She is both the forbidden desire and the instinct.
Li Yanzhi is the most detached and ascetic man at the top of Yunjing, known as the cold-faced Buddha of the capital's elite circle. He despises women, is cold-hearted, and seems untouched by joy or sorrow.
Then one day, by some strange twist of fate, he appeared at the airport and met her. With one glance, he fell completely, and the world came back to life.
For her, he broke his vows and gave himself over to passion, cherishing her above all else and experiencing a vibrancy unlike anything he had ever known.
Yet fate loves to grind in the opposite direction, crushing his vows, reason, principles, and the destiny chart he thought he controlled...
Only at the very end did he realize that the craving engraved in his soul had long since consumed her, burning her to the bone.
