At the top of the bustling city stands the Fang family, which controls a huge business empire. Fang Lei, the president of the Fang family, is regarded by the outside world as a ruthless and iron-blooded heir, but he is trapped in the whirlpool of family power struggles. There are undercurrents surging within the family, with uncles coveting him, brothers feuding, and even his mother, who is paralyzed in bed, has been a victim of power struggles. Fang Lei is walking on thin ice, stepping on thorns every step of the way, just to preserve the legacy left by his father and find out the truth behind his mother's death.
On an unexpected rainy night, Fang Lei's car got into trouble with Wan Kexin, an ordinary designer who was rushing to deliver a design draft. The embarrassed but stubborn Wan Kexin dared to "hijack" this seemingly low-key but imposing stranger to act as a driver in order not to delay an important design exhibition. This ridiculous encounter was like a stone dropped into Fang Lei's frozen heart. Wan Kexin's talent, tenacity and passion for life are like the glimmer of light in the darkness, attracting him on the cold throne.
However, when Fang Lei's identity was revealed, and when Wan Kexin was inadvertently involved in the bloody power struggle of the Fang family and became a pawn for his opponent to attack Fang Lei, this relationship that began by accident faced an unprecedented test. Fang Lei must make a difficult choice between protecting Wan Kexin and stabilizing the crumbling family power, and Wan Kexin must also find his own position and strength amidst the sweetness of love and the danger of the abyss of wealth. Can they work together to cut off the thorns and protect pure love and new life beside the throne of power?
