Su Wanqing worked hard with her bare hands for eight years, earning a fortune and supporting her family. She was kind and gentle to her down-and-out nanny Mei Guidi, and extended her hand to help her again and again, believing that kindness can always save people.
But jealousy and gambling debts distorted people's hearts. Mei Guidi lit a fire in an attempt to extort money. After the fire got out of control, she ran away alone. The fire mercilessly devoured her and her three young children.
Husband Gu Shen'an lost a loved one, and the entire network praised him as a tragic hero. He opened public welfare and ran stores in the name of his wife and children, but gradually lost himself in fame and fortune. He hid his new love, obscured public welfare accounts, and delayed his late wife's inheritance.
The nanny who set fire to the house was eventually sentenced to death, leaving the young daughter to bear the stigma and struggle to grow up; the grieving father-in-law kept his daughter's hard-earned money and set up a scholarship to continue her tenderness.
A fire destroyed perfection and exposed layers of disguise. If gentleness has no armor, it will be burned in the fire; if the human heart cannot withstand glitz, it will let down all the deep feelings and the dead.
