As pure and radiant as a lotus, with a beauty that brightens the age. Yet even that cannot endure the cold, desolate north wind without her by her side.
A chance encounter ripples across a still heart. Divine grace and proud spirit, sorrow across lifetimes, and splendor that has fallen into ruin beyond counting.
Gong Chu Wei, a beloved daughter of heaven, proud and soaring above the clouds. With beauty that could topple a city, she should have been unshakable, standing at the very top. But memories of her youth became an obsession that haunted her all her life. Few could move her. She traded coldness for deep affection, and without realizing it, that peerlessly bewitching woman warmed her heart.
Jiang Huan Ran, cursed by fate and difficult to read. She knew she was being manipulated, yet could not defy it. As the tides of fate turned, she witnessed the world's many hardships. Bewitched by desire, she gave the only person in the world she trusted her complete and unconditional faith.
Qi Xige, the pride of the Qi Yun clan. One conspiracy destroyed her innocence and kindness. Wounded by love, she grew cold because of it. She could neither bear to hate nor bring herself to love. Where could she go amid all this turmoil? The one love of my life, the one that cut deepest, ended without a word, so quietly it was as if it had never existed.
Gong Jingsheng never imagined that the light in her life was a falsehood fabricated by someone closest to her. On the brink of a struggle, what will she choose?
There is no sorrow like parting from the living, no joy like finding someone new.
The two Gong sisters each find a love that defies convention with one of two extraordinary women.
