00:09:54leave him alone.
00:09:55That night, after returning home and falling asleep, Zi found himself dreaming of her
00:10:00again.
00:10:00In his dream, they were sitting together in a movie theater, watching a film.
00:10:05Later, they went out for dinner, and she playfully asked him to compose a song just
00:10:09for her.
00:10:10The memory felt so vivid, as if it had truly happened.
00:10:13He woke up abruptly, his heart pounding.
00:10:15Frustration and confusion consumed him.
00:10:18Why did she keep invading his dreams?
00:10:20Why did she haunt him every time he closed his eyes?
00:10:23Hoping to clear his mind, he headed to the company the next day, but his attempt at finding
00:10:28peace was short-lived.
00:10:29As soon as she walked into his office, his irritation resurfaced.
00:10:33However, instead of starting an argument, she simply thanked him for clearing all the
00:10:37company's debts, sparing her uncle from having to pay them.
00:10:40Zi was taken aback.
00:10:42He had no idea what she was talking about.
00:10:44Before he could respond, his phone rang.
00:10:46It was Aishin, confirming that the entire amount had been paid, just as he had instructed.
00:10:51Shocked, he checked his messages and found proof that he had indeed given the order to
00:10:56settle the debt.
00:10:56But he had no recollection of ever doing so.
00:10:59Feeling lost and unsettled, he abruptly left Jixia behind and returned home.
00:11:04Desperate for answers, he accessed his security camera recordings, hoping to figure out when
00:11:08exactly he had made that decision.
00:11:10However, what he saw on the screen left him completely stunned.
00:11:14There, on the footage, he witnessed a side of himself he hadn't seen in a long time.
00:11:18His other personality had resurfaced.
00:11:21It was then revealed that Zi had been suffering from dissociative identity disorder for a
00:11:25very long time.
00:11:26He had spent years switching between his original self and his second personality, the one who
00:11:31loved music and films.
00:11:33However, a year ago, he had undergone treatment and successfully suppressed his alter, believing
00:11:38he had finally been cured.
00:11:39Now, he couldn't understand why it had suddenly resurfaced.
00:11:43The truth became clear.
00:11:44Jixia's lost lover, the one who had disappeared without warning, was none other than Zi's
00:11:49second personality.
00:11:50When Zi had woken up that morning and found Jixia beside him, he hadn't recognized her
00:11:55as someone significant.
00:11:57He simply assumed she was a woman he had spent the night with and, without a second thought,
00:12:01left her money before walking away.
00:12:03As Zi delved deeper into his memories, he was forced to confront the reality of his
00:12:08condition.
00:12:08He had lived with this disorder for so long that he had grown accustomed to it.
00:12:12He had accepted that there was another person inside him, someone who would take over when
00:12:17he was asleep.
00:12:18Unlike others who might fear such a situation, Zi had embraced it.
00:12:22He had even found a way to communicate with his other self through messages.
00:12:25However, everything changed the moment his alter met Jixia.
00:12:29It had been love at first sight, and instead of disappearing as usual, he had chosen to
00:12:33stay.
00:12:34He had started dating her, forming a relationship that Zi had no knowledge of.
00:12:38But when Zi, as the original personality, eventually regained control, he was furious.
00:12:44The alter had broken the unspoken rules they had always followed.
00:12:47He had overstepped his boundaries, stayed for too long, and, worst of all, made a promise
00:12:52to a woman.
00:12:53That was something Zi could never allow.
00:12:56Zi went to his psychiatrist and told him that he had agreed to undergo treatment solely
00:13:00to get rid of his second personality completely.
00:13:02The doctor was initially surprised, as he had always known that Zi and his alter had
00:13:07a close bond.
00:13:08However, when Zi admitted that his alter had fallen in love, the doctor immediately understood
00:13:13the urgency of the situation.
00:13:15He warned Zi that they needed to eliminate the alter before it could take full control
00:13:19of his body.
00:13:20The treatment process was long and demanding.
00:13:22That was the period during which Zi had completely disappeared, not just from Zixia's life but
00:13:27from everyone around him.
00:13:29Snapping out of his memories, Zi immediately called his doctor again and informed him that
00:13:33his second personality had returned.
00:13:35He suspected that it had something to do with the girl he had once dated, especially now
00:13:40that she was working closely with him.
00:13:41The doctor cautioned him to be extremely careful.
00:13:44If he wasn't, the alter might take over once again.
00:13:47Determined to regain control of the situation, Zi went to Zixia and made it clear that he
00:13:52hadn't paid off her company's debts out of generosity.
00:13:55He demanded that she repay the full amount, warning her that if she didn't, he would destroy
00:13:59the hotel completely.
00:14:00With no other choice, Zixia decided to sell her shares to an investor and use the money
00:14:05to settle the debt.
00:14:06However, when her uncle found out about her decision, he was furious.
00:14:11Overcome with anger, he took her to her father's grave and reprimanded her for what she had
00:14:15done.
00:14:15Her uncle looked at her with disappointment, telling her that he never expected his daughter
00:14:20to give up on the company so easily.
00:14:22Despite his words, Zixia secretly met with the investor and finalized the sale of her
00:14:26shares.
00:14:27However, she had included a special clause in the contract.
00:14:30Her uncle would remain in charge of managing the company.
00:14:34Unbeknownst to her, the investor she had sold her shares to was actually working under Ziyi's
00:14:38orders.
00:14:39Later, Zixia finally confessed to her uncle that she had sold her shares.
00:14:43His disappointment only deepened when she revealed her next decision.
00:14:47She was planning to leave China.
00:14:48She explained that she had suffered too much and endured countless wounds.
00:14:52If she left now, she could finally put the past behind her and live in peace.
00:14:57After hearing her reasoning, both her uncle and Bufan reluctantly accepted her decision.
00:15:02Determined to move on, Zixia packed up her belongings from the office, preparing to leave
00:15:07everything behind.
00:15:08As she was about to go, she picked up a photo of herself with Ziyi and stared at it,
00:15:12lost in thought.
00:15:13Uncertain of what to do with it, she threw it into the trash.
00:15:16But as she turned to leave, her gaze lingered on the discarded photo, unable to tear herself
00:15:21away.
00:15:22After a long moment of hesitation, she reached down and took it back.
00:15:26On the other side, Ziyi woke up to find himself inside his car, teetering on the edge of a
00:15:31cliff, moments away from falling.
00:15:33Panic surged through him as he struggled to comprehend how he had ended up there.
00:15:37Before disaster could strike, a police officer appeared just in time and pulled him to safety.
00:15:42Ziyi had no recollection of what had happened the night before.
00:15:45That could only mean one thing.
00:15:47His second personality had taken control.
00:15:49The realization hit him like a thunderbolt.
00:15:52His alter had likely tried to end their existence, unable to bear the thought of Zixia leaving.
00:15:57For the first time, true fear settled into Ziyi's heart.
00:16:00He could actually lose his life over a woman.
00:16:03That was something he could never allow.
00:16:05Determined to stop her, he immediately called Zixia, demanding to see her.
00:16:09But her response made his heart sink.
00:16:11She was already on the plane, ready to leave at any moment.
00:16:15Just as she thought she was leaving everything behind, a breathtaking sight unfolded before
00:16:19her.
00:16:20Countless balloons began to float around the plane, filling the sky in a mesmerizing
00:16:24display.
00:16:25Then, to her utter disbelief, Ziyi appeared.
00:16:28He stepped onto the plane, holding a ring in his hand.
00:16:31In front of everyone, he got down on one knee and proposed.
00:16:34Zixia was overwhelmed with happiness, unable to believe what was happening.
00:16:39But then, reality struck.
00:16:41Everything Zixia had imagined was just a fleeting illusion.
00:16:44Ziyi was indeed standing in front of her.
00:16:46But instead of a ring, he was holding a stack of documents.
00:16:50Calmly, he told her that he had decided to restructure her debt into installments and
00:16:53that he would return the money he had taken.
00:16:55But in exchange, he asked her not to leave.
00:16:58After a moment of hesitation, Zixia ultimately decided to stay.
00:17:02She got into the car with Ziyi, leaving the airport behind.
00:17:05Back at the company, Ziyi made a new request.
00:17:08He wanted her to teach him everything about hotel management.
00:17:11Under the guise of learning, his true intention was clear.
00:17:14He wanted to extend his time by her side for as long as possible, satisfying his second
00:17:19personality.
00:17:20At first, Zixia didn't think much of it, but as time passed, she began to feel suffocated.
00:17:25Ziyi kept her so occupied with work that she barely had any time for herself.
00:17:29It wasn't long before exhaustion set in, but Bufan reassured her.
00:17:33He told her that Ziyi was probably doing all of this simply because he loved her and wanted
00:17:37to stay close.
00:17:38Trusting Bufan's words, Zixia chose to believe in Ziyi's intentions.
00:17:43She pushed herself harder, taking on more work, to the point where she was staying up
00:17:47late at the office, completely absorbed in her responsibilities.
00:17:50Zixia dozed off from exhaustion, and when Ziyi saw her, he instinctively decided to
00:17:55cover her with a blanket.
00:17:56Wanting to make her more comfortable, he placed a few books under her head as a pillow, but
00:18:00before he could move away, she unconsciously leaned against his arm.
00:18:05When he tried to pull away, she refused to let go even in her sleep, forcing him to stay
00:18:09beside her.
00:18:10As the night passed, Ziyi found himself gazing at her, mesmerized by her beauty.
00:18:15At that moment, he finally understood why his second personality had fallen in love
00:18:20with her.
00:18:20Yet, deep down, he wished she could love him for who he was, not just the other side of
00:18:25him.
00:18:25By morning, Ziyi woke up first and quietly left before Zixia could notice.
00:18:30When she finally opened her eyes, she vaguely recalled dreaming about him sleeping beside
00:18:35her.
00:18:35But when the secretary walked in carrying breakfast and mentioned that Ziyi had sent
00:18:39it, reality set in, he had truly been there.
00:18:42A soft warmth filled her heart when she noticed the books he had placed under her head.
00:18:46Even though he had left her on the floor, that small gesture made her happy.
00:18:50However, her mood quickly shifted when the secretary informed her that Ziyi was waiting
00:18:54outside, expecting her to drive him home.
00:18:57Annoyed, she muttered to herself, questioning whether he thought she was his personal
00:19:01chauffeur.
00:19:02But then she remembered Bufan's words.
00:19:04Ziyi must love her to the extent that he couldn't bear to be without her, even for a
00:19:08moment.
00:19:09Meanwhile, as Zixia stepped outside, Bufan unexpectedly ran into Aishin.
00:19:14To his shock, she laughed and admitted that she had actually recognized him from the
00:19:18start.
00:19:18She had never forgotten him.
00:19:20However, she had chosen not to say anything at the time because she was already
00:19:24engaged.
00:19:25Bufan's heart sank.
00:19:26He had spent so much time dwelling on the past, only to be met with disappointment.
00:19:31At the same time, Zixia was in the car with Ziyi, feeling conflicted and frustrated by
00:19:36the growing tension between them.
00:19:38But to her surprise, Ziyi was the one driving, not her.
00:19:41Instead of taking her home, he brought her to his house and asked her to step out of
00:19:45the car.
00:19:46Confused, Zixia followed him inside, wondering why he had taken her there.
00:19:50However, her confusion quickly turned into shock when he led her to a billiard room and
00:19:54casually ordered her to clean it thoroughly.
00:19:57Humiliation washed over her.
00:19:58How could he claim to love her while treating her like a mere servant?
00:20:02Feeling both insulted and furious, Zixia suppressed her anger and did as he asked.
00:20:07Meanwhile, Ziyi left to meet with his uncle and an important investor to discuss a major
00:20:12business deal.
00:20:13However, throughout the meeting, his mind kept drifting back to Zixia.
00:20:17Unable to concentrate, he abruptly left the discussion and returned to the billiard room
00:20:21with the investor.
00:20:22As soon as he saw Zixia, he ordered her to prepare tea for them.
00:20:26Her irritation grew tenfold.
00:20:28Frustrated, she reluctantly went to make the tea, but as she did, she overheard two employees
00:20:33discussing the significance of this deal for Ziyi.
00:20:36A sudden idea struck her.
00:20:37If this deal was so important to him, why not sabotage it?
00:20:41That way, he would have no choice but to fire her, freeing her from his presence once and
00:20:45for all.
00:20:46With this in mind, she returned with the tea but deliberately stumbled, spilling it all
00:20:51over the investor.
00:20:52The investor erupted in anger, knocking over the teapot, which shattered into pieces.
00:20:57Before Zixia could react, Ziyi immediately rushed to her side, his face filled with concern.
00:21:02Ignoring the deal altogether, he turned to the investor and said coldly,
00:21:06You just injured one of my employees.
00:21:08That means we have no business together.
00:21:10Without waiting for a response, he grabbed Zixia's hand and led her out of the room.
00:21:15Zixia laughed, telling Ziyi that she was perfectly fine and hadn't been hurt at all.
00:21:19She admitted that she had deliberately sabotaged the deal so he would fire her.
00:21:23But instead of getting angry, Ziyi simply smirked and told her that she had actually
00:21:27done him a favor.
00:21:28He hadn't wanted to sign that deal with the investor anyway.
00:21:31You need more training if you want to be a villain, he teased.
00:21:35You're too cute for that.
00:21:36Then he walked away, leaving her frustrated.
00:21:39Determined not to give up, Zixia came up with a new plan.
00:21:42She would leave the country without telling anyone.
00:21:45However, just as she was about to depart, she found Ziyi waiting for her in his car.
00:21:49He smirked at her and said,
00:21:51You're in debt to me, and there's no way I'm letting you escape.
00:21:54Thinking quickly, she lied,
00:21:56I wasn't going to leave.
00:21:58I was just going shopping.
00:21:59I brought my suitcase because I planned to buy a lot of things.
00:22:02Ziyi didn't seem fully convinced, but he went along with it, following her to the stores.
00:22:07Determined to make him suffer, Zixia bought an excessive amount of clothes and accessories,
00:22:12making him pay for everything.
00:22:14Then she dramatically sighed and said,
00:22:16I'm so hungry.
00:22:17She dragged him to a restaurant and ordered a ridiculous amount of food,
00:22:21once again making him foot the bill.
00:22:23While they were eating, a man at a nearby table suddenly gasped for breath and collapsed.
00:22:28Panic surged through Zixia as she rushed to his side, her hands trembling.
00:22:32Tears welled up in her eyes as she tried to revive him, her heart pounding in terror.
00:22:37The man regains consciousness, and the ambulance arrives to take him.
00:22:41Ziyi asks her if she knows this person, but she says no.
00:22:44However, she explains that her father had the same condition before he died,
00:22:48and the doctor told her that if someone at the hotel had revived him, he could have survived.
00:22:52Since then, she has suffered from panic attacks, struggling to breathe,
00:22:56and nothing has ever calmed her down except the music her lover, Lin, used to play for her.
00:23:01As she speaks, she suddenly experiences a panic attack.
00:23:05Ziyi quickly takes her to the piano and decides to play the piece for her.
00:23:08She tells him that no one but Lin ever played that melody,
00:23:11which means he must be Lin, no matter how much he denies it.
00:23:15But Ziyi insists that his name is Ziyi, not Lin.
00:23:18She tells him she doesn't believe him.
00:23:20Seeing her like this, he moves closer to her, almost about to kiss her,
00:23:24when a child suddenly appears and asks him to play a specific piece,
00:23:28interrupting the moment.
00:23:29On their way home in the car,
00:23:30she tells him that no matter how much he insists his name is different,
00:23:34she is certain he is her lover, Lin.
00:23:36No one else knows that piece of music except him, no matter how much he denies it.
00:23:40When she gets home, she keeps imagining him everywhere.
00:23:44She decides that she will confront him tomorrow
00:23:46and won't leave until he explains why he abandoned her before.
00:23:49However, the next day, she wakes up to discover
00:23:52that the investor Ziyi refused to work with wants to meet her.
00:23:55He asks her to sell him the rest of her shares in the company
00:23:58and reveals that he is Ziyi's uncle.
00:24:00She asks why he is coming to her if he is Ziyi's uncle.
00:24:04He tells her that his relationship with Ziyi isn't great
00:24:06and that he knows she sold her shares to Ziyi.
00:24:09That's why he wants her to sell to him as well.
00:24:11Zixia is shocked when she realizes
00:24:13that the person who bought her shares in the first place was Ziyi.
00:24:17She is even more shocked when his uncle tells her
00:24:19that he plans to demolish the hotel
00:24:21as soon as he gains the majority stake in management.
00:24:24Zixia immediately goes to Ziyi and tells him
00:24:26she never knew he was such a despicable person,
00:24:29willing to destroy the hotel
00:24:30and erase all the years of hard work her father put into it.
00:24:33She says she now understands why he suddenly appeared in her life
00:24:36and then disappeared just as quickly,
00:24:38he was only trying to deceive her to get to the hotel from the start.
00:24:42But she won't let him do that.
00:24:43She storms off, leaving Ziyi feeling hurt
00:24:46that she sees him in such a terrible light.
00:24:48He remembers how he spent time learning to play the music
00:24:50his other identity, Lin, used to play for her.
00:24:54Even though she insulted him,
00:24:55he finds a small sense of happiness
00:24:57knowing that he was able to save her from her panic attack.
00:25:00While Zixia is in the bathroom,
00:25:02she discovers that her uncle was forced
00:25:04to sell the rest of his shares to Ziyi.
00:25:06Now, Ziyi holds the highest stake in the hotel,
00:25:09meaning he can demolish it whenever he wants.
00:25:11Determined to stop him, Zixia comes up with a plan.
00:25:14She sends Ziyi a message saying,
00:25:16don't tear down the hotel
00:25:17because there's a huge treasure underneath it.
00:25:20If you want to know what it is, come to the basement.
00:25:22When Ziyi arrives, he finds Zixia coming up from the basement,
00:25:26wrapped in a blanket because there's no heating.
00:25:28At that moment, Bufan locks the door from the outside,
00:25:31trapping them inside.
00:25:33Zixia hands Ziyi a contract and tells him to sign it,
00:25:36agreeing to manage the hotel without ever selling it.
00:25:39Otherwise, she'll leave him there to freeze.
00:25:41Ziyi signs the contract and Bufan unlocks the door.
00:25:45But just as Zixia thinks she's won,
00:25:47Ziyi surprises her by playing a recording of their conversation.
00:25:50He tells her that with this recording as proof
00:25:52that he signed under duress, the contract is invalid.
00:25:56Bufan quickly thinks on his feet and locks the door again,
00:25:59leaving Zixia and Ziyi trapped inside.
00:26:01Just then, Aishen arrives and Bufan spots her.
00:26:05He tries to stop her from finding out where Ziyi is.
00:26:08Meanwhile, inside the basement,
00:26:10a glass bottle falls and shatters on the floor.
00:26:12Ziyi quickly shields Zixia to prevent her from getting hurt,
00:26:16but he ends up getting injured instead.
00:26:18Zixia wraps his hand with his tie
00:26:20and then starts showing him the wine bottles.
00:26:22She explains how she has drawn the faces of everyone
00:26:25who has ever worked there and become part of the family on them.
00:26:28She tells him that when she considered selling her shares,
00:26:30she wanted to sell them to someone with more experience in the industry,
00:26:34someone who would preserve and expand her father's legacy, not destroy it.
00:26:38Then, she tells him that since he is now part of the place,
00:26:41he is also part of the family.
00:26:42To prove it, she draws his portrait on one of the bottles.
00:26:46Ziyi is deeply moved.
00:26:47He recalls how his father despised him,
00:26:49treated him cruelly, and even regretted having him.
00:26:52Yet here was Zixia,
00:26:54so easily telling him that he was part of her family.
00:26:56He tells her that he will think about the hotel's future.
00:26:59However, once he steps out,
00:27:01Aixin tries to convince him that Zixia was just being sentimental.
00:27:05Ziyi coldly tells her that he wasn't convinced by Zixia's words anyway
00:27:09and instructs her to proceed with the hotel's demolition.
00:27:11As Aixin leaves the room,
00:27:13she makes a mysterious phone call to someone unknown,
00:27:16saying, what you wanted is almost happening.
00:27:18Later that night, she returns home and falls asleep,
00:27:21only to be haunted by terrifying nightmares.
00:27:24In her dream, a figure relentlessly chases her,
00:27:27demanding that she either kill someone on his behalf
00:27:29or pay back the enormous debt she owes.
00:27:32The day Zixia finds out that Ziyi has officially started the demolition process,
00:27:36she completely loses control.
00:27:38Panicked, she rushes to her uncle,
00:27:40terrified upon learning that Ziyi has already begun tearing down the hotel's garden.
00:27:44However, when she arrives at the site,
00:27:47she is shocked to find environmental protection representatives there.
00:27:50They announce that it is illegal to cut down any trees
00:27:53or harm any plants in the garden,
00:27:54bringing the demolition to a halt.
00:27:56Ziyi is furious.
00:27:58He immediately assumes that his uncle is behind this and calls him.
00:28:02His uncle, instead of denying it,
00:28:04laughs and tells him how much he enjoys watching him fail.
00:28:07He even wishes that Ziyi's father were in China
00:28:09to witness just how much of a failure his son truly is.
00:28:12After ending the call, Aixin walks into the office.
00:28:15It is then revealed that she has been secretly working with Ziyi's uncle against him all along,
00:28:20feeding him every detail about Ziyi's actions and plans.
00:28:23The uncle smirks,
00:28:25saying he is very pleased with the unexpected intervention
00:28:28of the environmental protection representatives.
00:28:30Later that night, when Ziyi returns home,
00:28:33he notices a call has been made from his phone
00:28:35to one of the environmental protection officials.
00:28:37That's when he realizes his other personality, Lin,
00:28:40was the one who contacted them to protect the hotel.
00:28:43The next day, Ziyi visits his psychiatrist
00:28:46and tells him that Lin is starting to get out of control,
00:28:48making decisions that are beginning to harm him.
00:28:50The first was the attempt to end his own life,
00:28:53and now Lin is interfering with his work.
00:28:56The doctor advises him to strictly stick to his medication for the time being.
00:29:00The following day, a famous idol arrives at the hotel.
00:29:03Zixia greets him warmly and escorts him to his room,
00:29:06but he rejects it immediately.
00:29:08He then refuses one room after another,
00:29:10finding fault with everything,
00:29:12until he sets his sights on Ziyi's suite.
00:29:14Left with no choice, Zixia goes to Ziyi and asks
00:29:18if he could temporarily give up his suite for a few days for the idol.
00:29:21To her surprise, Ziyi agrees without hesitation,
00:29:24saying, okay, let him have it.
00:29:26Shocked by how easily he gave it up, Zixia asks why.
00:29:30Ziyi simply replies that it's for the hotel's benefit.
00:29:33The idol is incredibly famous,
00:29:35and as the hotel manager,
00:29:36it's his responsibility to maintain its reputation.
00:29:39However, when the idol enters the suite,
00:29:42he once again begins complaining about every little thing.
00:29:45Eventually, he demands that Zixia personally clean the room to perfection,
00:29:49and that she wear a housekeeping uniform while doing it.
00:29:52When Ziyi enters the suite and finds the idol lounging on the couch
00:29:55while Zixia is cleaning, he gets visibly annoyed.
00:29:58He immediately tells the idol that Zixia is not a housekeeper
00:30:01and shouldn't be doing this.
00:30:03But before he can say more, Zixia stops him.
00:30:06She reminds him that the customer is always right,
00:30:09and that since she agreed to clean, she will do it.
00:30:11Then she pointedly asks him why he's suddenly so upset.
00:30:15Wasn't he the one who made her clean before?
00:30:17Why is it bothering him now that the idol is the one making her do it?
00:30:21Ziyi is irritated by her words and decides to leave the room.
00:30:24Later, the idol talks privately with his secretary,
00:30:27and it's revealed that he didn't come to the hotel just for leisure.
00:30:31His real reason for being there is that his older brother
00:30:33wants to marry Zixia's mother,
00:30:35and he strongly opposes the marriage.
00:30:37So, he came to the hotel with a plan
00:30:39to convince Zixia to help him sabotage the wedding.
00:30:42To gain her trust, he invites Zixia to lunch outside the hotel
00:30:46and gives her a special gift,
00:30:47knowing that this will spark rumors about them.
00:30:50If the media spreads gossip about his relationship with Zixia,
00:30:53it could create complications
00:30:54that might stop his brother from marrying her mother.
00:30:57Meanwhile, Ziyi happens to be at the same restaurant
00:31:00and sees Zixia with the idol.
00:31:02He watches them together, and jealousy stirs within him.
00:31:05It turns out that Zixia deliberately agreed to go out with the idol
00:31:08after Bufan told her that Ziyi was trying to keep her away from him,
00:31:12most likely because Ziyi was jealous,
00:31:14wanting to provoke Ziyi even more.
00:31:16She decided to play along.
00:31:17At the end of their outing,
00:31:19the idol hands her a luxury handbag as a gift,
00:31:22but she refused to accept it and preferred to pay for it herself.
00:31:25So, she exchanged WeChat contacts with him to transfer the payment.
00:31:29When Ziyi saw this, he felt jealous.
00:31:31At that moment, the idol spilled water on Zixia,
00:31:34using it as an excuse to get close to her.
00:31:37The press captured the moment, and rumors quickly spread.
00:31:40However, Ziyi immediately approached her,
00:31:42placed his jacket over her in front of everyone, and took her away.
00:31:46Zixia shouted at Ziyi, demanding to know what he was doing.
00:31:49He angrily asked why she accepted the bag from the other man
00:31:52when he could buy her something much better.
00:31:55Zixia was stunned by his reaction.
00:31:57Suddenly, the elevator doors opened,
00:31:59and Ziyi stepped forward and kissed her forehead,
00:32:02only to realize, to their shock, that his father was there, watching.
00:32:06His father looked at him with disdain
00:32:08and said he couldn't believe Ziyi had left
00:32:10an important investor meeting for something like this.
00:32:12He then called both of them to his office.
00:32:14Once there, he told Ziyi that now he finally understood
00:32:17why he had refused to marry his friend's daughter.
00:32:20Then, with a sharp gaze, he added that he knew Ziyi was the one
00:32:23who had alerted the Environmental Protection Committee
00:32:25to put the hotel up for sale.
00:32:27His father scolded him, calling him a failure as always.
00:32:30He then ordered him to fix the situation with the investor,
00:32:34ensure that the hotel's profits went into their company's accounts
00:32:37rather than the hotel's, and finally, that he must return to the company immediately.
00:32:41Ziyi tells him that he will do it in a week.
00:32:44Zixia asks Ziyi what happened and if she caused him any trouble with the investor,
00:32:48but he assures her that it has nothing to do with her.
00:32:51She starts wondering whether Ziyi is really Lin or not, and if he still loves her.
00:32:55Otherwise, why did he come back to her again?
00:32:58Later, Ziyi goes to the idol and threatens him,
00:33:01saying that he has obtained old photos of him
00:33:03and will release them if he doesn't leave the hotel.
00:33:05He warns him that he will regret it if he refuses.
00:33:08After that, Ziyi returns to work and decides to apologize to the investor
00:33:13for leaving in the middle of the meeting.
00:33:15However, when his uncle finds out, he orders Aixin to stop Ziyi from doing so.
00:33:19Aixin pretends to have severe stomach pain and asks Ziyi to take her to the hospital.
00:33:24However, Bufan arrives at that moment, so Ziyi asks him to take her instead.
00:33:28After reaching the hospital with Bufan, Aixin feels guilty and sends a message to Zixia,
00:33:34telling her that the investor is important and asking her to help Ziyi convince him.
00:33:38Later, Aixin asks Bufan to leave because her boyfriend is coming to pick her up.
00:33:42However, when he arrives, he gets a phone call,
00:33:45informing her that he has an emergency meeting and must leave.
00:33:48Bufan watches him in disbelief, sensing that he doesn't care about her at all.
00:33:53He then offers to drive her home instead.
00:33:55Meanwhile, Ziyi and Zixia are with the investor, who refuses to meet them all together.
00:34:00Left with no choice, they both leave and decide to take a walk along the beach.
00:34:04While there, they come across a girl standing by the shore, crying.
00:34:08She tells them that her toy has fallen into the water.
00:34:11Ziyi and Zixia realize that the girl is lost,
00:34:14so they take her to a nearby restaurant and enjoy a delicious meal together.
00:34:18Afterward, they head to the police station to help find her family.
00:34:21When the officer arrives, he recognizes them and reminds them that they've met before.
00:34:25He then jokingly asks if they already have a child.
00:34:28Zixia quickly responds that they aren't even a couple, let alone parents.
00:34:33A short while later, the girl's nanny arrives to take her back.
00:34:36They learn that her mother passed away some time ago,
00:34:39and the toy was the last thing she had left from her.
00:34:41Meanwhile, her father is a busy man who hardly has time for her.
00:34:45After returning home, Ziyi and Zixia try to modify a toy
00:34:49to make it look like the one in the picture they saw with the nanny.
00:34:52They agree to tell the girl that they found it.
00:34:54At that moment, Zixia feels just how kind and gentle Ziyi truly is.
00:34:58The next day, the two of them go to deliver the toy to the little girl,
00:35:02telling her that they had found it.
00:35:04The little girl is overjoyed to see her toy again.
00:35:06A few moments later, her father enters, and to their surprise,
00:35:10he turns out to be the same investor.
00:35:12He thanks them for taking care of his daughter
00:35:14and tells them that he will give them another chance.
00:35:16That day, the girl goes out with them again,
00:35:19and on the way back, Zixia asks Ziyi to drop her off at home as well.
00:35:23Then, she adds that she never knew he liked children so much.
00:35:26Ziyi replies that children aren't the only thing he likes,
00:35:29then looks directly into her eyes.
00:35:31Just then, he receives a call from his doctor,
00:35:34informing him about a new treatment.
00:35:36The doctor explains that the treatment is risky.
00:35:38If it fails, Ziyi will disappear forever,
00:35:41and Lin will completely take over his body.
00:35:43Ziyi refuses the treatment,
00:35:45saying that Lin is happy now anyway while he himself is taking care of Zixia.
00:35:49The doctor then asks if he has fallen in love with Zixia,
00:35:52and Ziyi doesn't deny it.
00:35:54The next day, Ziyi asks Zixia to join him for lunch,
00:35:57but she refuses,
00:35:58telling him that she is only cooperating with him for work and nothing more.
00:36:02She adds that she can't go back to him after what he did to her that night.
00:36:06Ziyi leaves feeling completely frustrated,
00:36:08wondering how he can make Zixia fall in love with him again.
00:36:11His thoughts spiral to the point
00:36:13where he even imagines Lin telling him that Zixia loves only him.
00:36:16Desperate, Ziyi goes to the doctor
00:36:18and tells him that he feels like he's losing his mind.
00:36:21The doctor advises him that the solution is simple,
00:36:24he must confess his love to Zixia directly
00:36:26and interact with her as Ziyi, not Lin.
00:36:29He explains that Zixia still sees him as Lin and nothing more.
00:36:33When Ziyi returns to the company,
00:36:34he overhears Bufan talking to Zixia on the phone,
00:36:37telling her to choose her wedding dress carefully.
00:36:40Panic washes over Ziyi,
00:36:42and he rushes to the bridal shop.
00:36:44There, he finds Zixia struggling to tie the back of her dress,
00:36:47so he steps in and helps her.
00:36:49With frustration in his voice,
00:36:51he demands to know what's going on.
00:36:53Just then, a man steps out of the fitting room
00:36:55and explains that he is Zixia's mother's fiancé
00:36:58and that Zixia is only here to choose her mother's wedding dress.
00:37:01Ziyi quickly pretends that he ended up at the shop by coincidence,
00:37:04then casually tells her that he's busy and will be leaving.
00:37:08Meanwhile, Zixia recalls memories of Lin,
00:37:10specifically the time when she had planned
00:37:12to buy this very dress for her own wedding.
00:37:14Ziyi overhears her mumbling about it and with firm resolve,
00:37:18tells her to forget the past
00:37:19and start anew with him because he loves her.
00:37:21He then confesses that he had an accident a year ago
00:37:24that left his memory blurred,
00:37:25but being near her has reignited his love
00:37:28and despite everything, he wants to be with her.
00:37:30Zixia is overwhelmed with emotion
00:37:32and admits that she never truly got over him.
00:37:35At that moment, Ziyi steps closer and kisses her.
00:37:38Suddenly, Ziyi is struck by a severe headache.
00:37:41Alarmed, Zixia rushes to get him some water,
00:37:44but when she returns, he is nowhere to be found.
00:37:46She searches frantically until she finally finds him
00:37:49in another room, playing the piano.
00:37:52At that moment, it becomes clear,
00:37:54he is no longer Ziyi, he is Lin.
00:37:56Lin quickly pulls her into an embrace,
00:37:58telling her that he has missed her so much
00:38:00and hasn't seen her in a long time.
00:38:02Zixia is bewildered by his words
00:38:05and her confusion deepens when the police officer
00:38:07they had encountered twice
00:38:08before coincidentally enters the room.
00:38:10However, when the officer addresses Lin,
00:38:13he simply looks at him blankly
00:38:14and claims that he doesn't know who he is.
00:38:16The officer then takes Zixia aside
00:38:19and tells her that he once witnessed
00:38:20Ziyi being involved in an accident.
00:38:22He is referring to the incident
00:38:23where he recently saved Ziyi a few days ago,
00:38:26but Zixia mistakenly believes he is talking about
00:38:28the accident Ziyi had told her about,
00:38:31the one that supposedly caused his memory loss.
00:38:33This convinces her that Ziyi truly has amnesia,
00:38:36which is why he no longer recognizes the officer.
00:38:39Meanwhile, in the adjacent room,
00:38:41Ziyi is fighting against Lin,
00:38:43struggling to regain control of his body.
00:38:45But Lin insists that Zixia belongs to him alone
00:38:48and that Ziyi cannot love her.
00:38:50Ziyi, however, argues back,
00:38:52declaring that he is the true owner of this body
00:38:54and that in the end he will win.
00:38:56In the midst of this internal battle,
00:38:58Ziyi suddenly finds himself inside Lin's memories.
00:39:01He recalls a moment from the past,
00:39:03Zixia at the doctor's office,
00:39:05being advised to listen to music
00:39:06to help her cope with her panic attacks.
00:39:08By chance, while she was at a record store,
00:39:11she overheard a beautiful melody
00:39:13playing from a nearby cinema hall.
00:39:15Drawn to the music,
00:39:16she hurried inside,
00:39:17only to discover that Lin was the one playing it.
00:39:20Lin takes control of Ziyi's mind once again
00:39:22and tells him that Zixia met him first,
00:39:24so he considers himself her true love,
00:39:26not Ziyi.
00:39:27He insists that he will never give her up.
00:39:30Zixia goes to Ziyi's house with him
00:39:32while Lin is still in control of the body.
00:39:34She places her fingerprint on the door lock,
00:39:36telling him that she will come by any time
00:39:38to check on him.
00:39:39After she leaves, the two argue again.
00:39:42Lin tells Ziyi that whoever manages to obtain
00:39:44the key to her house will win her love.
00:39:46Lin falls asleep,
00:39:47and when Ziyi wakes up,
00:39:48he rushes to the doctor
00:39:50and asks what triggered Lin to emerge again.
00:39:52Ziyi says he doesn't know,
00:39:53but the doctor suggests,
00:39:55maybe you miss your brother Lin.
00:39:56It is then revealed that Ziyi once had a brother,
00:39:59but he insists that Lin's personality
00:40:01is completely different from his brother's.
00:40:03The doctor asks what he plans to do,
00:40:05and Ziyi replies that he will go to war with Lin
00:40:07and prove that Zixia will fall in love with him,
00:40:10not Lin.
00:40:10The next day,
00:40:11Lin takes control of the body again
00:40:13and visits Zixia to get the key.
00:40:15However, he finds her feeling unwell,
00:40:18so he stays to take care of her.
00:40:19Zixia asks him to look after her cat,
00:40:22and he does.
00:40:23Then, he sits down and prepares a meal for her.
00:40:25Zixia is surprised by his excessive care
00:40:28and begins to think that his personality
00:40:30feels different from the one she was with before.
00:40:32He seems to have returned
00:40:33to how he was before the accident.
00:40:35As she gets closer to Lin to kiss him,
00:40:37he suddenly loses consciousness.
00:40:39The next day,
00:40:40Ziyi wakes up to find the cat sleeping on his chest
00:40:42and screams, as he dislikes cats.
00:40:45This surprises Zixia,
00:40:46but then he notices a note left by Lin
00:40:48explaining what had happened the previous day.
00:40:50Zixia asks Ziyi to prepare a meal for her,
00:40:53but she is shocked to find
00:40:54that he can't even chop vegetables.
00:40:56When she asks him what's wrong,
00:40:58he tells her that he is not obligated to cook for her
00:41:00and that he will simply order food instead.
00:41:02A little later,
00:41:03he calls the company employees for a meeting at her house.
00:41:06Seeing them together in that situation,
00:41:08all the employees realize they are in a relationship.
00:41:11After a while,
00:41:12Ziyi brings in a private chef to cook for her.
00:41:15When Aixin lets the chef in,
00:41:17Zixia asks her if Ziyi was the one who prepared the food.
00:41:20Aixin tells her that Ziyi has never even
00:41:22set foot in a kitchen before.
00:41:24This surprises Zixia so much
00:41:26that she starts to wonder
00:41:27if she had been hallucinating the previous day.
00:41:29After the meeting,
00:41:30Zixia goes to Ziyi,
00:41:32and he hands her a box containing important files
00:41:34she will need in case he is unavailable.
00:41:37When Ziyi finds out that Lin kissed her the previous day,
00:41:39he feels jealous and kisses her as well.
00:41:42Then he asks her not to speak to him at all tomorrow
00:41:44because he has an appointment with the doctor
00:41:46and will not be in the best mood.
00:41:48The next day,
00:41:49when Zixia tries to avoid Ziyi as he requested,
00:41:52she unexpectedly runs into Lin.
00:41:54He is surprised by her behavior,
00:41:55and when she explains,
00:41:57he realizes what Ziyi has done and becomes furious.
00:42:00That evening,
00:42:01Ziyi speaks to Lin again
00:42:02and proposes a fair competition for Zixia's love.
00:42:05Each of them will spend one day with her interns.
00:42:07However,
00:42:08this turns out to be a complete disaster for Zixia.
00:42:11She becomes extremely confused
00:42:13by how Ziyi's behavior changes every day,
00:42:16asking for different things
00:42:17and forgetting what they talked about the day before.
00:42:19She starts to feel like she's losing her mind
00:42:21and even wonders if he might be mentally unstable.
00:42:24Desperate for answers,
00:42:26she visits a psychologist who dismisses her concerns,
00:42:29insisting that she must be lying to herself
00:42:31and that she is simply in love with two men,
00:42:33so she needs to choose between them.
00:42:35As she leaves,
00:42:36she finds herself seriously wondering
00:42:38if she is actually dating two completely different people.
00:42:41Meanwhile,
00:42:42at the company,
00:42:43Lin is caught off guard when Aishen informs him
00:42:45that the investor who had given them a chance before
00:42:47is now here for a second meeting.
00:42:49Lin becomes nervous.
00:42:51He knows nothing about Ziyi's work
00:42:53and has no idea how to handle the situation.
00:42:55But just as things seem to spiral out of control,
00:42:58Zixia suddenly enters the room,
00:43:00holding the files Ziyi had given her.
00:43:02She confidently presents all the details of the partnership
00:43:05to the investor and speaks on Ziyi's behalf.
00:43:07She describes him as hardworking and brilliant,
00:43:10even though he may seem cold and harsh.
00:43:12Hearing her words,
00:43:13Lin immediately realizes she is talking about Ziyi
00:43:16and a deep sense of jealousy burns inside him.
00:43:19After the meeting,
00:43:20they decide to attend the celebration organized by Ziyi's father.
00:43:23Aishen tells Lin that his father will be proud of him.
00:43:26So, for Ziyi's sake,
00:43:28Lin agrees to go to the event,
00:43:29leaving Zixia to return home alone.
00:43:32At the same time,
00:43:33Zixia begins to feel extremely dizzy due to low blood pressure
00:43:36and eventually loses consciousness.
00:43:38Meanwhile, at the party,
00:43:40Ziyi and Aishen are talking
00:43:41when she discovers Zixia's bracelet in Lin's pocket,
00:43:44realizing that it must have fallen from her.
00:43:47Ziyi immediately becomes worried.
00:43:49For the first time,
00:43:50he manages to take control of his real body while still awake.
00:43:53He runs toward Zixia,
00:43:55telling Lin that he will be the one to protect her now.
00:43:58Ziyi rushes back to the hotel and finds Zixia unconscious.
00:44:02He quickly calls an ambulance to take her to the hospital.
00:44:05There, Lin apologizes to Ziyi for leaving her alone
00:44:08just for the sake of the meeting.
00:44:09But Ziyi yells that Zixia is the most important thing in his life,
00:44:13more important than anything else.
00:44:14As he watches her,
00:44:15he tells himself that he must make a decision to protect Zixia,
00:44:19even if it means protecting her from himself.
00:44:21Meanwhile, Bufan is at a restaurant
00:44:23when he notices Aishen's boyfriend cheating on her.
00:44:26He takes pictures and goes to her immediately,
00:44:28but she asks him not to tell anyone and remains silent,
00:44:31showing no reaction.
00:44:33Later, she returns home feeling sad and tries to sleep
00:44:36but, as usual, suffers from insomnia.
00:44:39Suddenly, there is a knock on her door.
00:44:41She opens it to find Bufan standing there,
00:44:43telling her that he will stay with her for a while,
00:44:46even if they don't talk.
00:44:47The moment she sits beside him,
00:44:48she falls asleep on his shoulder.
00:44:51At that moment, Ziyi returns to the room,
00:44:53only to find that Zixia is not there.
00:44:55Lin appears once again and apologizes to Ziyi,
00:44:58saying he is truly sorry.
00:45:00However, Ziyi tells him that he is not capable of protecting Zixia.
00:45:04Just then, Zixia steps out of the bathroom
00:45:06and sees Ziyi talking to himself.
00:45:08But before she can question him,
00:45:10he quickly pulls her into a hug,
00:45:12telling her how worried he was
00:45:13and that he will never let her be harmed again.
00:45:16Later, Zixia sits with Bufan and confesses
00:45:18that she cannot understand Ziyi's behavior at all.
00:45:21There is something strange about him
00:45:22that she just can't figure out.
00:45:24Meanwhile, Ziyi meets with the doctor
00:45:26and tells him that he agrees to undergo
00:45:28the treatment they discussed before.
00:45:30The doctor asks,
00:45:31Do you love Zixia that much?
00:45:33Enough to risk your life.
00:45:35Ziyi responds that no matter which one of them survives,
00:45:37at the very least,
00:45:38he wants Zixia to have a good life.
00:45:40The next day, Bufan goes to check on Aishin again,
00:45:44only to find her boyfriend leaving her house.
00:45:46He storms upstairs,
00:45:47and when she opens the door,
00:45:49he scolds her for still holding on to that scumbag
00:45:51despite his betrayal.
00:45:53However, before she can respond,
00:45:55employees from their company suddenly step out.
00:45:57They had come to celebrate her birthday.
00:45:59Because of Bufan's outburst,
00:46:01everyone finds out she was cheated on.
00:46:03Feeling humiliated,
00:46:05Aishin watches as everyone awkwardly leaves.
00:46:08She then turns to Bufan, upset,
00:46:10and tells him that she had just broken up with her boyfriend
00:46:12and had convinced everyone
00:46:13that she was the one who ended things.
00:46:15She never wanted anyone to know he cheated on her.
00:46:18Overwhelmed with emotion,
00:46:19she begins to cry,
00:46:20but Bufan pulls her into a hug,
00:46:22telling her that her ex never deserved her in the first place.
00:46:26Meanwhile, Ziyi is deep in thought,
00:46:28trying to understand how he managed to break free
00:46:30and take control of his body.
00:46:32He suddenly remembers waking up on the floor
00:46:34and then recalls Zixia telling him
00:46:36that she had tried to kiss him the night before.
00:46:38Ziyi recalls how he managed to take control of his body
00:46:41when he was overwhelmed with fear for Zixia during the accident.
00:46:44This leads him to believe
00:46:45that whenever his emotions for her grow too strong,
00:46:48he can break free.
00:46:49And if this is happening to him,
00:46:51then it could also happen to Lin,
00:46:53meaning Lin could take over at any moment.
00:46:55Determined to prevent that,
00:46:56Ziyi decides to distance himself from Zixia
00:46:59until he completes his treatment.
00:47:01However, Zixia visits Ziyi's house,
00:47:03insisting on spending the day with him
00:47:05to make sure he is okay.
00:47:06She quickly notices that he is keeping his distance
00:47:09and even pushing her away.
00:47:10Just then, Ziyi's neighbor,
00:47:12a woman interested in him,
00:47:14arrives and starts flirting with him.
00:47:16Taking advantage of the distraction,
00:47:18Zixia sneaks into his room to look for anything unusual.
00:47:22She finds a note saying that Ziyi has an appointment
00:47:24with a psychiatrist the next day,
00:47:26which leaves her puzzled.
00:47:27When Ziyi returns,
00:47:28Zixia questions him about the neighbor
00:47:30and what she wants from him.
00:47:32She then moves closer
00:47:33and asks him to sit with her on the bed.
00:47:35Ziyi tenses up,
00:47:36but she surprises him
00:47:37by simply wanting to play cards.
00:47:39She hands him the joker card
00:47:41and tells him that as long as he holds onto it,
00:47:43she will forgive him for anything
00:47:45except betrayal.
00:47:46Afterward,
00:47:47she asks him to return the neighbor's belongings
00:47:49and to never interact with her again.
00:47:51While he is out,
00:47:52Zixia searches for the psychiatrist's name,
00:47:54determined to find him.
00:47:56When Ziyi returns,
00:47:57Zixia suggests they spend the day together,
00:47:59but Ziyi refuses and keeps avoiding her.
00:48:02She realizes that he is deliberately distancing himself,
00:48:05but he ultimately fails to resist her
00:48:07and ends up kissing her.
00:48:08When he notices that Lin does not emerge,
00:48:11he decides to spend the night with her.
00:48:13The next morning,
00:48:14Zixia wakes up to find a note from Ziyi
00:48:16saying he is going on a business trip.
00:48:18However,
00:48:19she immediately senses that he is lying
00:48:21and that he is actually going to see the psychiatrist.
00:48:23Without hesitation,
00:48:25she takes Bufan with her and heads to the clinic.
00:48:27Once there,
00:48:28Bufan distracts the doctor
00:48:29while Zixia sneaks into his office.
00:48:32She searches through Ziyi's medical records
00:48:34and finally uncovers everything
00:48:36he has been hiding from her.
00:48:37The doctor enters the room,
00:48:39but Zixia quickly escapes before bumping into Zi.
00:48:42They stand there,
00:48:43staring at each other in silence.
00:48:45Without a word,
00:48:46Zi takes her to his room
00:48:47and finally starts telling her everything from the beginning.
00:48:50He confesses that he has suffered from this disorder
00:48:52since he was 20
00:48:53and that the person she met at the start
00:48:55was actually Lin,
00:48:56not him.
00:48:57However,
00:48:57despite everything
00:48:58he has now fallen in love with her for real.
00:49:01Zixia,
00:49:02overwhelmed with emotions,
00:49:03begins to cry.
00:49:05She tells him that he deceived her
00:49:06and that she cannot believe
00:49:07the first person she met was Lin,
00:49:09not him.
00:49:10She recalls how cruel Lin was to her,
00:49:12even going so far as to abandon her in the hotel that night,
00:49:15leaving her only money before disappearing.
00:49:18Ziyi takes out the joker card
00:49:19and reminds her that she promised to forgive him
00:49:21as long as he kept it.
00:49:22But Zixia shakes her head,
00:49:24saying that things are not that simple.
00:49:26She cannot forgive him because he lied to her.
00:49:29Then she asks whether it was him or Lin
00:49:31who saved her when the hotel collapsed.
00:49:33When Ziyi admits that it was Lin,
00:49:35Zixia feels utterly broken.
00:49:37She tells him that she never wants to see him again.
00:49:39Ziyi, just as shattered,
00:49:41tells her that he always knew
00:49:42she would choose Lin over him.
00:49:44At that moment,
00:49:45Zixia remembers hearing Ziyi talking to himself before,
00:49:48saying,
00:49:49we'll see who she chooses between us.
00:49:51Ziyi turns to leave,
00:49:52but Zixia,
00:49:53feeling an unbearable ache in her heart,
00:49:55follows him.
00:49:56As she runs after him,
00:49:58memories of everything they shared flash through her mind,
00:50:01how he took care of her,
00:50:02how he brought her a private chef
00:50:03just to make sure she ate,
00:50:05all the small moments of kindness he showed her.
00:50:07But when she finally reaches him,
00:50:09Ziyi stops her with cold eyes and says,
00:50:11if you won't be with me,
00:50:12I won't let you be with Lin either
00:50:14while using my body.
00:50:15Ziyi leaves,
00:50:16and a whole month passes
00:50:17while he remains in the hospital,
00:50:19refusing to see her.
00:50:21When his psychiatrist speaks to him,
00:50:22Ziyi explains that he is undergoing treatment
00:50:24to free his body from Lin
00:50:26to reclaim it as his own and no one else's.
00:50:29He does not want to hear Zixia's name.
00:50:31After Ziyi is discharged from the hospital,
00:50:33Zixia is working diligently at the hotel
00:50:36while Bufan tries to lift her spirits.
00:50:38Around this time,
00:50:39a young woman named Youyou appears.
00:50:41She is the daughter of a well-known investor.
00:50:44She asks her father to arrange her marriage to Ziyi
00:50:46because she loves him.
00:50:48Her father agrees and begins a business partnership with Ziyi.
00:50:51When Youyou meets Ziyi,
00:50:53she expresses her admiration for him
00:50:54and her eagerness to work with him,
00:50:56but Ziyi makes it clear that he does not mix business
00:50:59with personal relationships.
00:51:00When Zixia's uncle informs her about this,
00:51:03she replies that she does not care.
00:51:05The next day,
00:51:06Youyou meets Ziyi again and proposes
00:51:08that they pretend to be in a relationship
00:51:09in front of the media
00:51:10as it would boost their company's stock value.
00:51:13Ziyi agrees,
00:51:14but only to provoke Zixia's jealousy for leaving him.
00:51:17He publicly announces to the press
00:51:19that he is dating Youyou
00:51:20but warns her not to overstep her boundaries
00:51:22as he does not love her.
00:51:24Later, when Youyou visits his home
00:51:26and picks up one of Zixia's belongings,
00:51:28Ziyi snatches it away from her,
00:51:30telling her to stay away from Zixia's things
00:51:32before kicking her out.
00:51:33At that moment,
00:51:34Youyou realizes that Ziyi has not moved on from Zixia.
00:51:38At the same time,
00:51:39Bufan goes to meet Aishin,
00:51:41only to find her ex-boyfriend there,
00:51:42trying to win her back.
00:51:44Without hesitation,
00:51:45Bufan quickly pushes him away
00:51:47and takes out a wedding ring,
00:51:48asking her to be his.
00:51:50Aishin tells him she accepts.
00:51:52When she returns home,
00:51:53Bufan kisses her and expresses how happy he is.
00:51:56However,
00:51:57she suddenly receives a call from Ziyi's uncle
00:51:59and her expression darkens.
00:52:01She takes off the ring,
00:52:02asks Bufan to forget about her completely,
00:52:05and forces him to leave.
00:52:06But Bufan is certain she does not mean it from her heart
00:52:09and suspects the call has something to do with it.
00:52:11Meanwhile,
00:52:12Youyou takes Ziyi to choose a wedding dress
00:52:14in front of the press
00:52:15to make their engagement appear real.
00:52:17While browsing,
00:52:18Ziyi notices the dress Zixia once admired
00:52:21and decides to buy it
00:52:22just to ensure no one else gets it.
00:52:23At that moment,
00:52:24Zixia is also in the store,
00:52:26helping a hotel client pick a dress.
00:52:28When she sees Ziyi and Youyou together,
00:52:31she stares at him blankly
00:52:32before calmly wishing him a happy marriage
00:52:34as if she feels no jealousy at all.
00:52:36This only fuels Ziyi's anger,
00:52:38her indifference infuriates him.
00:52:40He then grabs Youyou's hand
00:52:42and she smirks,
00:52:43saying,
00:52:44Listen,
00:52:44we'll be holding our wedding at your hotel.
00:52:46Ziyi is taken aback,
00:52:48but he is even more shocked
00:52:49when Zixia responds with a composed smile,
00:52:52saying she would be delighted to host them
00:52:53before walking away.
00:52:55The next day,
00:52:56Youyou visits Zixia,
00:52:57sensing that Ziyi still has feelings for her.
00:53:00She tells Zixia that
00:53:01not only will they have their wedding at her hotel,
00:53:03but Zixia will also be responsible
00:53:05for organizing the event
00:53:06and selecting their wedding rings.
00:53:08Despite her heartbreak,
00:53:09Zixia agrees,
00:53:11stating that as long as it benefits the hotel,
00:53:13she has no problem with it.
00:53:14Youyou informs Ziyi
00:53:16about Zixia agreeing to plan their wedding
00:53:18and he feels a deep sadness.
00:53:20Zixia has moved on so much
00:53:21that she's willing to organize the event herself.
00:53:24However,
00:53:24he reminds Youyou not to forget
00:53:26that this wedding is fake,
00:53:28merely a business strategy
00:53:29to boost their stock value.
00:53:30On the wedding day,
00:53:31Zixia is visibly tense and sorrowful.
00:53:34Midway through the event,
00:53:36the power suddenly goes out.
00:53:37Ziyi immediately remembers
00:53:39how Zixia once told him
00:53:40that she suffers from panic attacks in the dark.
00:53:43Without hesitation,
00:53:44he grabs her hand and rushes her outside,
00:53:46leaving the guests bewildered.
00:53:48From behind the stage,
00:53:49Bufan steps forward
00:53:51and announces to everyone
00:53:52that the wedding is nothing
00:53:53but a fabricated event for business purposes.
00:53:55The revelation causes an immediate scandal.
00:53:58Meanwhile,
00:53:59Zixia pulls away from Ziyi,
00:54:01who insists that he was only worried about her.
00:54:03But she tells him their relationship ended
00:54:05because he lied to her
00:54:06and she will never return to him.
00:54:08Refusing to give up,
00:54:09Ziyi starts following her everywhere,
00:54:12trying to express his feelings.
00:54:13But she avoids him every time,
00:54:15haunted by the memories of his betrayal.
00:54:18The next day,
00:54:19she stumbles with the famous idol again,
00:54:21who now is officially the brother
00:54:22of her mom's husband.
00:54:24She takes him to meet Ziyi
00:54:25and pretends they are now a couple.
00:54:27However,
00:54:28Ziyi immediately finds the idol's behavior
00:54:30suspicious and overly exaggerated.
00:54:32He starts mocking them,
00:54:33unable to believe Zixia's act.
00:54:35But she coldly tells him
00:54:37to forget about her entirely
00:54:38because she will never return to him.
00:54:40As Ziyi leaves,
00:54:41the idol turns to Zixia and asks,
00:54:43Ziyi clearly loves you.
00:54:45Why are you treating him so harshly?
00:54:47She replies,
00:54:48Love isn't everything.
00:54:50He lied to me while we were together.
00:54:52Later that night,
00:54:53Zixia goes out drinking
00:54:54and ends up completely intoxicated.
00:54:56Ziyi, who had been secretly following her,
00:54:59watches from a distance.
00:55:00Just as she is about to collapse,
00:55:02he quickly catches her.
00:55:03The moment she finds herself in his arms,
00:55:05she mumbles,
00:55:06I love you,
00:55:07before losing consciousness.
00:55:09Ziyi carried Zixia home
00:55:10and without warning,
00:55:12she kissed him,
00:55:12confessing that she had never forgotten him.
00:55:15Just as joy began to fill his heart,
00:55:17his eyes fell on her bag,
00:55:18where he found a photo of her with Lin.
00:55:20In that moment,
00:55:21he realized that no matter what he did,
00:55:23Zixia would always love the illusion
00:55:25he had created,
00:55:26not him.
00:55:27A wave of sorrow and despair
00:55:29consumed Ziyi so intensely
00:55:31that it allowed Lin to resurface once again.
00:55:33Lin rushed to Zixia,
00:55:34who opened the door
00:55:35only to freeze in shock
00:55:36when he told her,
00:55:37I'm Lin, Nazi.
00:55:39At first,
00:55:40she refused to believe him,
00:55:41but when he recounted memories
00:55:43of their time together,
00:55:44she had no choice
00:55:45but to accept the truth.
00:55:46Lin stepped inside
00:55:47and casually started preparing food,
00:55:49brushing off the problems
00:55:50between Ziyi and Zixia,
00:55:52claiming they had nothing to do with him.
00:55:54However,
00:55:55for the first time,
00:55:56Zixia felt uneasy in his presence.
00:55:58He suddenly seemed like a stranger to her.
00:56:00The next day,
00:56:01Zixia attended her mother's wedding
00:56:03with Lin by her side.
00:56:04While he played the piano,
00:56:06Zixia found herself
00:56:07envisioning Ziyi in his place
00:56:09as if he were the one sitting before her.
00:56:11After the ceremony,
00:56:12Lin confessed his deep love for her,
00:56:14but Zixia told him
00:56:15that whether it was him or Ziyi,
00:56:17she could never go back.
00:56:18She explained that he had countless chances
00:56:20to tell her the truth,
00:56:21that he was just a persona
00:56:22created by Ziyi's mind,
00:56:24but he never did.
00:56:25That alone made both him
00:56:26and Ziyi equally untrustworthy.
00:56:28She firmly asked him
00:56:29to leave her life,
00:56:30both of them.
00:56:31Lin returned home,
00:56:32heartbroken.
00:56:33For the first time,
00:56:34both he and Ziyi
00:56:36fully understood each other's pain.
00:56:37In their shared sorrow,
00:56:39they found comfort in one another.
00:56:41Meanwhile,
00:56:42Zixia was with her mother,
00:56:43pretending to be fine,
00:56:44but in reality,
00:56:45she was crying and venting
00:56:47about everything happening.
00:56:48She confessed that Ziyi and Lin's actions
00:56:50were driving her insane
00:56:51and that she wanted to escape,
00:56:53but having him in the same hotel
00:56:54made it impossible.
00:56:56Her mother reassured her,
00:56:57promising to help her
00:56:58out of this situation.
00:56:59She immediately called her manager
00:57:01and ordered him to withdraw
00:57:02all her money from the bank.
00:57:04The next day,
00:57:05Zixia woke up hungover
00:57:06and discovered what her mother had done.
00:57:08Though she regretted it,
00:57:09she still handed Zixia the money
00:57:11before leaving for her honeymoon.
00:57:13Zixia later told the idol
00:57:15that her relationship with Ziyi
00:57:16was truly over
00:57:17and that she needed to accept it.
00:57:19At the same time,
00:57:20Ziyi's father and Youyou's father
00:57:22sat together,
00:57:23each blaming the other for the scandal.
00:57:25Youyou's father demanded an apology,
00:57:27but before anything could escalate,
00:57:29Zixia stormed into the room.
00:57:31She handed Ziyi's father the money
00:57:32and announced that she wanted
00:57:34to buy Ziyi's shares in the company.
00:57:36As she turned to leave,
00:57:37Ziyi's father coldly told her
00:57:39to stay away from his son entirely.
00:57:41Just then, Ziyi walked in.
00:57:43He saw the money
00:57:44and overheard his father's words.
00:57:46Without hesitation,
00:57:47he grabbed the cash
00:57:48and threw it into the bathtub,
00:57:49glaring at his father.
00:57:51You will never be able to buy Zixia with money,
00:57:53and she would never leave me for money,
00:57:55he shouted.
00:57:56But Zixia's voice cut through the tension.
00:57:59This is my money.
00:58:00I took it to buy your shares.
00:58:02Ziyi immediately jumped into the tub
00:58:03to retrieve the soaked bills,
00:58:05only for Zixia to lose her balance
00:58:07and fall in after him.
00:58:08Both Ziyi and Zixia frantically
00:58:10tried to dry the soaked money.
00:58:12As Ziyi moved closer
00:58:14to help dry her hair,
00:58:15Zixia felt her heart waver.
00:58:17She still had feelings for him
00:58:18despite her fear of stepping back
00:58:20into a life with him.
00:58:21Later, she went to speak with his father
00:58:23about purchasing the shares
00:58:24but quickly noticed signs
00:58:25of early Alzheimer's in him.
00:58:27Concerned, she left
00:58:28and immediately informed Ziyi
00:58:30about his father's condition.
00:58:32When Ziyi entered the room,
00:58:33he found his father unconscious.
00:58:35Panic set in as they rushed
00:58:36to call a doctor.
00:58:38After receiving treatment,
00:58:39his father weakly admitted to Zixia
00:58:41that his illness was due to the stress
00:58:42caused by Ziyi.
00:58:44Stepping outside,
00:58:45Zixia confronted Ziyi.
00:58:46No matter what issues you have with him,
00:58:48you need to take better care of your father.
00:58:50Understanding her words,
00:58:52Ziyi took her to a room
00:58:53where he had prepared a photo album
00:58:55filled with pictures of his father
00:58:56and his friends.
00:58:57He hoped it would help his father
00:58:59remember happier times.
00:59:00But Zixia felt it wasn't enough.
00:59:02Determined,
00:59:03she started creating a new album.
00:59:05This time,
00:59:06instead of just pictures,
00:59:07she added captions beneath each one,
00:59:09describing the events
00:59:10in Ziyi's father's life
00:59:11just as Ziyi had told them to her.
00:59:13When Ziyi handed the completed album
00:59:15to his father,
00:59:16the old man's face lit up with joy.
00:59:18The effect became even more evident
00:59:20when an old friend came to visit.
00:59:22Ziyi's father was able to converse with him
00:59:24without forgetting details,
00:59:26something he hadn't been able to do
00:59:27in a long time.
00:59:28Feeling grateful,
00:59:29he made a decision.
00:59:30He visited Yoyo's father
00:59:32and firmly declared,
00:59:33My son will not marry Yoyo
00:59:35just for the sake of company shares.
00:59:37But if you still wish to collaborate with us
00:59:39as business partners,
00:59:40I'd be more than happy to discuss it.
00:59:42Ziyi's father then went to his son
00:59:44and told him,
00:59:45From now on,
00:59:46you are free to do whatever you wish.
00:59:48Zixia is an amazing woman,
00:59:50and if you want to sell the hotel shares to her,
00:59:52go ahead.
00:59:53He also sincerely apologized
00:59:54for any pain he had caused him in the past.
00:59:57Taking the contract,
00:59:58Ziyi went straight to Zixia
01:00:00and told her he had accepted her offer.
01:00:02The hotel was now officially hers.
01:00:04I'll do anything to make you happy,
01:00:06he added before inviting her to dinner.
01:00:08Later,
01:00:09Ziyi visited a grave,
01:00:10Lin's grave.
01:00:11It was revealed that Lin wasn't his brother,
01:00:14but his cousin,
01:00:14whom he had always treated as a sibling.
01:00:17Standing before the tombstone,
01:00:18Ziyi murmured,
01:00:19I miss you so much,
01:00:21but I'm doing fine now.
01:00:22At that moment,
01:00:23Ziyi's uncle arrived.
01:00:25His voice was filled with anger as he demanded,
01:00:27What are you doing here?
01:00:29Why are you visiting my son's grave?
01:00:31You're the reason he died.
01:00:32Ziyi returned home that night,
01:00:34haunted by nightmares of his cousin's death.
01:00:36In his dreams,
01:00:37voices echoed around him,
01:00:39accusing him of being responsible.
01:00:41The weight of his guilt was overwhelming,
01:00:43and when he finally woke up,
01:00:45he wasn't himself anymore.
01:00:47Lin had taken over.
01:00:48Realizing what had happened,
01:00:49Lin tried to reach Ziyi,
01:00:51calling out to him from within,
01:00:52but there was no response.
01:00:54No matter how hard he tried,
01:00:55he couldn't break through.
01:00:57Desperate,
01:00:57Lin went to see Zixia.
01:00:59I'm not Ziyi,
01:01:00he told her.
01:01:01I'm Lin,
01:01:02and I can't even talk to him anymore.
01:01:03He doesn't want to come back.
01:01:05Zixia,
01:01:06seeing the distress in his eyes,
01:01:07asked,
01:01:08Then tell me,
01:01:09why did Ziyi develop this disorder in the first place?
01:01:12But Lin refused.
01:01:13Ziyi wouldn't want me to share his secrets.
01:01:15Determined to find the truth,
01:01:17Zixia made a bold move.
01:01:19She kidnapped Ziyi's psychiatrist.
01:01:21Holding him hostage,
01:01:22she threatened him,
01:01:23saying,
01:01:23If you don't tell me exactly what happened to Ziyi to make him this way,
01:01:27I won't let you go.
01:01:28Faced with no other option,
01:01:29the doctor revealed the truth.
01:01:31When Ziyi was a child,
01:01:32Lin was kidnapped by his father's rivals,
01:01:35who mistook him for Ziyi,
01:01:36hoping to use him as leverage.
01:01:38Though Lin managed to escape,
01:01:40he got into an accident and died.
01:01:42Since that day,
01:01:43Ziyi's uncle had blamed him for Lin's death.
01:01:45Ziyi,
01:01:46who had always seen Lin as a brother,
01:01:48couldn't bear the guilt.
01:01:49To cope,
01:01:50his mind created an alternate personality,
01:01:52and ever since then,
01:01:53he had been trapped in this endless battle within himself.
01:01:56Hearing the story,
01:01:57Zixia felt a deep sadness for Ziyi.
01:02:00At this time,
01:02:01Lin is struggling because Ziyi refuses to go out,
01:02:04even though there's an important deal that must be completed.
01:02:07Ziyi is unable to handle the situation,
01:02:09and no matter how much Lin tries to talk to him
01:02:11and get him to come out,
01:02:13he fails to communicate with him.
01:02:14Meanwhile,
01:02:15Youyou goes to Ziyi's uncle
01:02:17and tells him she wants revenge on Ziyi for leaving her.
01:02:20She decides to cooperate with him.
01:02:22The next day,
01:02:23Youyou goes to the company
01:02:24and claims that Ziyi's actions have harmed her father's company.
01:02:27She demands compensation instead of filing a lawsuit against him.
01:02:31However,
01:02:32Lin and Zixia refuse to give in.
01:02:34Lin tells Youyou that he will pay the compensation
01:02:36but asks for time until the next day.
01:02:39Later,
01:02:39Lin and Zixia sit together,
01:02:41trying to find a way to counter Youyou.
01:02:43But Zixia struggles to open the top file,
01:02:46no matter how much she tries.
01:02:48At that moment,
01:02:49Ziyi's uncle calls,
01:02:50and Lin answers.
01:02:51The uncle firmly tells him that he will never do what Lin wants
01:02:54and will not surrender to Youyou.
01:02:56Just then,
01:02:57Zixia guesses that the password might be Lin's name,
01:03:00and she turns out to be right.
01:03:01Lin manages to find a recording of Youyou admitting that the wedding was a lie.
01:03:05He then impersonates Ziyi and threatens Youyou,
01:03:08warning her that he will expose her if she doesn't leave him alone.
01:03:11His plan works.
01:03:13Aishin had been closely observing the situation.
01:03:16Although she was proud of what Ziyi did,
01:03:18she still informed his uncle about it,
01:03:19telling him how Ziyi had kicked Youyou out of the company.
01:03:23Aishin returns home,
01:03:24torn between happiness for Ziyi and loyalty to his uncle,
01:03:27who once did her a favor she could never forget.
01:03:30Suddenly, there's a knock on the door,
01:03:32and Bufan enters.
01:03:33He is still trying to win her love.
01:03:35During their conversation,
01:03:36Aishin learns from him that Ziyi has been seeing a therapist.
01:03:40She then sends a man to sneak into the company and investigate Di.
01:03:44However, at that moment,
01:03:45Zixia is still in the company.
01:03:47When she sees the intruder,
01:03:49she hides.
01:03:50She quickly calls security to come up,
01:03:52but the man hears her.
01:03:53Just as he is about to attack her,
01:03:55Lin appears and saves her.
01:03:57Zixia hugged Lin in fear but quickly pulled away
01:03:59when she remembered that he was Lin, not Ziyi.
01:04:02Seeing this, Lin visits the psychiatrist the next day,
01:04:05asking how they can bring Ziyi back.
01:04:07The doctor is surprised by Lin's boldness
01:04:09and his desire to restore Ziyi,
01:04:11despite how unnatural it is.
01:04:13He warns Lin that if Ziyi doesn't return,
01:04:15there will be severe consequences.
01:04:17The only way to bring Ziyi back
01:04:19is for Lin to want to leave so badly
01:04:21that it forces Ziyi to return.
01:04:23Later, the psychiatrist meets with Zixia
01:04:25and asks her to convince Lin to leave
01:04:27because his presence poses a danger to Ziyi.
01:04:29The body can only accept one of them,
01:04:31and ultimately, Ziyi is the original owner.
01:04:34What they don't realize is that Lin is secretly listening.
01:04:37He finally understands that Zixia truly loves Ziyi, not him.
01:04:41Meanwhile, Aixin hands Ziyi's uncle
01:04:44all the details of his psychological condition,
01:04:46unaware that Bufan is secretly watching them.
01:04:49Aixin asks Ziyi's uncle to let her resign,
01:04:52but he refuses.
01:04:53He reminds her of his kindness,
01:04:55how he paid for her education,
01:04:56and that without him, she wouldn't be where she is now.
01:04:59He insists that she must continue what she's doing.
01:05:02At that moment, Bufan realizes that she is the spy.
01:05:05Bufan tells her that when he first fell in love with her,
01:05:08she was gentle, kind, and compassionate.
01:05:11He warns her that she should hold on
01:05:12to that version of herself
01:05:14and not lose herself in what she is doing.
01:05:16At that time, the uncle went to Ziyi's father
01:05:18with the reports and told him
01:05:20that if this report leaked to the board of directors,
01:05:22Ziyi would be completely removed from his position
01:05:25because he was unqualified for it.
01:05:27Ziyi's father, who seemed to already be aware of the matter,
01:05:30pleaded with his brother not to do this,
01:05:32reminding him that they were family in the end.
01:05:34However, his brother told him that his son, Lin,
01:05:37had died because of Ziyi,
01:05:38and that was something he would never forgive them
01:05:40for as long as he lived.
01:05:42Ziyi's father collapsed from a heart attack,
01:05:44and when he reached for his medication,
01:05:46his brother threw it into the swimming pool before leaving.
01:05:49Ziyi's father was rushed to the hospital,
01:05:51and there, Lin went to check on him, feeling sorrowful.
01:05:54Lin then went to Zixia and told her
01:05:56that he would be leaving forever
01:05:58and that he was happy for her and Ziyi.
01:06:00Zixia felt sorry for him,
01:06:02knowing he would leave
01:06:02without ever becoming a famous musician.
01:06:05She took him to the theater and asked him to play for her.
01:06:08Just for today, she would be his only audience.
01:06:11At that time, Aixin visited Ziyi's father
01:06:13and gave him a gift,
01:06:14thanking him for everything he had done for her.
01:06:17However, she told him that she would be leaving China
01:06:19and would no longer continue what she had been doing.
01:06:22Meanwhile, the uncle returned to the hotel,
01:06:24where he heard the sound of music.
01:06:26He entered the theater and found Lin playing the first piece
01:06:29that his son, Lin, had ever composed.
01:06:31In that moment, he realized that the mysterious figure Lin
01:06:35was actually his deceased son.
01:06:37Later, Lin took Zixia home and told her that the next day,
01:06:40she would find that Ziyi had awakened.
01:06:42But before he could leave,
01:06:43Uncle Ziyi arrived and told Lin
01:06:45that he would help him leave China
01:06:47and live as Lin forever,
01:06:48where no one would recognize him.
01:06:50Though his uncle's true intention
01:06:51was to get rid of him and kill him,
01:06:53Lin suddenly recalled
01:06:54how he had found his uncle's shirt button
01:06:56in his father's hand.
01:06:57That was when he realized
01:06:58that his uncle was the one orchestrating everything.
01:07:01Lin rushed home and tried to contact Ziyi,
01:07:04warning him that their uncle had attempted to kill his father
01:07:06and was planning to take over the company.
01:07:08He also told him that Zixia would inevitably be in danger.
01:07:12Ziyi finally woke up and regained control of his body,
01:07:15but he refused to reveal himself as Ziyi.
01:07:17Instead, he chose to remain as Lin
01:07:19in order to trap his uncle.
01:07:21When Zixia met him
01:07:22and asked whether he was Ziyi or Lin,
01:07:24he told her he was Lin
01:07:25and that he couldn't bring Ziyi back.
01:07:27Disappointment appeared on Zixia's face,
01:07:29and he noticed it clearly.
01:07:31She reminded him that he had promised to bring Ziyi back.
01:07:34He told her he would try again
01:07:35and just needed more time.
01:07:37Sighing, Zixia went to make some tea,
01:07:39but she accidentally burned her hand.
01:07:41When Ziyi rushed to help her,
01:07:42she pulled away and told him she was leaving.
01:07:45This made Ziyi happy
01:07:46as he realized she didn't love Lin.
01:07:48However, a while later,
01:07:50Zixia had to return because she had forgotten her phone.
01:07:53When she charged it at home,
01:07:54she discovered a recorded video of Lin and his uncle.
01:07:57In the video,
01:07:58Lin was making a deal with his uncle
01:08:00to remain in Ziyi's body forever
01:08:02in exchange for giving his uncle all of the company's shares
01:08:05while keeping his secret safe.
01:08:07Zixia was shocked,
01:08:08but before she could react,
01:08:09she sensed something behind her.
01:08:11She turned to find Ziyi,
01:08:12who told her that this was the only way he could protect her.
01:08:15He then tied her up and locked her in a room.
01:08:18When he later brought her food,
01:08:19Zixia firmly told him
01:08:21that she would never let him take over Ziyi's body,
01:08:23that she loved Ziyi, not him,
01:08:25and that no matter what he did,
01:08:26she would never love him.
01:08:28Ziyi recorded her words and left the room quickly,
01:08:31his heart pounding violently.
01:08:33At last, he realized that Zixia truly loved him,
01:08:36not Lin,
01:08:37and he felt an overwhelming happiness.
01:08:39However, he forced himself not to confess the truth to her.
01:08:42After that,
01:08:43Ziyi went to meet his uncle and finalized their agreement.
01:08:46The uncle went to the company
01:08:47and informed the board members that Ziyi was ill and,
01:08:50unfortunately,
01:08:51he would have to take over running the company
01:08:53until Ziyi fully recovered.
01:08:54However, at that moment,
01:08:56Ziyi arrived,
01:08:57his true self,
01:08:58and told everyone that his uncle was a liar and a fraud.
01:09:01He then presented recordings he had obtained
01:09:03through the gift watch that Aixin had given his uncle.
01:09:06This watch had allowed him to record
01:09:08all of his uncle's confessions during every meeting they had.
01:09:11The police arrived to arrest the uncle,
01:09:13but he managed to escape.
01:09:15Meanwhile, in the locked room,
01:09:16Zixia noticed that the food Lin had prepared was burnt.
01:09:20She suddenly realized that this was actually Ziyi,
01:09:22not Lin,
01:09:23since Ziyi didn't know how to cook.
01:09:25When she stepped into the kitchen,
01:09:26she found it in complete chaos,
01:09:28confirming her suspicion,
01:09:30it was indeed Ziyi.
01:09:31Just then,
01:09:32Bufan arrived,
01:09:33untied her,
01:09:34and told her that Ziyi was the one who had sent him.
01:09:37Zixia immediately rushed to the company,
01:09:39desperate to find Ziyi.
01:09:41As soon as she got out of the car and saw him,
01:09:43she was about to run toward him
01:09:44when the uncle suddenly appeared,
01:09:46attempting to kill her by ramming into her with his car.
01:09:49But Ziyi moved quickly toward her,
01:09:51taking the hit instead.
01:09:52In that moment,
01:09:53we saw Ziyi within his subconscious mind,
01:09:55watching the scene unfold.
01:09:57It became clear that Lin had taken over the body
01:09:59at the last second,
01:10:00to protect Zixia.
01:10:02In a flashback,
01:10:03we see that Lin and Ziyi
01:10:04had indeed been kidnapped together by the gang.
01:10:07Both of them managed to escape,
01:10:08but just before they could,
01:10:09Lin was hit by a car right in front of Ziyi's eyes.
01:10:12Finally,
01:10:13Lin spoke to Ziyi,
01:10:14telling him that when he had been created
01:10:16in Ziyi's mind as a child,
01:10:18his only purpose was to stay with him,
01:10:20protect him,
01:10:21and keep him from being alone.
01:10:22But now,
01:10:23Ziyi was no longer alone.
01:10:25He had Zixia.
01:10:26It was time for Lin to leave.
01:10:28He asked Ziyi to take good care of Zixia
01:10:30and not to forget to visit his grave with her.
01:10:32A moment later,
01:10:33Ziyi finally opened his eyes
01:10:34and saw Zixia crying.
01:10:36He reassured her that he was okay.
01:10:38Ziyi's uncle was finally arrested,
01:10:40and at the hospital,
01:10:42the doctor assured them that Ziyi's father
01:10:44was in stable condition.
01:10:45Aishen arrived as well,
01:10:46apologizing to Ziyi
01:10:48for everything she had done in the past.
01:10:50She told him that she would resign and leave China.
01:10:52But before she could,
01:10:54Bu Fan stopped her,
01:10:55telling her that he wouldn't let her leave alone,
01:10:57that he truly loved her.
01:10:59At last,
01:10:59she agreed to date him,
01:11:01and they left together.
01:11:02Later,
01:11:03Ziyi invited Zixia to dinner.
01:11:05While they were there,
01:11:06Zixia overheard that a man was going to propose
01:11:08to his girlfriend that night.
01:11:10She felt a surge of excitement,
01:11:11thinking it was Ziyi's plan.
01:11:13However,
01:11:14when Ziyi arrived,
01:11:15he seemed unaware of any proposal
01:11:17and talked about ordinary things,
01:11:19leaving Zixia disappointed.
01:11:20Ziyi noticed her expression
01:11:22and asked if she had been expecting something from him.
01:11:24She denied it,
01:11:25but deep inside,
01:11:26her hope faded as she watched another man
01:11:29propose to his girlfriend.
01:11:30But then,
01:11:31to her surprise,
01:11:32she realized it had all been part of Ziyi's plan.
01:11:35He pulled out a ring
01:11:36and proposed to her in front of everyone.
01:11:38Overjoyed,
01:11:39Zixia accepted.
01:11:40The series ended with Ziyi and Zixia's wedding,
01:11:43surrounded by all the people who loved them,
01:11:45both of them radiating happiness
01:11:47as they embarked on their new life together.
