Mysterious Artist × Hong Kong Tycoon
From the age of eighteen, Jiang Jiayu knew that what wealthy families never lacked was marriages arranged to bind their interests together. She made her position clear early on: she would never be a pawn for others to manipulate.
She once thought her father truly loved and cherished her. But when the Zhou family of Hong Kong sent a marriage proposal to the Jiang family, she finally understood: before overwhelming profit, all expressions of warmth were nothing but empty words.
At their first meeting, Zhou Jinshen stood in the light and shadow in a precisely tailored black suit, noble and distant, his eyes unreadable. He was the head of the Zhou family, someone the entire Hong Kong elite had to rely on. Calm, restrained, and never once out of composure.
Jiang Jiayu: “Mr. Zhou, I won’t love you.”
Zhou Jinshen: “I don’t need you to love me. We can simply treat each other with respect.”
Back then, her heart was set on the freedom she couldn’t have, and on the one she cherished in secret.
No one could have expected that three years later, everything would be rewritten.
Jiang Jiayu: “Zhou Jinshen, do you still love me?”
Zhou Jinshen: “Loving you is exhausting. I’ve decided to stop.”
