The heroine is a first mate on an ocean-going cargo ship. During a storm, she transmigrates into the twelve-year-old daughter of a canal gang leader. She grows up adored by everyone, but at eighteen, she witnesses her entire family being slaughtered. After falling into the sea, she is rescued by the hero and recognizes him as her "enemy."
She conceals her identity and becomes the hero's strategist, determined to take revenge. Using his influence, she rebuilds the canal gang's logistics network, opens training classes, and establishes an intelligence network. The generous benefits draw countless people eager to join. The hero indulges her out of love, and just as their feelings begin to deepen, she plunges a sword into his chest one night.
Su Wan needs his help, yet remains spoiled and willful. "You haven't come to see me in days, and now you think you can fob me off with these things?"
"Then how would you like to punish me?" Fu Hanzhi seized the opportunity to pull her close and wrap her in his arms. He whispered softly in her ear, "I'll give you everything you want."
After Su Wan got what she wanted:
"Was there ever a moment when you loved me?"
"Never."
"It doesn't matter. I love you, and that's enough."
Theme: Face hardship without fear, and grow freely.
