Ling Xu lived to be thirty-four years old, and her marriage was just a life-saving straw to escape the quagmire of her original life.
She witnessed domestic violence against her father and mother since she was a child. She grew up with harsh treatment and criticism, and was regarded as a troublesome burden by her family. In order to escape the endless abuse and persecution, she rushed into a blind date and was willing to marry anyone.
Lu Jinsheng is also trapped in the quagmire of fate.
Five years ago, at the end of the New Year, he took his ex-girlfriend back to his hometown, but was brutally injured and died by the village bully. That tragedy turned into a deep nightmare, trapping him in memories and never daring to touch love again. Unable to bear the ardent expectations of his frail mother, he accepted the blind date arranged by his family.
Two scarred adults agreed to get married without even taking a closer look at each other.
After the marriage, he put a written marriage agreement in front of her, and they lived in separate rooms. They did not become husband and wife, and only acted like they were loving in front of their elders. Ling Xu knew clearly that he held the deceased in his heart, but still chose to compromise. She just wanted a place to stay.
Under the same roof, there is a daily life of being polite and alienated, and it is also the gradual approach of two broken souls.
The entanglement of the original family keeps coming, and the nightmares of the past repeatedly haunt the night. They saw each other's hidden sufferings and did not force each other to forget the past. They only silently gave each other a rare understanding and belated return.
