A man in his thirties was standing in front of she-devil's grave, under everyone's watchful eyes, he dropped the flower to her coffin, his tone was full of ridicule. "Congrats on your death." Next year he came, "I won. You lost to me and I will live well. Just rot in there." Next year he came again, "I have a pretty girlfriend and I will marry next year. My life is good. Nothing to worry about." Next year he came once more, "I will stop visiting and forget you! My life is better without you! See, I live well!" But he came again the next year and the years after that. People said he was hunted by his so-called arch-enemy. That even after death, the devil did not even let him go. He stood in front of her grave. His once handsome face had turned old and wrinkly.

Raelvar, the Shadow Phoenix, was born into a revered lineage of warriors who ruled the skies with vast celestial armies. Destined for greatness yet haunted by an inner emptiness, he longed for something beyond conquest. Aelthara, the Goddess of the Wild and eternal guardian of nature, embodied everything Raelvar was not—mysterious, untamed, and deeply attuned to primal magic. At a celestial gathering, Raelvar was instantly captivated by her ethereal beauty and commanding presence. While others fawned over him, she regarded him as just another warrior-prince, blinded by pride and destruction. Obsessed with her defiance and raw spirit, Raelvar’s initial admiration soon transformed into an all-consuming desire. He attempted to win her favor with grand gestures—summoning storms, crafting golden clouds, and offering powerful relics. Yet Aelthara remained indifferent, uninterested in treasures or power, and steadfast in her belief in love and harmony. Her rejection only deepened his fixation until his admiration warped into possessiveness; he began to monitor her every move, seeking to control whom she met and where she went. However, Aelthara’s heart had already chosen another: Elyon, the Silver Serpent. Their bond, transcending time and steeped in destiny, offered her the balance of wisdom and strength she cherished—a stark contrast to Raelvar’s aggressive nature. Confronted with the truth that her love lay elsewhere, Raelvar’s obsession twisted into fury. He could not fathom Aelthara choosing a being he deemed lesser, and the very thought drove him to madness. Elyon was no mere rival but a thief, in his eyes, who had stolen what was rightfully his. Blinded by rage and possessiveness, Raelvar betrayed all he once stood for. In the sacred Church where Aelthara and Elyon had vowed their eternal love, he struck with merciless precision, ending Elyon’s life. This act shattered Aelthara’s heart, and in her grief and fury, she cursed him. Condemned to an endless cycle of reincarnation, Raelvar was doomed to wander through lifetimes in torment, forever searching for a love he could never reclaim. Thus, Raelvar’s once-brilliant love—now corrupted by obsession and power—became his greatest downfall. What began as admiration for Aelthara’s untamed spirit ended in betrayal and ruin. For when love is possessed and forced, it loses its purity and becomes a path to devastation.

As the bond of marriage weakens under the relentless daily emergency calls, a sudden catastrophe pushes them to the brink of decision. In the moment between life and death, their love and promises are put to the ultimate test.

Secretly Captivated was a somewhat annoyingly low-profile Internet CV (Character Voice). In all of his life, he had only dubbed in two radio dramas, yet he stably sat on his throne of the number one CV in the Internet dubbing circle. He was romantic, gorgeous, charming, and touching. When he spoke, you would think that he was looking at you with a somewhat smiling expression in his eyes that made you hold your breath. Would you fall in love with a person because of his voice, regardless of his appearance, age, or family background? Would you fall in love with this person without the slightest hesitation solely because of his voice? If you asked Mo Lan questions like these, she would definitely say she would while nodding her head without the slightest hesitation. Mo Lan believed that the first time she met Gu Yemi was on the high-speed railway that was driving towards Hangzhou when she had kindly reminded him that the railway train already reached the station. However, the first time Gu Yemi met her was actually very late at night in a train on Line 2 of the Nanjing Subway. Afterward, the Internet dubber CV Secretly Captivated who had already mysteriously hidden away for three years announced that he would begin acting in new projects and became active in the Internet dubbing circle again. And after that, he announced that henceforth, he would withdraw from the circle again. Actually, the fact that Gu Yemi only briefly retired in order to find that girl who made a smiling expression from the corners of her eyes to the tips of her eyebrows when talking about him was probably not even known by Mo Lan. Afterward, he told her that in the second half of his life, he only wanted to be captivated by her. With these sincere words, he offered to give me his only and eternal life in the Internet dubbing circle.
