Su Wan is a speck of dust in Xinggang City. Her adoptive parents treat her coldly, and she scrapes by through sheer grit and odd jobs.
Gu Shiyu is the cold, domineering head of the Huanyu financial empire, high above the world. No one knows that deep in his heart, he has cherished a glimmer of light from a rainy night ten years ago: a little girl who shared her food with him and stopped his bleeding.
Fate takes an unexpected turn. When Su Wan is subjected to cruel humiliation over a “mistake” in a luxurious private room on the top floor of the Borui Hotel, Gu Shiyu, seated at the head of the table, recognizes those clear, resolute eyes! His obsession of ten years erupts in an instant.
Ignoring the shocked onlookers, he sweeps her up in his arms as she freezes in terror. “I found you. What belongs to me is back where it belongs.” His icy declaration becomes a shackle, imprisoning her in the gilded cage called Xinglan Residence.
Su Wan’s world collapses. She doesn’t understand the obsession of this godlike man, fears his control, and is bewildered by his words, “What belongs to me is back where it belongs.” She has long forgotten that childhood encounter! Her adoptive parents hear about it and greedily demand money, while her jealous, twisted younger sister, Lin Weiwei, launches one attack after another.
Gu Shiyu knows nothing of tenderness. He only knows how to “protect” her with his power. He eliminates every threat around her and treasures the token of the “kindness” she has forgotten. When he publicly declares his claim over her and thrusts her into the eye of a storm watched by the whole world, the Lin family joins forces with outside enemies, hoping to drag her into the abyss.
When a long-buried “kindness” collides with the reality of “captivity,” can she see the clumsy devotion beneath his cold mask?
