You Tore Apart Nine Years of Love, and Still Want to Leave Me with Nowhere to Turn?

At his girlfriend's insistence, Xu Yuan agreed to visit his future father-in-law's home to ask for her hand in marriage.

The conversation started off well. His future father-in-law, who owned a chain of more than a hundred restaurants, didn't look down on him for being a young man fresh out of the New Oriental Culinary Institute.

Nor did he mind that Xu Yuan had just paid a down payment on a house and still owed a million on the mortgage.

His future father-in-law had already agreed to let the couple register their marriage. But the moment Xu Yuan mentioned his late mother's name, the man's expression changed.

He mocked Xu Yuan and made cutting remarks about his deceased parents, forcibly separating the couple, who had been fond of each other since middle school.

Unable to change the outcome, Xu Yuan could only focus on building his career.

Unexpectedly, Xia Zhentao interfered, using his connections to get the restaurant that had offered Xu Yuan a high-paying job to fire him.

Unable to keep up with the mortgage, Xu Yuan had his home seized by the bank.

Xia Zhentao: "I'll make that Xu brat completely desperate!"

All of this happened because Xu Yuan's late mother had rejected his future father-in-law, who had held a grudge and sought revenge.

Unable to stand by while her father and younger sister bullied Xu Yuan like this, Xia Minmin took the initiative to find him.

"I've had a crush on you for nine years. My dad was wrong, and I'll help you take him on!"
