Shanghai socialite Fu Zhitang is the most charming and beautiful rose in the world.
For the cold-faced officer Lu Chengzheng, she put away all her sharp edges, smoothed her bones, and bowed her head in love. He seemed cold and distant, but he caught all her tenderness when no one was around.
She thought that this was the most stable relationship in troubled times.
Until the flames of war came before her eyes, she saw refugees everywhere and lives devastated. She held out her sincere heart and begged him to join her in the righteousness of her family and country, but she only received a rejection that was cold to the bone——
"The military is only for power and position, and has no regard for ordinary people."
She was heartbroken and rushed to the front line. From then on, she was separated from him by a whole troubled world of misunderstanding and resentment.
Years later, the truth was revealed.
He was never a power-hungry warlord, but an underground agent who pledged his life to the country. All indifference, rejection, and opposition are the deepest protection. He handed the last piece of top-secret information into her hands, and then used the hand she had taught her to hold a gun, begging her to shoot——
"Kill me."
When she pulled the trigger, she truly understood that she was not killing her enemy, but her lover who had protected her for half her life.
The mountains and rivers are safe, and the prosperous times are peaceful. She upholds the ideals of two people and remains unmarried throughout her life.
A love in troubled times begins with beauty and ends with flames
Acacia burns into flames, and the rest of my life is devoted to the country.
