Shi Mo thought she could hide from Pei Xu for the rest of her life. But when the man showed up at the company's annual gala, Shi Mo was reminded of what had happened five years ago. Five years earlier, Pei Xu had broken someone's leg so that his childhood sweetheart could get the lead role in a dance production. To keep her by his side, he had done all manner of despicable things. These people clung to her like demons, each one wanting to devour her whole. When they met again, Pei Xu pinned her against the wall and kissed her lips frantically. His eyes were filled with the madness and obsession of having found what he'd lost.
