## **Season 1**

### Episode 1

Tushan Susu is a helpless Tushan Fox spirit who wants to avoid marriage to become a legendary Matchmaker. She has finally achieved her first assignment against her older sister Yaya's wishes. Bai Yuechu is on the run from the Yi Qi Dao League and is planning on sabotaging the arranged marriage they have for him in order to take control of his own fate. He enters a dating show contest in order to find a wife, when Susu falls from the rooftop on top of him.

### Episode 2

With Yaya's agents chasing her and Wang Fugui and others from the Yiqidao League chasing him, Tushan Susu and Bai Yuechu team up together to escape, the former paying him with candy to motivate him to help her. She has come to the dating show to find one of the participants who is her first matchmaking assignment. After fighting Yaya's foxes and Fugui, the two crash through the building's side and end up in a pile of sand created by the Sand Fox prince, Fan Yun Fei, to protect his reincarnated lover, Li Xue Yang, Susu's matchmaking assignment. Meanwhile, Bai Yuechu's father Bai Qiuen, makes a deal with Li Xue Yang's parents to protect her from the spirits that have been haunting her.

### Episode 3

After Fan Yunfei's secretary, Xiao Li, blames Susu for almost killing the Prince and his former lover, Bai Yuechu steps in to defend her promising to help Susu do her Matchmaking properly (though he claims it is just because she is a source of easy to get candy). Xiao Li accepts and takes the group back to a restaurant to explain the situation and Susu explains how Tushan Matchmaking works. Xiao Li explains they have been using magical Memory Mallets to try to restore Li Xue Yang's missing memories of her past life. Yuechu steps in and begins hitting them on the head making Li Xue Yang recall an early memory with the Sand Fox Prince. Bai Qiuen appears having been hired by her parents to stop the Sand Fox Prince's following her around.

### Episode 4

Qiuen steals Susu's candy and explains that Fan has no money and is broke. Thus, Yuechu refuses to help them. Yuechu chases his dad to take Susu's candy back, but falls for one of his dad's tricks and ends up getting immobilized with his own seal (Shocking awesome invincible seal of immobility that can seduce a child to commit a crime). Meanwhile Xueyang turns Xiao Li into a pile of sand as Xueyang is upset from partially remembered memories of her last life. Qiuen returns and bags up Susu and the others and then leaves to collect award money. Susu free's Yuechu, who decides to leave, but returns due to a wanted poster put out by the Yi Qi Dao League and decides to help them. Wang Fugui decides to begin courting Li Xueyang in order to get Bai Yuechu's location out of her.

### Episode 5

Bai Yuechu, Susu, Fan Yunfei and Xiao Li return to their base located in Xueyang's attic. Wang Fugui asks Xueyang out, wooing her with his money. She accepts, hoping to get away from Fan. Bai decides to help since it means getting back at Fugui. Yuechu begins hitting Xueyang back on the head with the mallets, but unfortunately only causes her to remember bad memories of her previous life when Fan Yun Fei upset her. Yuechu cannot believe they were really in love, but then Susu reminds him that only people who were actually in love would make the Pledge of Love. Yuechu begins to suspect there is something fishy happening because Xiao Li has not been using the Pledge of Love's vow vessel to restore their memories.

### Episode 6

Bai Yuechu learns about the Water Pearl fabao that Fan used to seal his eternal love with Xueyang. However, they did not use the water pearl before because it always brings a misfortune. However, when more of Xueyang's memory is restored, she is rushed to the hospital and coughs up half of the water pearl. This brings in the Beast of Misfortune, and Bai and Fan have no choice but to rescue her using the water pearl.

### Episode 7

Ridiculous misfortunes continue to plague the city and Yuechu, the Sand Fox Prince and Susu as they make their way toward the hospital that Li Xue Yang is at. Meanwhile Wang Fugui continues wooing Li Xue Yang at the hospital while misfortunes continue to plague them and she is reminded of more memories of her past life. Meanwhile the reincarnated boss the Fat Lady from Xixiyu decides to rob the hospital adding more confusion to the whole scene. Yunfei, Yuechu, and Susu arrive and fight with Wang Fugui. While Yuechu and Fugui are fighting, Yunfei and Xueyang talk, and she realizes that Fugui was never in love with her, but just using her to find and beat up Yuechu. Yun Fei becomes angry with Fugui for playing with Xueyang's heart.

### Episode 8

Fan Yunfei and Wang Fugui fight, Fugui using an array of expensive magic weapons, with Fan fighting with his sand powers. Li Xueyang interrupts the fight and another flashback occurs. In the past the Ice General had gotten accustomed to receiving a proposal each night, but on the 100th time, Fan did not show. Puzzled she left her camp to find out what had happened. She oversees Fan spending time with other women and bragging how he is only trying to marry her to ascend the throne.

### Episode 9

Fan does not recall those events, but begins apologizing to her anyways. This only makes Xueyang even angrier, and she starts venting her anger by hacking him with her ice spear that she gets back from the Fat Lady. Meanwhile, Bai observes that the Beast of Misfortune is controlling the people (including Xueyang) as puppets with spirit strings. As Xueyang cuts the building in half, Wang and others fall to the ground. Bai then asks Susu to free him.

### Episode 10

Xueyang freezes Bai Yuechu with her ice spear. Susu gets mad and throws stones at her. Xueyang is unaffected, and she expresses her rage further at Fan, who explains in the flashback that he could not find her at her village as she ran off to defeat a demon (the Flame Medusa) herself. Then Bai suddenly breaks out of the ice and unleashes his power to slash the spirit strings of the Beast of Misfortune. However, he cannot slash away the strings that control Xueyang and Fan. The beast then ties him and Susu together in rope, trapping both. He says he can protect Susu if she gives him a year's supply of candy. She agrees, and Bai begins to kiss her forehead.

### Episode 11

Bai Yuechu breaks out of the rope trap by supposedly kissing Susu, when he is actually writing a spell on her forehead. The Beast of Misfortune tries to stop this, but it is too late. The spell gives Susu fire immunity, and Bai breaks free using his Pure Flame of Yang (纯质阳炎), burning away all the ropes and casting the demon beast away. He and Susu fall to the ground, and a glimpse of older Susu is seen. Meanwhile, Fan and Xueyang are left in the burning hospital. Xueyang falls into the fire, while recounting her past when she was similarly drenched in the flame of Medusa. But Fan suddenly leaps in for her.

### Episode 12

Before she falls into the Pure Yang Flame, Fan Yunfei manages to grab Li Xue Yang and remembers how he saved her in her previous life, rescuing her from the Flame Medusa. Fan Yunfei then used his ultimate move Grand Coalescence to summon water and sand from the nearby area to put out the Pure Yang Flames. The two then made up, now that Li's memories were fully restored. Fan apologized for his failures and she embraced him kissing him, causing Susu to faint. The two halves of the Water Pearl were then reunited and the Disaster Beast fled from Bai Yuechu. It is revealed that Rongrong had poured special Deep Yin Water (九转玄阴水) into the ocean which had allowed the Prince's Grand Coalescence to actually put out the Pure Yang Flame since such a powerful move is not easily extinguished. At the end, the Beast of Misfortune is seen fleeing from the city and getting frozen by Yaya.

### Episode 13

The episode begins back in Tushan with Rongrong researching the full situation of what had actually occurred in and Fan Yunfei's previous life to upset her so much. On his journey to propose for the 100th time, the Sand Fox Prince had encountered a fire spirit Flame Medusa that had kept him away a whole extra day while he fought the spirit. Meanwhile, his dad the Sand Fox Emperor shape-shifted to look like his son Fan, planning to propose as him so that his son could at last succeed. However, the emperor begins flirting with some concubines, which pisses off Xiao Li and infuriates the emperor's wife.

So that night Li Xue Yang actually saw Fan Yunfei's dad in disguise, not Fan himself, so she was mistaken. Back to the present, the couple Fan and Li are unsure what to do about the Water Pearl. However, Bai Yuechu still wants compensation for the broken Memory Mallets Fan promised him, so Bai insisted that they go threaten the Sand Fox elders with the pearl and force them to accept Fan Yunfei's ascension to the throne. The couple Fan and Li were then married.

Rongrong then finished her research. She says that although Fan and Li do not know the truth that Fan's dad shapeshifted to look like Fan, the couple's love is sincere, and that is all that matters. Rongrong then said she would be visiting the Yiqidao League to follow up on a contract made 500 years ago concerning Bai Yuechu.
