On Leng Zhi’s eighteenth birthday, her stepmother tried to force her on an old man she had always called Uncle.
By a twist of fate, she stumbled into the private room where he was.
Like a drenched rabbit, she cried out to him for help, clinging to him like a lifeline. “Please help me…”
With a wave of his hand, the man made her his canary. He protected and pampered her, giving her whatever she wanted, but he did not love her.
When he finally came to his senses, the canary had flown out of the cage he had built. He offered her everything he had, just to beg for Leng Zhi’s affection.
That untouchable man eventually shed his armor for her, becoming as gentle as spring waters.
