Gardenia That Never Fades

In the dark night when the family and country are broken, a tragic song composed of blood and fire. In 1927, teacher Liang Hongru died on the street because of his bad character, and his wife Shen Yulan was buried in the river after being wronged. A pair of children were thrown into troubled times. After ten years of divergent journeys, his brother Liang Xiaofeng sharpened his skills in the mud of the dock, while his sister Shen Wan transformed into a "white peony" on the dance floor and walked on the tip of the knife. One of them desires to gain a foothold in the business world and protect the one he loves; the other shoulders a secret mission and pursues light in the darkness. When the brother and sister meet again at a banquet, what awaits them is not a reunion, but a conflict and rupture of faith. The shocking conspiracy of the hypocritical hero, the moth flying into the flames of the infatuated daughter, the heroic sacrifice of close relatives and comrades... Personal love and hatred were eventually swallowed up by the artillery fire and blood of Nanjing City. This is a path of bloodshed from family tragedy to national disaster, from personal revenge to the awakening of national faith. They proved at the cost of their lives: Although the night is dark, a single spark can start a prairie fire.
