    This is an ancient legend. If you blow out a candle in front of a mirror, the mirror will reveal what your future lover looks like. Just as the girl was about to blow out the candle, a figure suddenly flashed across the mirror. Lisa thought she had just seen things. She picked up an oil lamp, then carefully walked onto the balcony to take a look, only to find a man hiding in the corner. The boy was instantly terrified. He quickly jumped off the balcony, then fled with his companion. But his handsome face was already deeply engraved in the girl's heart. Unlike Lisa, who lived in a castle, Mort was just a poor young man living under a bridge. Every day he traveled across the frozen canals, making a living by delivering packages with his incredible skating skills. One day, he received an urgent delivery order. The customer demanded it within 20 minutes. But on the way a noble procession happened to pass by. All the roads were temporarily blocked. The package failed to arrive on time, so he was thrown out of the place. That night, he happened to notice the emblem on the carriage that had blocked the roads earlier. He could no longer suppress his anger toward the injustice in society, so he secretly climbed onto a second-floor balcony, planning to graffiti the noble's emblem. That was when the opening scene happened. As the daughter of a duke, Lisa was naturally beautiful. She was gentle and elegant, but she had no control over her own life. Her father was extremely strict with her. Lisa however longed for freedom. She was passionate about science. She wanted to escape the restraints of old traditions and study in France. But every time she brought it up, her father would fly into a rage, to make Lisa give up on studying abroad Her father even found her a suitable military officer planning to introduce them at the skating ball next month Coincidentally after Mort lost his job he and his companions became ice thieves but they never stole from poor people That day among the things they had stolen he and his friend found two invitations to a skating ball, open only to nobles. They figured that if they could sneak inside, they would surely find something much more valuable. So that very night, after disguising themselves, they successfully sneaked into the ball. When the lights went out, and everyone's attention was focused on the center of the stage, Mort and his companions also made their move. Within just a few minutes, they had already made a huge haul. After the performance, the Duke walked straight over to Lisa and asked her to dance. Although Lisa was very unwilling, she still smiled and politely accepted. During their very first interaction, the Duke already began showering her with affection. I talk to you for the first time in your life. I don't know you. Just then, someone came to report. A guest had lost some belongings at the ball. The Duke left her and walked away, leaving Lisa all alone. She nervously struggled to keep her balance on the ice. She was just about to fall. Thank you. Please. You are? Luckily, a man caught Lisa just in time, and that man was Mort, the same man she had only met once that night, yet could never get out of her mind. and sparks quietly flew the moment the two locked eyes. But when a tightly controlled noble heiress meets a handsome thief who steals from the rich to help the poor, will this encounter brought on by a vision in the mirror be a match made in heaven, or a twist of fate?
