In China in the early 1920s, warlords were in power and the people were in dire straits. Qi Chenhui took refuge with her mother and came to the turbulent city of Xucheng to study and live. Unexpectedly, she provoked the arrogant Hong Luxuan on the train and was teased by him repeatedly. In the face of crisis, Chen Hui moved into the Hong family by mistake, and became entangled with Lu Xuan's brother Hong Luheng who always appeared in front of her like a ghost, and began a life-and-death love affair.
Not only that, in Xucheng, Chen Hui also met her close confidant Yan Yifan, her loyal old servant Lao Xin, Qing He who was willing to sacrifice for her, Wei Jun who was hot and cold to her, her mentors and close friends Feng Zhizhen and Yang Chongyun, and of course her love rival who repeatedly caused her to fail and self-destruct. In the end, she also solved the mystery left to her by her father.
Chen Hui gained love and friendship along the way in the ups and downs of Xucheng, and had several brushes with death. The prosperity disappeared. In that place where the water and the sky meet, only dreams and true love will last forever!
