share time: 2025-10-11 06:01:21

Shen Tang infiltrates the wealthy Gu family as a contractual wife to investigate her sister's disappearance, marrying Gu Jingshen, the reputedly 'cold-hearted' heir. While feigning docility to gather clues, she discovers Gu Jingshen—who seems to control everything—is also trapped in the 'cage' of family power: his mother's death is a mystery, and his father distrusts him. As they shift from mutually testing 'opponents' to each other's only 'escapees' from the cage, a photo of the 15-year-old Gu Jingshen appears in her sister's diary. In the fog of truth, who is the real mastermind behind the scheme?
