Missing Tong Yuwan is an eternal pain in Zhou Tingchen's heart. However, even on the day of her wedding, he still shows up to give her a dowry, showing his deep and unwavering love. Tong Yuwan said an unintentional word, and he could throw away the lit cigarette and take care of every little detail of her. In times of danger, he always shows up in time to protect her from harm. His promise was to love Tong Yuwan only for the rest of his life, and he kept his promise and never married.
Zhou Tingchen and Tong Yuwan, the love between the two is full of helplessness and bitterness. They love each other deeply, but they can't stay together for a long time, so they can only bury that unforgettable love deep in their hearts. To miss is to miss a lifetime.
Tong Yuwan, the daughter of the Manchu imperial family, was kidnapped by bandits when she was a child and fell into the hands of Zhou Mingchang, a smoker who manipulated children to beg. She refused to succumb to Zhou Mingchang's obscenity and was severely beaten. Fortunately, Zhou Tingchen, the son of Zhou Mingchang, saved her, and in order to rescue Tong Yuwan, he even did not hesitate to cut off his own finger. However, Tong Yuwan's father, Tong Jiahongshi, suspected that Zhou Tingchen had a relationship with the kidnappers, and not only did not appreciate his life-saving grace, but also insulted him with money. The young Zhou Tingchen was not only injured by a broken finger, but also suffered great humiliation.
After Zhou Mingchang's subordinate Fugen pretended to be the young master of the Li family, Li Guangde came to seek revenge after learning of his son's experience. Zhou Mingchang fled the scene in order to save his life, but left his wife behind. When Zhou Tingchen returned home, he only found his mother, who had been beaten to death. His mother's tragic death made him hateful, and Zhou Mingchang's lies made him misunderstand Tong Yuwan's family. This hatred took root and grew in Zhou Tingchen's heart.
Ten years later, Tong Jiahongshi became the vice president of the Shanghai Tang Chinese Chamber of Commerce. At this time, Zhou Tingchen made meritorious contributions when the Japanese assassinated General Shen Zhipei and stayed with the general. He used the Tong family's deed as collateral on the grounds that the Tong family owed military salaries, and forced Tong Jiahongshi to hand over military salaries. Once again, their destinies are intertwined, but they are full of endless entanglements and strife.
With the assistance of Du Ruida, president of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce, Tong Jiahongshi was able to turn the danger into a disaster. However, Zhou Tingchen did not return the deed of the Tong family after receiving the military salary, but asked Tong Yuwan to pick it up in person. Because Zhou Tingchen hated Tong Yuwan and took this opportunity to humiliate and torture her, Tong Yuwan, who was born in a famous family, felt pain. Although she was tortured by Zhou Tingchen and almost collapsed, she never gave in.
As a result, Chow Tingchen made a bet with Tong Yuwan that if she could successfully recover the rent of the three most difficult shops on Jing Street, he would return the deed to the Tong family. Although Tong Yuwan is a woman, she is quite business-minded. At first, she ran into walls because she didn't understand the situation, but with her wisdom and kind nature, she helped the merchants keep their shops during the typhoon and skillfully used the business opportunities during the typhoon to recover the rent. This made Zhou Tingchen look at her with admiration.
Over time, the emotions between the two gradually change subtly. Du Ruida took a fancy to Tong Yuwan's business talent and intended to make her his daughter-in-law. However, Du Yuntang fell in love with Qingping, a beautiful girl in Mrs. Jin's salon, at first sight, which complicated the marriage. Zhou Tingchen recommended Tong Jiahongshi to Du Yuntang.
By chance, Tong Yuwan found that Zhou Tingchen was on a murder mission. Despite the fear, the relationship between the two warms up in the crisis. However, when Chow Tingchen learned that his father, Zhou Mingchang, was behind the opium business in Shanghai, he chose to disown him. However, Zhou Mingchang threatened him with the fact that Zhou Tingchen was infected with opium in his mother's womb.
At this time, Mrs. Jin planned to send Qingping to Zhou Mingchang, but Qingping escaped halfway and was rescued by Tong Yuwan and placed in Wanju. However, Zhou Mingchang still found Qingping's hiding place, and Tong Yuwan's Wanju was burned down. Although Qingping was rescued by Du Yuntang, for the sake of her beloved, she chose to die with Zhou Mingchang. In front of Tong Yuwan, Qingping took the initiative to appear. From that moment on, Qingping became Zhou Mingchang's plaything. At Tong Yuwan's request, Zhou Tingchen persuaded his father to let Qingping go, but the father and son had a big quarrel over this matter.
Later, Zhou Mingchang misunderstood that Qingping had an affair with Zhou Tingchen, and killed Qingping in a fit of rage, and knocked Tong Yuwan, who came to Qingping, unconscious, and stuffed a pistol into her hand, causing Tong Yuwan to be charged with murder and imprisoned. In order to protect Tong Yuwan, Zhou Tingchen personally sent her to prison. However, life in prison was extremely difficult for Tong Yuwan, not only did she have to live in the same cell with prostitutes and thieves, but she also often went without food, and was almost killed by the prison guards instructed by Zhou Mingchang.
In the face of difficulties, Zhou Tingchen always tried to rescue Tong Yuwan, which made Tong Yuwan, who was in prison and almost desperate, rekindled her desire to survive. At that moment, she finally discovered that Zhou Tingchen was the big brother who cut off his finger to save herself. This sudden discovery made the relationship between the two heat up rapidly, and even made each other's hearts in prison.
At the trial, Tong Yuwan calmly responded to the defense, and was finally acquitted for lack of motive to kill. Subsequently, Zhou Tingchen took her to her mother's grave and revealed to her the truth that her mother was not harmed by the Tong family, and the misunderstanding between the two for many years was resolved, and they fell deeply in love with each other.
However, it wasn't easy for them to be together. On Tong Yuwan's birthday, Zhou Tingchen gave a valuable gift, but her mother beat her daughter severely because of the insult caused by her daughter's association with Zhou Tingchen. And Tong Jiahongshi directly rejected Zhou Tingchen's proposal on the grounds that he was not the same. In order to be together, Tong Yuwan chose a hunger strike**, and Zhou Tingchen tied himself up and forcibly detoxified for Tong Yuwan. For each other, they fight against fate.
Sadly, no one wants to fulfill them. When he learned that Tong Yuwan had damaged her body in order to fight with her family, Zhou Tingchen decided to take her to elope. He thought he had successfully quit drugs, but Zhou Mingchang had already sent someone to secretly put drugs in his diet, so that he was still addicted to drugs. On the day of elopement, Tong Yuwan arrived at the agreed place on time, but Zhou Tingchen, who was addicted to drugs, could only watch her but could not show up. Later, Tong Yuwan was taken to Zhou Tingchen's home.
In the pain of drug addiction, Zhou Tingchen was unwilling to let Tong Yuwan see his most vulnerable side, and brutally drove her away. Tong Yuwan mistakenly thought that Zhou Tingchen had abandoned her, and her heart was like a knife. The Tong family fell into a financial crisis, and in order to make up for the huge deficit, Tong Yuwan agreed to the marriage with the Du family after breaking her heart. Du Yuntang has always had Qingping in his heart, and he has a deep hatred and suspicion for Tong Yuwan. And in Tong Yuwan's heart, there is only Zhou Tingchen.
On the day of the wedding, Zhou Tingchen appeared in front of Tong Yuwan and tried to take her away. However, for the sake of his family and clan, Tong Yuwan rejected him. Zhou Tingchen fired a gun to see Tong Yuwan off, and she burst into tears. That night, Zhou Tingchen missed Tong Yuwan, and he missed it for the rest of his life. From the moment Tong Yuwan decided to marry the Du family, her fate was firmly bound.
In the Du family, Tong Yuwan faced her husband's indifference and humiliation, and her concubine's jealousy and framing. Despite the hardships of life, she has always been resilient. She quietly opened a gallery and started a business. When Du Yuntang found out, he praised her business acumen. Although he was still sneering at Tong Yuwan on the surface, he began to help her inadvertently. Time passed, and Du Yuntang gradually realized that Tong Yuwan was subtly changing him, and he slowly had a place for Tong Yuwan in his heart.
When Zhou Tingchen was in danger, Tong Yuwan ignored Du Yuntang's opposition and resolutely went to save him. Du Yuntang said that she should not come back, but secretly followed to protect her. Zhou Tingchen finally revealed the truth about the day of elopement and begged Tong Yuwan to give him another chance. However, Tong Yuwan painfully refused, and she had become Du Yuntang's wife.
Tong Yuwan took the risk of sending Zhou Tingchen to the suburbs and gave him the heirloom jade screen. Zhou Tingchen loves Tong Yuwan deeply, and he doesn't want to force her. He is willing to respect all her decisions, as long as she is happy. He chose to silently guard her from afar, without expecting anything in return. Du Yuntang and Tong Yuwan's relationship is getting deeper and deeper, but the tricks of fate have made them encounter a huge test. A red feather that looks exactly like Qingping appears, and she is a tool to be manipulated to drive a wedge between them.
Originally, Du Yuntang wanted to use red feathers to stimulate Tong Yuwan and let her express her feelings for herself. However, things were out of his control. Red Feather's mind is deep and vicious, she was born in the market and makes a living by cheating on marriage. After meeting Du Yuntang, she became greedy and tried to replace Tong Yuwan. She constantly creates misunderstandings and stirs up trouble, making the relationship between the husband and wife more and more strained.
Tong Yuwan experienced blows such as her father's business failure and her mother's suicide, and broke with Du Yuntang due to a misunderstanding. Worst of all, she found out that she was pregnant with Du Yuntang's child. Hongyu was jealous, targeted Tong Yuwan everywhere, and even forced her to drink abortion pills. Fortunately, Du Yuntang appeared in time to save their child.
In order to enter the board of directors of the Du family, Tong Yuwan reluctantly agreed to Du Yun Tangna Hongyu as a concubine. She is disillusioned with love and just wants to achieve her ideals. Although Du Yuntang knew Tong Yuwan's intentions, he angrily married Hong Yu into the door in a misunderstanding.
Red Feather's addition causes the Du family to fall into chaos, and Du Yuntang is injured and falls into the Huangpu River. Hongyu even tried to burn Tong Yuwan to death, but fortunately Zhou Tingchen saved her. Tong Yuwan was in pain because of the loss of Du Yuntang and named her son Sitang, but she refused to leave with Zhou Tingchen and chose to return to her parents' home.
But her father had been deceived by Red Feather and kicked her out of the house. Tong Yuwan watched her son die in her arms, unable to do anything. In the midst of great grief, she almost lost the courage to live. After going through some hardships, Tong Yuwan gradually regained her fighting spirit. In order to avenge her husband and son, she decided to go incognito and use her business acumen to start over in Shanghai. With her keen business acumen and ingenuity, she worked her way up to becoming a successful businesswoman.
After Du Yuntang was rescued by Mrs. Jin, he was in a coma for a long time before he woke up. When he wanted to find Tong Yuwan, he was told that she was already with Zhou Tingchen. Although he was unwilling, he also understood that he could no longer disturb Tong Yuwan's life, so he chose to stay with Mrs. Jin and serve as her financial advisor.
However, Mrs. Jin was defeated step by step by Tong Yuwan and finally defeated. Tong Yuwan successfully regained everything the Du family had lost and returned to the Du family. At this time, the situation in Shanghai was chaotic, General Shen Zhipei was killed, and the army fell into the hands of the enemy. Red Feather still wanted to kill Tong Yuwan relentlessly, and even did not hesitate to light the bomb. At the critical moment, Du Yuntang appeared and rescued Tong Yuwan, but he was pierced in the ear by the fragments of the bomb and lost his hearing.
Zhou Tingchen was seriously injured in order to protect Tong Yuwan, and Tong Yuwan was anxious to bandage his wounds, but ignored Du Yuntang's injuries. In order to fulfill Zhou Tingchen and Tong Yuwan, Du Yuntang chose to leave silently. He wandered to the Northeast, put aside the habits of a gentleman, and began to be self-reliant.
After Zhou Tingchen learned the news of Du Yuntang, despite his inner struggle, he told Tong Yuwan. Tong Yuwan decided to go to the Northeast to find Du Yuntang. While escorting Tong Yuwan to the boat, Zhou Tingchen was shot, but he pushed Tong Yuwan onto the boat with the pain and told her not to look back. Since then, Tong Yuwan has never seen Zhou Tingchen again.
She ended up staying in the Northeast and accompanying Du Yuntang. Although they lived in poverty, they lived a warm life. Tong Yuwan teaches and educates people, while Du Yuntang digs coal to make a living. Although she failed to realize her dream when she was young, she gained a plain, down-to-earth, and happy life.
Many years later, Tong Yuwan is already a gray-haired old man, but she can never forget those stormy years and the lover who accompanied her. Every time she thinks of Zhou Tingchen and Du Yuntang, there will always be a warm current and emotion in her heart. Those experiences have been deeply imprinted in her psyche and have become an inseparable part of her life. In the huge Tong family, she, the only female baby, was brought to the bustling Shanghai by the fate of the family. Stepping into the remodeled old mansion of the Tong family, the Du family mansion, and even the solemn general's mansion, the memories of the past came flooding back. In her heart, there is only one question: Is the man who once photographed the Tong family's old house the same Zhou Tingchen whom she loved deeply but never been together?
As the years passed, she learned from the rumors that yes, it was Zhou Tingchen who sent someone to photograph this old mansion. However, he has passed away, and the spark of life has been extinguished in the world. But he did not disappear completely, and before he died, he still arranged for someone to guard the Tong family's old house.
Zhou Tingchen's love, like a silent fortress, has never declined due to the erosion of time. He never married in his life, just for his love for Tong Yuwan. In this way, he silently told her: I love you until the end of my life.
