The seeds have been sown, and amid the hatred, betrayal, deception, unrequited desire, and inability to let go, everyone is both a player and a pawn. Yixiao and Suige can only work closely together in the storm to overcome the dark conspiracy, break the shackles of fate, live up to the people expectations, and not let each other down.
