Xie Jingsui was Lin'an City's notorious spoiled young master: a wastrel with a terrible reputation.
When he was twelve, a delicate little stepsister came to live with the family. She was the daughter of the new wife his father had married.
The girl smiled at everyone she met and was impossible not to pity. The only person who disliked her was Xie Jingsui.
From then on, besides teasing cats and dogs, Xie Jingsui found himself another amusement: making Shen Qing cry.
That all changed when disaster struck the Xie family and their fortune was seized. Xie Jingsui was thrown out of his home and went from an arrogant young master to a penniless nobody everyone could bully.
He drowned himself in drink every night and let his life fall apart.
Whether he was drunk out of his mind or beaten black and blue, it was always Shen Qing, the little girl he used to look down on, who carried him home.
From then on, whether Xie Jingsui was riding high or had hit rock bottom, it was always the frail little Shen Qing who supported him and helped him claw his way out of the abyss, one step at a time.
Later, Xie Jingsui gritted his teeth and got back on his feet. With Shen Qing on his back, he took one step at a time and carved out a path for them through a harsh world in ruins.
