She was an ugly duckling, overlooked for years. Then an unexpected trip to Xi'an and a sudden earthquake changed the course of her life. A pair of exquisite glass slippers and a perpetually gentle man helped her create a Cinderella story of her own.
She tries to unravel years of nightmares with an ancient jade bracelet from a tomb, but only sinks into deeper confusion. A devoted lover from a past life and a prodigal who has returned to her in this life: how should she choose? Betrayed and deceived by the older girl she grew up with, scarred by the earthquake, and confronted with family bonds gone sour, who can give her the support she needs to carry on with courage?
