When her father said, "You need to save money to buy your brother a house," Ruan Jingzhi knew she was done for. The home she'd had for over twenty years was gone.
She'd noticed her family changing over the past few years. She'd thought they might favor one child, but never imagined they'd be this biased. She was part of the family too, so why would they say something like that?
She didn't want to argue with them over it. After dinner, Ruan Jingzhi silently packed her things, ready to head south.

Ruan Jingzhi fought with everything she had to break free. The moment she managed to get back on her feet, she fell into an even deeper pit.
At the bottom lay the truth her family had kept hidden for over twenty years: Ruan Jingzhi had never belonged here. She was meant to soar through the sky.
