Shen Yanruo, the eldest daughter of the Shen family, always felt as a child that her family didn’t like her. She read countless books and other people’s accounts, but never figured out why.
As she grew up, Yanruo gradually wrapped herself in a shell of coldness. Apart from Gu Jiayu, whom she met by chance as a child, she had few friends. At eighteen, she discovered she wasn’t the Shen family’s biological daughter and decided to enter show business so she could become independent sooner.
Meanwhile, Gu Jiayu finally understood his own feelings and asked to get engaged to Shen Yanruo. Yanruo thought it was only a business arrangement. Then Shen Qingqing, the Shen family’s younger daughter, returned from abroad, and the Shen family suggested replacing Yanruo with her. Just as Yanruo was preparing to step aside, Gu Jiayu’s hurt expression and firm insistence that there had been a misunderstanding made Yanruo recognize her own feelings.
