Sixteen years ago, the Shen family was wiped out, and thirty-seven members of the family perished in the flames.
Seven-year-old Shen Yao was replaced by the nanny, renamed Yuan Xi, and became the adopted daughter of the Yuan family.
Sixteen years later, the Yuan family was in decline and they pushed her out to fulfill their engagement - to marry the eldest son of the Lu family who had been in a vegetative state for sixteen years.
Lu Jingshen, the son of the most prestigious family in the capital, was a guest in the Shen family when he was twelve years old. He hid in the closet and witnessed the whole process of the family's destruction. Three days later, an "accident" occurred and he became a vegetative state.
He lay in darkness for sixteen years.
She lived in humiliation for sixteen years.
The Lu family is a deep house, with seven in and seven out. The eldest lady is hypocritical, the second lady is vicious, and the second young master is domineering in power.
She knelt down to say hello every day. She was burned, humiliated, and deprived, but she swallowed them all without changing her expression.
She's checking. Find out the truth behind the Shen family's destruction, find out the deep-buried secrets of the Lu family, and find out who the boy hiding in the closet is.
Until that night, the moonlight filtered in, and his eyelashes trembled slightly.
"The count of one thousand is up."
"I'm counting."
——This is a story about waiting and revenge.
Two people who grew up in ashes kept each other's secrets and waited for the day when the truth would be revealed.
