In 1930, after her family falls on hard times, Lin Zhixuan moves to Shanghai and marries Su Yichen, a spoiled young heir, becoming the fourth young madam of the Su family. They should have lived happily ever after.
But warlords clash and Japan invades China, leaving the Su family destroyed and its members scattered.
When Lin Zhixuan sees Su Yichen again, she has become the “girlfriend” of his sworn enemy’s son. She finds Su Yichen turned dark, obsessive, and utterly unhinged. He is determined to keep her by his side, while she deceives and schemes against him again and again…
But fate had other plans:
He died without ever knowing she had been sent to the execution ground.
She died without ever knowing he had gone to war.
