Synopsis

Fate made us family, but our hearts strayed beyond the bounds of blood ties.

Su Xiao, a 20-year-old art student, gained an unrelated older brother, Gu Yechen, after her mother remarried the chairman of the Gu Group. Eight years her senior, he was strict and cold, a powerful force in the business world and, in her eyes, an intruder who didn’t belong.

A confrontation sparked by her fainting, and a coldly worded Personal Growth Guardianship Agreement, bound their fates together. He would provide resources and protection; she would surrender her freedom and obey. Strict discipline, rules that could not be broken, clear punishments for every mistake... He built a wall around her, determined to keep her on the path he considered right.

Su Xiao once thought it was simply a transaction in which each of them got what they wanted. Then she discovered he had quietly taken on her biological family’s enormous debts, shielded her from the overt and covert attacks of business rivals, and kept her safe beneath his wings all along, without her knowledge.

Beneath all those cold rules lay a burning, unspoken devotion.

As the boundaries of guardianship began to blur and dependence quietly turned into affection, the bonds of their blended family clashed fiercely with the feelings growing between them. Meanwhile, a covetous business rival saw Su Xiao as the perfect weakness with which to destroy Gu Yechen.

This is a story of growth, healing, and forbidden love.

On an island built of rules, they are each other’s only star and night.
