In both lifetimes, the investment banking tycoon who controlled a trillion-yuan flow of capital at just twenty-eight was the defining assignment of her career as a financial reporter.
In her previous life, he held her in his arms and gently coaxed her to come back to the capital to see him. She ran away instead.
In this life, he asks, “Would you like to give us a try?” and she says yes. She sets the trap of a whirlwind marriage, and he jumps right in, eager to pull her into his arms first. Little does he know he’s actually leapt straight into her hands.
In her previous life, when his reputation was in ruins and he was behind bars, she interviewed him as a legal affairs reporter, only to hit the biggest setback of her career. Still, she believed in him and hired a top lawyer to clear his name. She also discovered that everything he had done for her, even the major case she had once investigated undercover, was what had brought him to where he was.
Just as he finally found hope again, she died in a meticulously staged car crash arranged by a rival hiding in the shadows. When he found out, he handed over the evidence in his possession, choosing to go down fighting and face death with hope.
Given another chance, he’ll first pull her close, bind them together with a marriage certificate and a shared household register, and keep her in his bed, loving her day and night. It’s an obsession he can’t let go of, and the only weapon that can withstand the long nights and the evils of the outside world.
This time around, they stand shoulder to shoulder. They dismantle the evils that took shape in their previous life before they can unfold, expose the mastermind behind it all, raise a family, and become a couple everyone envies…
This isn’t a fluffy, clueless romance. The sweetness is real, and so is the darkness, perhaps. It’s just that those who carry the heaviest burdens have already forged the way ahead…
