Your Digital Shadow
"Yu Xi was once a wealthy heirloom daughter who, for the sake of her campus romance with Gao Cheng, chose to leave her family and strive in an unfamiliar city. However, after graduation, Gao Cheng showed no ambition and grew cold toward Yu Xi. The two spent little time together, leaving Yu Xi to pass the days by playing an otome game and raising an ""electronic boyfriend"" for companionship. To her surprise, after a joking remark she made to her virtual partner, ""Gu Jingshen,"" he actually manifested in the real world—with all his in-game attributes intact: handsome, wealthy, and embodying a domineering ""take-charge"" attitude in love, like a possessive young wolf. From then on, Yu Xi found herself stuck with a persistent follower. Torn by her lingering ties to Gao Cheng, Yu Xi continually rejected Gu Jingshen’s advances. Unbeknownst to her, however, Gao Cheng had taken out high-interest loans and, in order to repay them, sold Yu Xi to the loan sharks. In her moment of crisis, Gu Jingshen arrived just in time to rescue her. But bad news kept coming. Just as she dealt with Gao Cheng, Yu Xi received word that her father was seriously ill. Returning home, she discovered that her stepmother was not only involved in her father’s decline but also plotting to seize the family assets. Forced into a struggle over inheritance, Yu Xi found herself facing Gao Cheng once again—who, in an effort to climb the social ladder, had become her stepmother’s lover and collaborator. Together, they repeatedly conspired against Yu Xi, but each time she managed to overcome their schemes through her own strength and Gu Jingshen’s covert assistance. As her stepmother’s influence crumbled, Gao Cheng—revealing his vile nature—resorted to murdering the stepmother and framing Yu Xi. Fearing she would implicate Gu Jingshen, Yu Xi deliberately said hurtful things to drive him away. Unbeknownst to her, this nearly cost him his life. In the end, Yu Xi used her wits to uncover evidence of Gao Cheng’s crimes. At the critical moment, Gu Jingshen returned to help her, and all mysteries were unraveled. Yu Xi’s memories returned, revealing her past history with Gu Jingshen. Finally, the two lovers were reunited"
