In the eyes of the world, Lu Chenzhou is a business emperor who can turn the tide with a wave of his hand. Ruthless, cold-hearted, and unapproachable, he commands a vast business empire and seems to have no weaknesses.
But no one knows that every night, his stubborn migraines shatter his self-control. Memories of his broken childhood and the image of his mother's suicide haunt his dreams, imprisoning him in an endless abyss.
Shen Yan made a name for himself at a young age. He was the brilliant surgeon everyone in the field had high hopes for, until a sudden medical accident and the loss of a patient became his demons. For three years, he stayed away from the operating room he loved, hiding in the quiet pathology department and using a cold exterior to conceal the trauma that kept him from picking up a scalpel.
A sudden panic attack shatters the walls around their separate, isolated worlds.
When they first meet, they clash. Lu Chenzhou keeps everyone at arm's length: "There's no need to pretend to be kind. I don't need anyone's pity."
Shen Yan calmly refuses in turn: "Don't talk to me about payment. I won't compromise for money, either."
They keep each other at a distance, their words full of suspicion. Yet in their darkest moments, when they can no longer hold on, they instinctively call each other.
There is no deliberate rescue, no grand gesture of devotion. Two wounded people, both mired in despair, slowly become each other's refuge.
The abyss stretches on, but fortunately they have each other to walk beside. Though battered and broken, at last they have someone to spend the rest of their lives with.
