Sheyuan is where they first meet, and where their love begins.
When she was thirteen, everyone told her that her parents had been swept away by a flood. She couldn't bring herself to believe it. Her parents had been so kind, always helping the poor. Suspicious of what she'd been told, she asked her Uncle Xiao, a police officer, to look for clues. She followed those leads, determined to clear her parents' names.
The path to finding evidence was full of obstacles.
When the people who had framed her parents learned that she was investigating, they destroyed the last photograph her parents had left behind in this world.
She knew it was a warning, but she still didn't give up. Using her skill at drawing, she recreated the faces of her parents from memory. That drawing would become a great help in her search for the truth.
As for him, when he was fifteen, his mother was framed and killed by his father and his father's illegitimate son. The trauma of it devastated his childhood, leaving him with severe psychological problems. His illness only gave his father and half-brother an excuse to seize power, profit from it, and torment him without cause.
In the midst of those agonizing days, he slowly grew up and began to develop his own strength.
At twenty-one, he founded his own company and began dismantling the power held by his father and half-brother, making them experience the pain his mother had suffered.
At Yuyuan, they find each other amid their scars, heal one another, fall in love, and become the only light in each other's lives.
Of course, they'll have disagreements, but they'll talk them through and resolve them.
And as they discover new sides of each other, they'll take the time to understand those sides, too.
