Other name: 风月, Feng Yue

Description:

In a grand country estate not far from Shanghai, the affluent Pang family grapples with decadence and addiction. Old Master Pang, deeply entrenched in opium, has raised his beautiful daughter Ruyi amidst its smoke, while his older son, Zhengda, is left paralyzed and incapacitated by his own addiction. Upon the Old Master's demise, Ruyi is unexpectedly appointed as the new head of the household by the clan elders. Simultaneously, Zhongliang, Zhengda's brother-in-law and a cunning gigolo known for blackmailing older, married women in Shanghai, returns to the family estate.

A potent, secret attraction ignites between Ruyi and Zhongliang. Drawn to his worldliness and seeking sophistication, Ruyi gradually succumbs to Zhongliang's seductive attempts. This illicit affair triggers a tumultuous emotional maelstrom, further complicated by the angry and jealous presence of Zhengda's wife, who also becomes an integral part of the unfolding drama and betrayals within the once-prestigious Pang family.
