[Obsessive older man + scheming leads on both sides + calculating innocent flower + mutual push and pull]
After her parents divorce and her father dies, Jiang Suisui's first day living under someone else's roof finds her setting her sights on the powerful Fu Shenheng.
She disguises herself as a sweet, obedient innocent flower and carefully plots every step, hoping only to use him to rise in the world, then leave once she graduates from college.
She thinks she's a clever hunter, fooling the lofty Third Master of the Fu family with her pitiful, helpless act.
But she doesn't know Fu Shenheng is even more unhinged than she is.
He sees through her but says nothing, indulging her attempts to seduce him and playing along with her act.
In secret, however, he is like a dark, rising tide, quietly cutting off every path of escape.
Until her mother is critically ill and her senior from school accidentally overhears Fu Shenheng's icy threat: "Let her go? Only if I'm dead."
Her mother dies with regrets, and Jiang Suisui's heart turns to ashes. She plans her escape.
When her disguise finally falls apart, the usually composed Fu Shenheng has bloodshot eyes. He searches the whole city and will stop at nothing to lock the little fox who stole his heart and then abandoned him firmly by his side.
This time, she won't get away.
