He is a young general who bears his blood feud in silence, enduring years of humiliation as he seeks to clear his parents’ names. She is the pampered, carefree legitimate daughter of the Chancellor, but for various reasons, she is drawn into the whirlpool of political conflict.
The few days they spent together as children were the only warmth in his desolate life. When they meet again years later, she is still just as he remembers her, but he has become a different person. He tries to push her out of danger, yet each unexpected turn brings them closer. Only then does he realize she has long been caught up in the scheme, and all he can do is protect her with everything he has.
She is his weakness, but she is also his armor.
When the past resurfaces and its false mask is torn away,
they will face it together.

“In this life, I ask for little. Just you.”
“Song Jingchuan, go and do whatever you want. I will always be your way back.”
