Treated as a stand-in for his frail older brother, Ling Mu suffers one humiliation after another in the wealthy family's mansion. Everyone sees him as a docile, fragile canary, unaware that he is also the anonymous financial trader “M” who moves markets behind the scenes.
When the real first love returns, Ling Mu drops his disguise, only to be recognized by an even more powerful wealthy family and named the sole heir of a business tycoon who is his sworn enemy. He returns with the bearing of a king, vowing to make those who once looked down on him crawl at his feet.
But on the path of revenge, the real “first love,” Gu Qingxian, a man who resembles him and whom he once considered an enemy, reaches out to him. As lies and truth intertwine, will they go from bitter rivals to saving each other, or drag one another into an even deeper abyss?
