On Zhou Congxian’s wedding day, his concubine and daughter perished in a mysterious fire.
Staring at the smoldering ruins, he broke down in unprecedented, heart-wrenching sobs.
A thousand miles away in Yuzhou, a beautiful merchant from the capital arrived with a child.
Years later, when he was stationed in Yuzhou by imperial decree,
the figures that haunted his dreams suddenly appeared before him.
There she stood beside another man, radiating charming smiles.
His daughter rested in another’s arms, calling out “Daddy”.
With bloodshot eyes, he demanded, “Why have you been hiding from me?”
She responded with a distant, indifferent smile, “You’ve mistaken me for someone else, sir.”
