The most talented woman in the capital × a border guard general. The talented Su Wanqing is born with an "empathic" physique. She can strongly perceive the remaining emotions and memory fragments of its owner through contact with objects, and is especially sensitive to negative emotions. Therefore, she lives in seclusion and has a lonely temperament. An imperial edict granted her marriage to Xiao Che, the "god of murder" general she had never met. After getting married, she discovered that everything in the general's mansion was strange: the servants were extremely afraid of the general, entry into the study was absolutely prohibited, and there was always a lingering smell of blood and a sense of disobedience on the general's body. By touching the items in the house, all she sensed was fear, violence and a vague "twin" memory.

Xiao Che's feelings for Su Wanqing are equally contradictory, he wants to get closer but also deliberately distances himself. Their relationship grows with difficulty amid suspicion, temptation, protection and redemption.
