She was born to a noble station, but was sold to a brothel in Beiping. From childhood, she saw the world's ugliness and grew cold-hearted.
He was the heir to Shanghai's biggest gang and the young master of a wealthy family. Respected and adored from childhood, he was nevertheless detached by nature.
She was ten and he was thirteen when they met beneath a tree. That one turn of the head sealed their fate across a thousand lifetimes.
After ten years of waiting, they met again. In that moment, Shanghai was swept up in turmoil.
An Sheng: I have a cold, harsh heart. The clearer my mind, the more fiercely I love. I cherish this love with all my might because it is the love I spent my whole life finding.
Mu Yi: An Sheng, I love you with my marrow, my blood, and my heart. From the highest heavens to the deepest underworld, wherever you are, An Sheng, is the only place I can call home.
Liu Qianhan: Why is there never room for me in your eyes? An Sheng, I want to devour you, so that we can become one inside me.
Feng Ruolan: Why can his heart hold only you? An Sheng, I gave up everything and followed him for ten years, but he traded away those ten years of freedom for you.
Zuo Wudie: Why is fate so unfair to me? I schemed and did everything I could for him, only to end up like this.
Many years later, people would still be astonished when they spoke of the girl who arrived in this city at the age of ten and all she accomplished in Shanghai. The upheaval she stirred up wrote the most dazzling chapter in the city's history.
The countless splendors of Shanghai made An Sheng a legend. One could also say that An Sheng's charm and talent gave Shanghai a different kind of legend.
A whole new story is about to begin!
