In 2016, Jiang Hengru came across the ocean after learning that the Sui Dynasty Lotus Sutra Variations from Dunhuang, China, would be auctioned in the UK. However, on the eve of the auction, he was suddenly told that the painting had been sold at a high price. Jiang Hengru continued to follow the news, and thus met the young entrepreneur Ding Yue.
He and Ding Yue met, fell out, and finally became good friends. They experienced the ups and downs of the shopping mall and the changes in people's hearts, which led to the past incident of stealing a national treasure more than ten years ago, and the historical responsibility that Jiang Hengru's entire family needs to bear. In the end, Jiang Hengru defeated his inner demons, completed self-salvation and family redemption, and regained the true meaning of historical inheritance.
