After her father ran off, leaving behind a mountain of debt, Su Ke had no choice but to take her younger brother and go on the run.
Even working several jobs day and night, she could never repay debts that weren’t hers.
She gave up hope, no longer believing in fairy-tale platitudes like “everything will get better.”
As she walked step by step toward the sea, a large hand grabbed her from behind.
“Got you!”
He pulled her back from the abyss...
At first, Fang Jingchuan was just indulging a wicked whim. He wanted to toy with her as if she were the woman who had toyed with his feelings back then.
Later, Fang Jingchuan gripped her pretty face, his eyes full of menace. “Don’t bring that woman up again! I told you, you’re nothing like her!”
Later still, Fang Jingchuan treasured her like a priceless jewel, guarding her like a dog with its food and fearing someone would steal her away.
In the end, his older brother, who had been insanely jealous of him since childhood, was in for a good look at the woman his little brother loved so desperately.
How could this be?
How could his little brother look so happy?
Fang Haitai made up his mind. He would steal her away from his little brother, just as he had stolen his brother’s first love back then.
Watching his brother become dejected, sorrowful, and miserable, he finally smiled again for the first time in ages.
