Gu Yunting, the young master of the Night Gate, is a ruthless emperor who is frightened by both black and white. For fourteen years, he has built a business and underworld kingdom that no one can shake. He only has extreme control and twisted obsession with his sister Lin Luoxi.
The coldness of the dungeon, the roar of the tiger, and the blood of innocent people were all the "lessons" he gave her. She was imprisoned at the age of seven for holding a boy's hand, and banned at the age of thirteen because of her senior's gentleness. She thought that Xie Liangwen's overtures were redemption, but it was just an even more embarrassing scam, and it was her most feared brother who tore apart this scam with her own hands and sent the evildoers to hell.
He built a wall with indifference and established his power with cruelty, but when she was in a high fever and comatose, he would hold her in his arms and lick the blood from her lips; he would not allow anyone to approach her, nor would she escape. Even if she just handed her a glass of milk, someone would have to pay for it with a broken hand.
In Lin Luoxi's world, warmth is an illusion and fear is the norm. Her mother's death fourteen years ago was a nightmare that she dared not touch, and Gu Yunting's existence was a disaster that she could not escape, soaked in blood and tears. She hated his coldness and was afraid of his cruelty, but she fell into a deeper struggle with the gentleness he occasionally revealed without knowing it.
This imprisonment in the name of love, and the entanglement with abuse as the background, was ultimately the most brutal confrontation between his desire for control and her desire to survive.
