After discovering she was pregnant, Jiang Lexi found out that her husband, Shi Yan, had been carrying on an affair with his first love, Xu Wenting. Even the name they had chosen for their baby had its roots in Xu Wenting. When Jiang demanded a divorce, both families turned on her and tore her apart—Shi Yan even slapped her across the face in public. Broken and desperate, she attempted suicide by jumping from a building. She survived, but lost the child.
In the hospital, she met Gu Shiyu, a man who genuinely adored her. With his encouragement, she threw herself into therapy, reclaimed her sense of self, and saw everything with brutal clarity. Resolute, she pushed through the divorce, blocked every member of her family, deleted all her contact information, and left for a faraway place to start over.
In the end, consumed by remorse, Shi Yan murdered Xu Wenting. But Jiang Lexi had already made her choice—she refused to look back. She walked forward.
