At twenty-two, Lin Wanxing is as pure and delicate as a star. Struggling to survive in the bustling city, she does everything she can to save her seriously ill mother. A carefully plotted scheme and a drink spiked with drugs send her plunging into an abyss of fate. She stumbles into a forbidden zone no one dares approach and discovers the secrets of the most mysterious man at the top of the social pyramid.
In public, Li Chenyuan is a proud, aloof CEO who controls a vast business empire. Behind the scenes, he is a ruthless ruler of the vast underworld. By day, he's an abstinent gentleman; by night, he transforms into a demon with insatiable desires. The innocence and purity Lin Wanxing brings into his world unexpectedly awaken his possessive obsession.
A ruthless “hundred-day contract” is thrown before her: every night at midnight, she must offer herself to him, letting him do as he pleases, then slip away before dawn. Under the sunlight, even if they meet, they must act like strangers.
From then on, Lin Wanxing's life is split in two. By day, she is a frail daughter who scrambles to pay her mother's medical bills and forces herself to smile. By night, she is a caged bird in the villa at Qiyue Bay, enduring Li Chenyuan's endless fury and desire.
In this extreme relationship, born of coercion and rife with conflict and pain, she is the intruder he hates most, yet she also becomes the only spark to illuminate the lonely abyss of his frozen heart. As the contract nears its end, as true feelings quietly take hold amid their nightly entanglements, and as the shadows of the past converge with the dangers of the present... how will this deadly game of ruthless possession end?
Can he keep the frightened bird who is determined to fly away? And how will she face the demon who has taken up residence in her heart?
