Fang Yi is the male protagonist, a company commander in the military. He is handsome, popular with women, and arrogantly spoiled. He loves Shen Baozhu and despises Shen Qi, whom he calls a “country bumpkin.” To please his dying grandfather, he agrees to marry Shen Qi but plans to divorce her afterward, only obtaining the certificate without a wedding. He openly belittles Shen Qi and uses her feelings for him. In the previous life, he forced Shen Qi to take the blame for Shen Baozhu’s crime, leading to Shen Qi’s imprisonment. He shows no real affection for anyone but himself and acts as the primary source of Shen Qi’s suffering.
