Wen Ziyue will always remember that day - her father jumped off the building and her mother committed suicide, falling in front of her, her white dress dyed red with blood. Enemies are smiling all over the news, perjury lawyers are counting their dirty money, and unscrupulous reporters have gained hundreds of thousands of followers by live broadcasting their suicides.
She sat in front of the portraits of her parents, with hatred gnawing away all her entrails.
He showed up.
Gu Xiu, a young resentful spirit who is as handsome as an angel but as evil as a demon, feeds on human resentment.
"You support me, and I will help you kill all your enemies."
Those who raise imps will go to the eighteenth level of hell. Wen Ziyue cut her wrist without hesitation.
But she didn't know that this deal was doomed seven years ago - that year, she gave a candy to the bruised boy in the iron cage, causing him to turn into a wraith after death, wandering around the world to this day, just to wait for her to fall into despair and then "own" her.
The enemies died tragically in the secret room one by one: the perjured lawyer was buried alive by his own lies, the unscrupulous reporter was driven crazy by the live broadcast in the mirror, the playboy was suffocated in the illusion of greed... With each death, Gu Xiu's power became stronger, and his possessiveness towards Wen Ziyue became more and more pathological.
When the last enemy fell, Wen Ziyue wanted to send him away, but she heard that cold whisper:
"It's easy to raise a kid, but it's hard to give it away. Yueyue, I am no longer the kid you raised. This last secret room is reserved for you."
The sound of footsteps chases her in the nightmare, and she can never escape - this resentful spirit raised by her own hands will spend eternity weaving a cage called "love".
This is a dark fairy tale about hate and redemption, yandere and possession, cultivation and being nurtured. When you feed your nightmares with your essence and blood, the nightmares will eventually take you for themselves.
