In the midsummer of September in Jiangcheng, during the project interview of the School of Economics and Management, Xu Wan, the iceberg academic god, chose Xia Ziqi, a poor student with a lonely family but dazzling talent.
A subject recruitment entangled two completely different lives to death. Arguments in the library, coats at the bus stop on a rainy day, confessions on the rooftop, from working side by side in campus research groups to winning gold medals in entrepreneurship competitions, boys and girls develop hot and sincere love between rumors and family status.
After graduation, the two entered the treacherous adult world. Xia Ziqi unexpectedly reveals her life experience and turns out to be the youngest son of a wealthy family who has been separated for more than 20 years. Xu Wan takes charge of the family business. The two think they can finally break away from worldly prejudices and pursue a future that belongs to each other.
But the intrigues in the shopping mall, the vicious schemes of opponents, and the jealousy and conspiracy between brothers are sweeping in like a turbulent undercurrent. A car accident on a winding mountain road on a rainy night shattered all the beautiful promises about engagement, beach house, and years and years.
The lover suddenly fell, and the sweetness of the past turned into bitter hatred. Xu Wan put away all her tenderness, used her body as a chess player, and embarked on a tragic and decisive road of revenge in the flashy and hypocritical vanity fair.
Love is so hot that it burns to ashes. We are separated in life and we are together in death.
They had seen the bright lights of the world side by side, but in the end they could not survive the sinister human heart. The passionate love burned into ashes all over the sky, leaving only an unforgettable past that echoed in Jiangcheng.
