Qin Zheng and Mingzhu were once the enviable perfect match everyone admired. However, Qin Zheng mistakenly believed that Mingzhu had killed his younger sister Qin Wan. With witness testimony and physical evidence all pointing to Mingzhu, Qin Zheng personally sent her to prison.
Ten years later, the two crossed paths again. Filled with seething hatred for Mingzhu, Qin Zheng plotted to keep her by his side to torment her. Yet complicated romantic feelings grew between them as they spent time together. Qin Zheng’s old love for Mingzhu slowly reawakened, and he began to doubt the truth of the incident from a decade prior. He sent people to reopen the investigation into the old case.
During this time, a bitter rivalry erupted between Qin Zheng and his younger brother Qin Tianyi. Through everything, Mingzhu stood firmly by Qin Zheng’s side. When the whole truth finally came to light, Qin Zheng was consumed with remorse and begged Mingzhu to stay with him.
