The gifted writer Zuo Nanzhi wrote a single book, South City, which secured her a comfortable life. After inheriting a fortune, she was even given the reputation of being untouchable. Aloof and eccentric, she was a proud flower no one dared to pluck.
Jiang Du is the most sought-after returnee in her field, praised by everyone as almost too perfect. Her wealth is merely the least remarkable thing about her.
No one knew they would meet again in an ordinary apartment building. Jiang Du rubbed the back of her foot against Zuo Nanzhi's calf and made her an offer:
"Hire me as your assistant. I'll help you find inspiration."
"I don't think Professor Jiang could give me any inspiration."
The beauty smiled at that. "But aren't all your novels about me, Zhizhi?"

At sixteen, Jiang Du changed her name to Zuo Jingxu and became Zuo Nanzhi's sister in name only.
Beautiful and outstanding, every praise was well deserved.
After entering the Zuo family, she was kind to everyone in the world, but looked at Zuo Nanzhi with nothing but disgust.
Zuo Nanzhi simply watched in silence and wrote Jiang Du into her diary, from her immaculate bedroom to her impeccable clothes. Though she hated Jiang Du, Zuo Nanzhi watched her with absolute focus, recording every detail about her.
Until she saw Jiang Du being confessed to, and saw how intimate the two of them were together. At last, Zuo Nanzhi cornered Jiang Du, her gaze obsessive:
"Someone's already touched your collarbone. What about your lips? Why is there a red mark on your neck? Has she kissed you already?"
"But, Sister, these places, and you, should belong to me alone."
