When Gu Nian, the real daughter, was brought home, she was a country orphan girl who was considered by everyone to be "unworthy of publicity" - timid, taciturn, and unskilled in using knives and forks. She became the perfect background for the fake daughter Gu Siyu, and was regarded as a dispensable existence by the head of the Gu family.
No one knows that under this "clumsy" skin is hidden the "Ghost", a core member of the international mysterious organization "The Hive". She is proficient in disguise and information warfare. She returns to the wealthy family not to fight for inheritance rights, but to find out the truth about her father (a branch of the Gu family) "died in a car accident" ten years ago - that accident is actually closely related to the conspiracy of the Gu family leader to sell state secrets.
Intelligence dealer Lu Zhiyan was the first person to see through her disguise. He and "Ghost" were old rivals who were both enemies and friends, but when he got close to Gu Nian, he was strongly attracted by the calmness behind her "cowardly" mask. He tested and made things difficult, but discovered in each confrontation: her cruelty was for protection, her disguise was for revenge, and their parents died in the same conspiracy.
When Gu Nian's "ghost" identity is almost exposed, when the fake daughter Gu Siyu discovers that she is just a pawn controlled by the family, and when the ultimate conspiracy of the Gu family father comes to light, three people who each have their own secrets are forced to form an alliance.
She used her identity as a "country orphan girl" to paralyze her enemies, and used the sharp blade of her "ghost" to tear open the fig leaf of a wealthy family; he used intelligence as bait and pressed forward step by step but couldn't help but shield her from the knife; she went from being hostile to being side by side, using her identity as a chess piece to fight back.
