"The Thorny Hosta: Moonlight Over the Abyss" tells the story of cultural relic restorer Shen Qinghuan and business tycoon Gu Chengyuan, who were forced to get involved in a thirty-year cultural relic smuggling mystery because of a hosta engraved with an ancient code. In the process of pursuing twelve national treasures, the two gradually uncovered the love-hate entanglement of three generations, used repair knives and astrological maps to crack transnational criminal networks, and finally found a balance between the protection of cultural relics and the redemption of human nature. The story uses Suzhou gardens and Hong Kong auction houses as its warp and weft, weaving a magnificent picture that combines cultural relic appraisal, suspense decryption and forbidden love.
