A cuckoo is weeping in the opera house in Shanghai. On the stage, the famous actress Shen Wangjuan has sad eyes. Below the stage, among the dignitaries, sits Lu Cangheng, the mixed-race heir of the Lu family.
No one knows that the Juan Lang who sings on stage is actually the orphan of the Shen family who was brutally wiped out. At that time, Lu Zhenxiao, the leader of the Lu family, framed the Shen family and destroyed the whole family. Shen Yantang, who was lucky enough to survive, changed his name and surname, went to Kunban and hid in the market, and gradually approached the enemy's son as an actor.
The encounter was a carefully planned move, and the approach was just to spread the chess game of revenge. Lu Cangheng was trapped between the power of his biological father and the life of his mother. He had been a prisoner in chains for half his life. He was clearly aware of the other party's deliberate flattery, but was willing to indulge in false tenderness.
Pretense breeds sincerity, and blood feud is entangled with lingering love. Shen Wangjuan clutched the broken old jade button, lusting after a moment of tenderness, while refusing to let go of the dead souls in the family; Lu Cangheng held the pocket watch left by his mother, and was in a dilemma between the sins of his biological father and the person he loved.
In the end, the net was closed on the stage, the enemy fell into the trap, and Lu Cangheng blocked the gun with his body and died on the day of the vendetta.
The great revenge was avenged, and the chess game came to an end. Shen Wangjuan stayed behind in the empty theater, missing her loved one for five years, and finally died of coughing up blood with her old chess piece.
There are no regrets when you fall in love, and there is no return when you miss love.
Intention: Meeting is a move, falling in love is a dilemma, revenge is closing the chess, and death is the end of the game.
