"The rose I've held in the palm of my hand since childhood,
how could I let you pluck it away just like that?"
Haicheng is ruled by four great families: Li, Jiang, Li, and Shen.
The Li and Jiang families are close, their ties running deep.
Their marriage alliance is practically a given.
Li Yao is cold and reserved,
but in his heart burns a fire for Jiang Ruanuan, the Jiang family's young lady,
and a possessiveness bordering on obsession.
Ever since they were children,
he has never let Jiang Ruanuan so much as look at another man.
He thought his life would go smoothly,
that once his marriage alliance with the Jiang family was settled,
and he had gained power in the Li family,
he could spend his life with Jiang Ruanuan,
have children, and grow old together.
But life is unpredictable.
He never imagined that Jiang Ruanuan would fall for a poor actor along the way,
and the title that had long been promised to him
would be stolen away.
