Cursed with a pure Yang physique, Adrian Kingsley will die before thirty unless he bonds with a pure Yin woman. He finally finds poor college student Elena Reed, whose peach blossom birthmark marks her as his only savior. Desperate for survival, he forces her into marriage, treating her cruelly at first.
Moved by Elena’s kindness and selfless sacrifice, Adrian softens. Their bond saves him but nearly kills Elena. Rescued by her grandmother, she fakes her death, loses her sight, and secretly raises their daughter alone for seven years.
To fund her daughter’s tuition, Elena joins a dating show. Adrian hides his identity to chase and redeem her, begging and cherishing her sincerely. Just as she forgives him and accepts his proposal, her sight returns, and she recognizes his cruel past.
Elena shatters their pendant and leaves resolutely. To atone for his crimes, Adrian dies saving her in a car crash and donates his heart, whispering his last words: “I finally repay the life I owed you.”
