Twenty-year-old Bai Wanle was tricked into studying abroad in M Country by her “boyfriend.”
They said the air there was sweet, and that the moon in the West was rounder than the one in the East.
Only when she got off the plane did she realize the person waiting for her wasn't there to pick her up. Instead, her boyfriend had handed over a contract selling her into servitude.
The boss of an underworld gang gave her as a gift to Qi Shang, the undisputed king of the West Coast.
She thought she could see the light once she crawled out of hell, only to crash headlong into another invisible web.
The first thing Qi Shang said to her was, “You don't even deserve to have me lay a hand on you.”
He was both her creditor and her cage.
She had no say over any part of her own body.
After every punishment, she had to smile and say:
“Thank you... This is my reward!”
She tried to escape, but failed.
Qi Shang held out his large hand in front of her nose. “Smell that? Even if you had the Cloud-Somersault, you couldn't escape my grasp.”
“Bai Wanle, I've gotten so attached to you that I can't let you go.”
Only then did she realize...
It wasn't him who had her trapped.
She was the one who had trapped him.
