Male lead, the crown prince of the Duan family and the top financial tycoon in Beijing. He is tall (about six feet three inches), with broad shoulders and a striking appearance. In high school, he was known as a rebellious, unconventional, arrogant, and flamboyant figure who skipped class, sported silver-gray hair, and skated around school corridors defying all rules. He sat behind Jin Wu in their key class and often teased her, calling her Little Monitor, playing with her hair, and taking her black dog pen. Despite his rebellious image, he ranked second in the year academically. On the day of the high school graduation ceremony, he was involved in a car accident and disappeared from their lives. He reappears in the present, now with black hair, mature and sharp features, still retaining his wild and unrestrained spirit. He catches Jin Wu when she nearly falls and shows clear affection and protectiveness toward her.
