Song Yan, the heiress of a wealthy family, sees her family go bankrupt while her father flees abroad. She is imprisoned and humiliated by Ye Chuchen, her family's creditor. It all stems from a grudge dating back ten years, when Song Yan's father forced Jiang Lan, Ye Chuchen's beloved first love, into selling herself to repay a debt. Unable to endure the humiliation, Jiang Lan took her own life. Ten years later, Ye Chuchen has risen to power. He engineers the Song family's bankruptcy and inflicts upon Song Yan ten times the suffering Jiang Lan endured. Yet, against all expectations, he gradually falls in love with Song Yan.
