Five years ago, Wen Mian was branded with the stigma of climbing into her adoptive brother's bed, a finger pointed at her spine. Everyone said she was an ingrate, unable to appreciate the new life the Pei Family had given her, and instead repaying kindness with enmity. Only she knew that this so-called favor was nothing but an unfathomably deep hell on earth. After five years of grinding hardship, Wen Mian had almost died abroad. When she came back, she was a changed woman, swearing to make every member of the Pei Family pay. She had thought this was a desperate dead-end gambit. But unexpectedly, the adoptive brother who had sent her away was like an annoying piece of gum stuck to her shoe, following her everywhere. She killed, he handed her the knife, she sought revenge, he silenced the witnesses. Finally, Wen Mian couldn't help it— "What exactly do you want?" And that man, who had bided his time for so many years, finally showed his true colors, "Can't you see? I've been doing it all for you."

But everything changes when a mysterious and darkly captivating new student, Kael, arrives in town—and he seems to know exactly what her mark means. Kael is no ordinary boy.

Or will the darkness claim them both in the end? This is a thrilling tale of love, betrayal, and the fight to rewrite destiny in the face of impossible odds.
