Yun Shitang was top of her class, while Shen Yuxin was in the bottom ten.
Everyone said they belonged to different worlds.
But after a poor showing on a standardized exam, her parents' disappointment, her teacher's criticism, and her classmates' whispers sent Yun Shitang tumbling from the clouds into the mud. Shen Yuxin reached out to her and said, "I'll help you back up."
At the most forbidden age, the two embarked on the most passionate romance imaginable.
She thought he was her salvation, her light.
But she was wrong.
It was only much later that she learned the truth: her first love, the boy who had once handed her a tissue, was the very demon who had pushed her into the abyss.
Later, she climbed back from the bottom all by herself and reached the summit, becoming the person she had always wanted to be. She gradually forgot him, but kept an eye on him in secret, waiting for a chance to take revenge.
Later, Shen Yuxin ran into one setback after another at work. He found an equally accomplished woman and tried to use his old tricks again, but with Yun Shitang's help, the woman quickly saw through his scheme.
When they met again, she said, "I know everything about what happened back then. All the hardships you've suffered over the years are your just deserts."
Theme: When you're in a difficult place, you don't necessarily need someone else to pull you out of the abyss. You can become your own light and illuminate the darkness ahead.
