When he was fourteen years old, Zhao Xiaodeng's mother chopped his stepfather in half with a knife, ending the secret abuse between mother and daughter, and Zhao Xiaodeng became a wild child without a father or a mother.
She thought, I was saving this shitty life to harm others, so why not talk less and make more money, and wait for my mother to be released from prison and take her to live a good life.
When she was fifteen years old, she officially became the man's assistant, spy, shadow, or handyman. She would accept anyone who could make money.
When she was seventeen, she was stripped naked and hung on the door lintel for three days and three nights. The man rescued her, patted her on the back and said, don't be afraid, I am here, and we will get married when you grow up.
Later, when she turned 20, the man called her back with an overseas phone call. She thought that a rosy future would be waiting for her, but she did not expect that what awaited her would be dark imprisonment.
Come cheerfully, leave viciously.
On the last day of his twenty-fourth year, when he imitated his mother and pierced his heart with a knife, Zhao Xiaodeng realized that the ten years of entanglement was just a training plan that the man had casually arranged. All his tenderness was to make her willingly make a prison and burn herself until only loess was left to illuminate his bright future.
Then she died and came back to life again. This time she thought, since I have lived and died once, the life I am living now is for nothing, good or bad, and I want to live the life that an ordinary girl should have.
But the man came after her again, and he held her hand tightly and said, no matter life or death, human or ashes, little lamp or knife, you are mine.
In the end, she was still tied to a rope with him, but this time, she was the one holding the rope.
