One-sentence summary: Wife-master, listen to my explanation!
Li Ruantang, a young lady from a prestigious family, stumbled and fell. When she woke up, she saw a noble and beautiful young man sitting by her bedside, wiping away tears.
The young master had slightly reddened eyes, and his every move exuded charm.
The sight made Li Ruantang’s eyes hot and her heart flutter. After all, she had made a bet with the young master Meng from the neighboring family. If she couldn’t marry a husband before the end of the year, she would have to admit defeat and give up the jade she had worked so hard to obtain.
Outside the window, the flowers were in full bloom.
Rather than losing the bet, the jade, and her face, Li Ruantang calculated that it would be better to seek marriage with the young master in front of her, killing three birds with one stone.
…
Meng Jun never thought that an accident during a spring outing would lead to them rolling down a cliff and into a river, yet still survive.
Now they were trapped in an unknown village, and Meng Jun had overheard that the family who had rescued them had their own intentions.
After all, it was Li Ruantang who had lost her mind and sought marriage first. He was only trying to protect himself!
Glancing at Li Ruantang, who was listing her own merits, the young husband’s voice softened, and he blushed as he lied, “W-wife-master, Wife-master, don’t you remember me?”
The young husband’s voice was clear and handsome, coaxing Li Ruantang’s heart to be soft and sweet, and she spared no effort to protect him.
It wasn’t until they returned to the capital that Li Ruantang suddenly remembered.
When they had fallen off the cliff, in order not to implicate Wei Yunruo, whom he secretly admired, the young husband had instead pulled her, who was slightly farther away, down the cliff with him…
Short summary by Yuushi L: Initially, the male lead (ML) liked another girl, while the female lead (FL) liked the ML. Both fell off a cliff. The FL temporarily lost her memory, and the ML, fearing others might take advantage of him, claimed FL was his wife while they were staying in a village. Later, when they returned home, the FL regained her memories and remembered that the ML liked someone else, so she kept her distance from him. However, during their time living together in the countryside, the ML’s view of the FL had completely changed. From this point, his pursuit of the FL begins.

From the very beginning when Meng Jun and Li Ruantang fall off the cliff together, although he initially pulls her down to avoid implicating the girl he admires, Wei Yunruo, as they go through life and death situations, his heart can’t help but be moved by Li Ruantang’s selfless care and protection of him. When he overhears that the family who rescued them has ulterior motives towards him, in a moment of quick-witted self-preservation, he claims to be Li Ruantang’s husband.
As they navigate village life while letting Li Ruantang’s injuries heal, the walls around Meng Jun’s heart slowly melt under her tender care.
When Li Ruantang suddenly loses her memory of him after pushing herself too hard to save a villager. Meng Jun’s world shatters. He clings to her sleeve, tears streaming down his face as he pleads with her to remember him. The light in his eyes dims and his voice cracks with despair. Yet despite his devastation, he doesn’t blame her, only blaming himself for not taking better care of her.
When they return to the capital and Meng Jun is told Li Ruantang has died in battle. He completely breaks down sobbing, feeling like he can’t breathe, like his heart has been mercilessly crushed. He becomes a shell of himself, a husk of a man lying motionless in bed, his spirit shattered beyond repair. Only the slim hope that he can still marry into her household and mourn her properly as her widower gives him the will to live.
Yet miraculously, she returns to him, though disguised and scarred. In a poignant moment, when Meng Jun recognizes her through the veil, he gently traces her scars with trembling fingers, pouring all his love into the whispered words “I’m not afraid.” Tears of relief replace tears of sorrow. His uncontainable smile could rival the sun as he relishes holding her again, peppering her with affectionate gestures and bashfully flirting in a way he never dared to before, lest she disappear once more.
