Xu Ning was kind by nature. From childhood, her irresponsible parents treated her as a burden. Because she was beautiful, she endured three years of bullying in middle school, and gradually became sensitive and insecure. But she never gave up on herself. Determined to escape her family and the shadows of her past, she buried herself in her studies, making the most of her exceptional talent until she finally got into a prestigious high school with dormitories.
Then she came across Ji Siheng, whose reputation at school was terrible, being beaten up by a group of people. Her old trauma made her want to run on instinct, but in the end, her kindness won out over her fear, and she stepped in front of Ji Siheng. That encounter allowed Ji Siheng, who had spent years living under surveillance and on guard, trusting no one, to see the brilliance and warmth beneath Xu Ning's timid exterior.
Ji Siheng took the initiative to get close to her, asked Xu Ning to become her family, and gave her all her affection. With Ji Siheng by her side, Xu Ning slowly opened her heart, learned how to get along with others, and discovered the wider world. They became more than friends or lovers: they became irreplaceable family to each other. Xu Ning also discovered that Ji Siheng's past was shrouded in mystery, and that she was consumed by an obsession with revenge. Xu Ning was powerless to change her course, and could only stay by her side in silence.
To protect Xu Ning, Ji Siheng revealed the strength she had kept hidden. Later, she carefully staged a car accident and pretended to be helpless and useless in order to advance her revenge. Hoping to preserve the peace Ji Siheng had once known, Xu Ning used her striking looks to get a role in a film crew, where she met the resilient and gentle Li Ran. The two fell deeply in love, but their vastly different family backgrounds made every step difficult. It leaves you wondering: can love really overcome every obstacle?
