It has been three months since Zhang Xiao woke up from a coma and she can't forget about the Fourth Prince. One day, at the museum, she meets a man identical to him; he is Yin Zheng, the stepson of Zhentian Corporation's chairman. To find out his connection with the Fourth Prince, Zhang Xiao becomes a designer at Zhentian. Shortly after, however, an accident occurs and she loses her memories as Ruoxi. She starts to date a kind man named Kang Sihan, Yin Zheng's stepbrother; meanwhile, the latter dates Lan Lan, a model identical to Zhang Xiao who hides a mysterious past. Helped by his uncle, Yin Zheng wants to avenge the death of his biological father by ruining Kang Zhentian.
