Yun Wei awakens in a private hospital in Haicheng, her fragmented memories revealing she has transmigrated into the body of a tragic young heiress. The original host was the beloved daughter of the Yun family and the fiancée of Gu Jin, the CEO of the Gu Group. Their engagement was considered a fairy tale in high society until Gu Jin disappeared on the eve of their wedding. The original Yun Wei spent a year frantically searching for him, neglecting her health until she collapsed. When Gu Jin finally reappeared, he had lost his memory and was being cared for by a fisherwoman named Lin Qingqing. Viewing Yun Wei as a threat, Gu Jin discarded her, bankrupted her family, and drove the original host to suicide. Yun Wei, a being who feeds on love to sustain her existence, accepts this new world to satisfy her hunger.
Observing the cold, rational Shen Huaichuan, CEO of the Shen Group and Gu Jin’s closest friend, Yun Wei identifies him as a superior source of emotional sustenance. Unlike the amnesiac Gu Jin, Shen Huaichuan possesses deep, hidden emotional reserves. Yun Wei decides to hunt him, shedding the original host’s obsessive persona and adopting a fragile, dependent demeanor. She thanks Shen Huaichuan for his concern, tears welling in her eyes, and asks him to stay with her. Her performance captivates him, stirring feelings of sympathy and a faint, unfamiliar tenderness that Yun Wei feeds upon. Upon returning to the Yun villa, she immediately orders the removal of all items related to Gu Jin, signaling a complete break from her past.
When her parents return from abroad, Yun Wei calmly agrees to let go of Gu Jin, shocking them into believing she is traumatized. She manipulates their concern by feigning fear of her own madness, securing their trust and a black card with unlimited spending power. Meanwhile, Shen Huaichuan struggles with his growing attraction to her. He attempts to distance himself, viewing his feelings as a betrayal of his friendship with Gu Jin, but finds himself unable to resist her. When Yun Wei invites him to dinner, he cancels his afternoon meetings and arrives early, captivated by her transformed beauty. During their date, she feigns a twisted ankle, allowing him to carry her, deepening his protective instincts. Their encounter is witnessed by Jiang Che, a playboy friend who recognizes the romantic tension between them and keeps the secret.
The relationship accelerates rapidly. Yun Wei visits Shen Huaichuan at his office, bringing him homemade lunch and posting a photo from his desk, which sends shockwaves through their social circle. Shen Huaichuan’s employees notice his drastic change in demeanor, from a cold workaholic to a man distracted by love. He gifts her a pink diamond ring, and although he hesitates to confess due to his loyalty to Gu Jin, Yun Wei provokes him into declaring his desire for marriage rather than just a boyfriend. Their first passionate kiss confirms their engagement. Yun Wei’s hunger is fully satisfied by Shen Huaichuan’s intense love, and she posts a photo of her ring, cementing their public union. As the story progresses, Yun Wei continues to nurture Shen Huaichuan’s affection, ensuring her sustenance while navigating the complex dynamics of Haicheng’s elite society.
