Jiang Yi Cheng (Xing Zhao Lin) is an incredibly talented computer programmer. But despite his talent, he is cold and aloof. This is due to the fact that he once fell in love with a woman who exploited him to get her hands on his codes – and left him licking his emotional wounds. Since then, he has been wary and untrusting.

Meanwhile, Lu Li (Zhu Xu Dan) is an intelligent female would-be programmer who admires and even adores Jiang Yi Cheng. She wants to follow in his footsteps, so studies hard and is granted admission to the same computer programming course he took at college. When she graduates, she hopes to apply for a role at his company – but is shocked to discover that the firm will not hire female programmers. Undeterred, she decides to dress up as a man and pretend she is male. This works, but keeping up the pretense turns out to be tough. But when she gets the opportunity, she manages to broker an agreement with Jiang Yi Cheng that will help him solve a problem of his own. They will become a “contract couple” and cohabit for a year. But will this unorthodox arrangement open the door for Cupid?

Oddly enough, that’s exactly what happened.

Coming across a snake purely by accident, Liu Ying saved the poor creature from harm, only to learn that it wasn’t a snake at all but rather a thousand year old dragon king by the name of Yu Chi Long Yan (Dylan Wang). Eternally grateful to Liu Ying for saving his life, Yu Chi Long Yan wishes to repay her kindness by marrying her but instead of agreeing, Liu Ying asks him to rescue Xia Hou Xue from the clutches of a wolf demon, and to protect her for three lifetimes. Unable to deny such a request, Yu Chi Long Yan agrees to do so, all the while staying quietly by Liu Ying’s side.

Now in her fourth lifetime, Liu Ying’s reincarnated spirit, Gu Qing Yan, slowly becomes aware of Yu Chi Long Yan’s existence and begins to recognize his presence in not just this life, but her past lives as well. After waiting three lifetimes to be reunited with his love, will Yu Chi Long Yan and Liu Ying finally have the chance to live happily ever after?
