Under the spotlight, Shen Mengyao is the dazzling star on the SNH48 stage. The cheers of fans and the glory of the stage surround her, but she also hides the pressure that no one knows and the scars of the past.
The fire that burned down the cabin three years ago not only took away the time she spent with Su Wan, but also carved a trace of "exploitation" in her heart - was Su Wan, who always protected her in the dark, but mysteriously disappeared after the fire, redemption or the embodiment of conspiracy?
Su Wan, in her previous life, was a top killer who walked on the tip of a knife, codenamed "Night Owl". Indifference and calculation were her instincts, but she only took off her disguise towards Shen Mengyao.
Three years ago, in order to protect Shen Mengyao from being hunted by the organization, she faked her death and hid, and returned with unhealed injuries and deep feelings that she dared not express. She knew how to fight, understand medicine, and was good at disguise, but she didn't know how to calm the doubt in Shen Mengyao's eyes.
The reunion was an unexpected collision. Su Wan used the cynical "cheesy" as a protective look, clearing obstacles for Shen Mengyao in the dark time and time again - blocking the paparazzi, breaking up the conspiracy, and protecting everyone; while Shen Mengyao struggled with wariness and wavering, the warmth of the past and the alienation of the present were repeatedly pulled, and the truth of the fire was like a fog, lying between the two.
When the shadows of the past once again shrouded the world, and the killer organization's pursuit and the entertainment industry's overt and covert attacks followed one after another, Su Wan had to show her edge, and Shen Mengyao finally got a glimpse of the scars under her cold mask. Misunderstandings are resolved in fighting side by side, and love grows wildly on the edge of life and death.
It turns out that the brilliance of stars requires the protection of shadows; and the destination of shadows is the stars.
