The female lead has mild Asperger's. She is rather indifferent and only cares about those close to her. Her golden finger is her knowledge of chemistry and medicine, along with her practical skills.

A guarded man who hides his feelings × an indifferent woman who speaks her mind

Among all walks of life, through hardship and upheaval.

She is stubborn, yet does as she pleases. She will do whatever it takes, by any means necessary, to see every decision through. She has fought back, and sometimes succeeded, but at other times she can choose to give up.

After bringing her revenge to an end, she walks into a dark alley.

A sharp blade presses against her slender neck. Dawn breaks, bells ring out, and a hand closes around the blade.

“What, do you still want to save her?”

“Of course I do. How can you be so cold-blooded?”

The spirited young Jiang Cheng steps in to help when he sees injustice. He goes to comfort the child being beaten and kicked, and sees her face.

Xue Shiqi's voice comes from behind her. “Thank you.”

It was the first time anyone had said they would save her.

As she floats helplessly in the water, she is utterly exhausted. Gazing at the darkening sky, she suddenly thinks, “Maybe it would be fine to die here.”

The familiar bells ring out, and strong arms suddenly drag her to the surface.

The young man keeps his promise. For the first time, someone truly saves her.

Theme: One can die for justice, and one can live for justice, too.
