Lin Wanru concealed her martial arts skills and married Zhou Huai'an. However, when the Zhou family was humiliated by the Liang family, she stepped forward and saved them all. Lin Wanru believed she had saved the Zhou family and that they should be grateful. To her shock, the Zhou family claimed that no woman of the Zhou family could practice martial arts or appear in public. They enforced family punishment and crippled Lin Wanru's martial arts, divorcing her in the process. On the day Lin Wanru was kicked out of the Zhou family, they shamelessly used her dowry to marry Tang Jianing. Devastated, Lin Wanru only wanted to reclaim the bracelet her mother left her, but Tang Jianing shattered it. Filled with rage and betrayal, Lin Wanru decided to abandon her former self and practice the heartless path, determined to make the Zhou family regret their actions.
