Bai Ning, 23 years old, is the youngest soloist at the National Ballet of China. With an ordinary background and no power, in the Beijing circle where capital and power are intertwined, she is like a vine, having to find a scaffold to climb on her own. Fu Yu, twenty-five years old, is studying for a doctorate in law. She is a third-generation official, second-generation rich, and has a triple halo. Under her cynical skin, she hides the coldest, soberest and sharpest mind. He has always been frivolous, walking through thousands of flowers without a leaf touching him. At that charity dinner, she admired his resources and he admired her beauty. Everyone gets what they need and gets both money and goods. It should be the most cost-effective deal. She moved into his Xishan villa and took good care of him - the clothes needed to be convenient, the tea to taste, porridge in the morning, and lights at night. She is the gentlest interpreter of words and the most sober seductress. Fu Yu sank in the gentle countryside little by little, from being careless to worrying about gains and losses. He thought he was sincere, but he discovered through repeated trials that she always retained a sense of clarity and a retreat.
Frustrated, he broke up. Bai Ning left simply, without crying or making a fuss, and stubbornly did not look back. But the resources were cut off, and the dance troupe was full of open and covert attacks. She spun over and over alone in the cold night, and finally realized at a certain moment - it turned out that she had been attracted to her for a long time, but her pride and inferiority prevented her from admitting it. So everyone in the Beijing circle watched helplessly as the beauty, who had always been as gentle as water, began her long journey to pursue her husband. But Fu Yu, the man who should have hated her to the core, was defeated every time she clumsily approached.
