He Burned Through His Love, Yet Still Bowed His Head and Begged Me to Look Back

“We’ve all taken countless wrong turns, but one day, this brief, firework-like love will burn everything to ashes. You’re left with regret, while I’m left alone.” In this cruel twist of fate, she was forced to become a “contract” in his life, while he saw her as an enemy beyond forgiveness. To save her bankrupt family, Lin Qingning married the cold and heartless Chu Ting. She thought that if she gave him her sincere love, she would eventually melt his icy heart. But Chu Ting saw her affection as a scheme, treating her with coldness and humiliating her at every turn. She persevered, endured, and hoped, only to be pushed away again and again. Every time she drew near, his cruelty sent her plunging back into despair. When misunderstanding and pain had built up into countless cracks, Qingning finally gave up hope and chose to leave. Only when she decided to start over did Chu Ting realize that what he felt for her was no longer hatred, but an irrepressible love. Yet the harm he had caused could not be erased so easily. Tormented by regret, he could only wander in anguish through the night, waiting for her forgiveness.
