Su Nian has paralyzed legs and is treated as a burden, yet even in the direst circumstances, she always shines with breathtaking brilliance.
At a modern school, she is the “background extra” everyone mocks at will, yet she is the first person to make an arrogant heir feel flustered. In the countryside of the 1960s, she is a frail, sickly educated youth who holds the collective back, yet she makes a coldhearted team leader willing to weather every storm for her.
In a famine-era ruined temple, she gives her only chance at survival to a sharp-tongued, down-on-his-luck young master, earning his obsessive protection in return. In a grand mansion during the Republican era, she is quiet as a shadow, yet she turns the suspicions of a military governor with command over vast forces into unwavering trust.
They are arrogant, cold, unruly, or deep and guarded. Each once believed he could control her faint glimmer of light.
Only later do they understand: the most fragile flowers often take root in the hardest stone, and her quiet tenderness has long since become a web they cannot escape, no matter how hard they struggle.
The Ice-Beauty in a Wheelchair
She is stunning, pale, and silent, shutting the entire world out, kindness included.
Everyone says the beautiful, disabled newcomer has no heart.
