Sang Yi was brought into the Shen family at the age of eight, and had long come to rely on Shen Yu as her "uncle." At eighteen, her biological father claimed her, and she endured a year in a cold, unwelcoming family before Shen Yu rescued her when she was drugged at a bar and brought her back to the Shen household.
Sang Yi returned stronger for having been broken, while Shen Yu's desire to protect her had long since changed into something else. The wheels of fate turned quietly: he watched over her through her nightmares, shielded her from harassment by her birth family, and hid a tenderness in his gaze that crossed the line. She, too, gradually realized that her "uncle's" concern had gone beyond familial affection. When the label of "uncle and niece" collided with their surging love, the two began to explore whether they could face their true feelings, despite their struggles.
