[GB + cold, desire-driven controller x restrained, devoted follower + both are unhinged]
On a stormy night, eight-year-old Yu Ruonan finds the bruised and battered "outsider" beneath the looming shadow of her father.
In a cramped little room, she distracts her mother to keep him from being punished, but then pours alcohol onto his frostbitten, ulcerated hands. "Does it hurt? You deserve it."
Ten years later, she is a piercing artist who moves between pain and control, carving thorny patterns into skin with silver needles. He is a glamorous but hollow rising designer, whose wounds in the darkness are the only things that feel real.
As the needle pierces a thorny design, he tilts his head back and laughs softly. "Sister, give me another shackle."
Then a yellowed diary tumbles out of an old tin box...
The "accidental" death of his father hides a sordid black-market drug deal. A bottle of poison belonging to her mother leads to a deadly scheme involving the aphrodisiac "Fire Eater." And the two of them turn out to be lives switched amid the previous generation's ruthless pursuit of love. In their rusted fate, they carve redemption into their scars.
"Either we rot together, or we carve our lies into a tombstone."
She is his abyss, and he is willing to drown in it for the rest of his life.
