In a turbulent feudal dynasty, Ye Wanying, who had enjoyed a carefree life in peaceful times, finds her fate swept away like a fallen leaf in a gale, suddenly trapped in the cage meticulously crafted by Chao Cian.
Chao Cian, a marquis who holds immense power in a land torn by war, is ambitious and intent on conquering the realm. He is ruthless and decisive, stopping at nothing to achieve his goals. In the eyes of others, winning the marquis's "favor" is a stroke of incredible good fortune for Ye Wanying. But only she knows the bitterness and pain it brings. In this age of male dominance, women are as lowly as ants, and the chains of feudal propriety are quietly eroding her will.
But Ye Wanying is no one to meekly accept her lot. Every time she fights to escape, she openly defies Chao Cian's authority. To him, this is an unforgivable betrayal, and only a fate worse than death can appease his fury.
In the freezing snow, Ye Wanying runs barefoot across the thick snow, an unrestrained smile blooming on her face as she defiantly fights against fate. Chao Cian pursues her like a rabid wolf and suddenly yanks her to the ground. But Ye Wanying shows no fear. Smiling, she slowly gets up and moves close to him. The instant she draws near, the hairpin hidden in her sleeve flashes out like lightning and plunges into his body. "Stay by your side and barely survive, or leave you and face certain death. Then let's die, together! You bastard!" Her furious roar echoes through the silent snowy night.
And this is only the beginning. Ye Wanying never stops resisting. Time and again, she struggles in desperate circumstances, trying to break free of her invisible shackles.
