Seventeen-year-old Yu Yan is breathtakingly beautiful, like a pale water lily blooming in a dark swamp. Her fate of being adopted seemed bright, but in fact, her adoptive mother's sharp words and traces of canes day after day, and her adoptive father's suffocating touch when he sneaked in late at night had already corroded her world into a lonely wasteland. The only light came from her nominal brother Jiang Jinyan - the young man who regarded her as pure white jasmine and always treated her with tenderness. But he would never know that there was an unspeakable shadow hidden behind the door he knocked on.
In the long darkness, Yu Yan's heart gradually transformed into a calm and sharp blade. She made the top student Gao Chi surrender willingly and use his wisdom to help her move forward; she even turned Jiang Jinyan's sincere love into a thin thread in her hand, and her inseparable touch and ambiguous whispers made him sink into a web that he could not escape from. On the eve of her eighteenth year, she approached the powerful Feng Shaoting and completely buried the past with a well-designed "accident". It was drizzling at the funeral, and she quietly unfolded the darkness in her adoptive father's diary before Jiang Jinyan's eyes. In his broken eyes, her smile was like mist.
