Forest of Secrets

Lian Jiahai (played by Yu Hewei) accidentally loses an eye when Lu Xinkai (played by Han Geng) strikes him, causing him to miss his date and lose his love, Wang Xiuyi (played by Gao Yuanyuan). Yet this accident ironically secures a lifetime of happiness for his daughter, Lian Jie (played by Zhang Tian'ai), at the cost of his own sight. Years later, Lian Jiahai reunites with Wang Xiuyi, and their old flame reignites, only to be embroiled in a murder case. The truth, concealed by a collective cover-up, is intricately linked to the mysterious and dangerous Wang Xiuyi, entangling the fates of two families and three generations in decades of life-and-death struggles, love, hate, and obsession... Who killed whom? And who must pay with their life? How will the love between Lian Jiahai and Wang Xiuyi, always just a step away from fulfillment, ever find its resolution? This film is adapted from the novel of the same name by Zheng Zhi.
