In the Qing Dynasty era, Yunan, trapped in a loveless, arranged marriage, finds herself drawn to Lucas, a man who challenges her ideas of the restrictive social norms of the day. In a wealthy and judgmental family, Yunan is forced to battle against the rules and standards of the day in search of true love.

In honor of his birthday, San Francisco banker Nicholas Van Orton, a financial genius and a cold-hearted loner, receives an unusual present from his younger brother, Conrad: a gift certificate to play a unique kind of game. In nary a nanosecond, Nicholas finds himself consumed by a dangerous set of ever-changing rules, unable to distinguish where the charade ends and reality begins.
