In the depth of winter, desperate Xia Waner signed a death contract to save her three-year-old son Bao'er, who was seriously ill, and became a nanny in the powerful and vicious Prince Regent's palace. She was born with a naturally charming body and a graceful figure. She only wanted to work steadily in exchange for medical expenses, but little did she know that once she stepped into a cage, it would be difficult to escape.
Regent Xie Yuan was poisonous, paranoid and crazy. When he first met Xia Wan'er, he was attracted by her fragrant bones and appearance. Not only did he abandon the nanny's agreement, but he also forcibly imprisoned her in Hanyuan Pavilion and monopolized everything about her. He used her to relieve the pain of bone-eroding cold and tortured her with extreme possessiveness and ruthless methods. He didn't allow her to read his son, and he didn't allow her to resist. He threatened Baoer's life to force her to submit.
The concubine in the mansion was framed by jealousy, and while Xie Yuan was protecting her, he was furious and hurtful because of her alienation and longing for her. The torture of love and hate made Xia Wan'er miserable. She worried about her son day and night and tried her best to escape from the palace, but she was met with Xie Yuan's overwhelming anger. At this time, she learned the sad news that Baoer had died of illness.
The only thought collapsed, and Xia Wan'er became disheartened. She only had eternal hatred for Xie Yuan and decided to leave this prison. Xie Yuan was devastated by the loss of his love, and was riddled with cold poison. He was left with endless regret and suffering for the rest of his life. This sadomasochistic love affair in the name of love ended in a tragedy of broken bones, heartbroken, and eternal hatred.
