In order to save his family, Gu Qingci was forced to sign a three-year engagement with Shen Jinghong. Shen Jinghong used all means to trap her by his side, eliminating all members of the opposite sex who were close to her, and even put her under house arrest on a private island. Although Lu Qingci was greedy for Shen Jinghong's beauty and enjoyed being favored, he always clearly hated her paranoia. Shen Jinghong's mother Lin Wan suddenly visited, revealing Shen Jinghong's dark history of driving his marriage partner crazy. Gu Qingci completely saw the abnormality of this relationship. She began to plan her escape, but was discovered by Shen Jinghong at the last moment. Shen Jinghong locked her in the villa and used drugs to control her consciousness: "Qingci, you can't escape, you can only be mine in this life." Gu Qingci struggled on the edge of sobriety and sinking, and finally chose to die to escape from this imprisonment. Shen Jinghong held her body and guarded it on the island for ten years.
The intention: to break the stereotype that "face control will lead to destruction" and create a clear-headed and rational beauty-control heroine; to use a double-death ending to subvert the traditional sadistic model and strengthen the impact of tragedy.
