[White Lotus] [Devoted Husband, Fiercely Protective] [Mutual Devotion] [Happy Ending]
Qiao Shu and Ying Feng had known each other since childhood. In high school, she realized she had fallen for the boy next door, who was three years older than her, and worked herself to the bone to get into the same university as him.
Unfortunately, she saw him with his arm around her roommate, someone she had been close to, and her world came crashing down.
Right in front of her, the boy next door tore up the love letter she had written him.
From then on, the light in her heart went out.
Qiao Shu was the bright moon in Ying Feng’s heart. But he had to pursue revenge and give her up, setting out on a path of no return. That light in his heart drifted farther and farther away.
At nineteen, Qiao Shu had no choice but to marry into the Jin family in search of protection, becoming its new bride.
The Jin family’s third son, Jin Heng, agreed to marry Qiao Shu because he needed an ordinary, unpretentious wife.
The two made a private five-year contract. When the five years were up, Jin Heng would clear away every danger threatening Qiao Shu and set her free.
Qiao Shu would have to live on her own in the Jin household for those five years. His only advice was, “Endure.”
To survive among the wealthy, Qiao Shu transformed over those five years from a carefree girl who loved and hated boldly into a sweet-faced, hard-hearted drama queen, a white lotus in full bloom.
You can bully me and humiliate me. I’ll endure it, but I’ll make you pay dearly.
Four years later, he returned.
“I’m back. You’re my wife, so you deserve the respect that comes with it. And I don’t like people bullying what’s mine, or losing. Don’t embarrass me. I’ll take care of everything.”
Fine. It was time to collect on the debts she had built up over the years.
Jin Heng was back, and he found his wife more and more fascinating.
The five-year term could be extended indefinitely.
He was determined to become the light in her heart.
