Luo Jing is given a second chance at life, but it comes with a warning: her husband, Wu Mei, begs her not to attend a shipboard ceremony after a fortuneteller predicts she might drown. Ignoring his concerns, Luo Jing goes—and disaster strikes.

Assassins attack the ceremony, leaving Wu Mei gravely injured by a poisoned dagger. Luo Jing becomes their next target, but she narrowly escapes with the help of Liu Xiu Wen, who jumps into the water with her. Though they survive, both are seriously hurt and go missing.

As Wu Mei lies bedridden and heartbroken, desperate to find his wife, Luo Jing struggles to save Xiu Wen, unaware of her husband’s condition. With emotions running high and misunderstandings growing, their marriage begins to unravel—especially when the Emperor steps in and complicates matters even further.
