On the day my parents found me, my brother was afraid of affecting his adopted daughter Gu Qingyan's status in the family.
Locked me in the basement and starved me for three days.
"I have to let her know that I'm not someone to be trifled with, so she doesn't dare to bully Qingyan!"
My life was already hard before, and I was even more skinny.
After hearing this, he just timidly buried his head lower.
My parents were also talking behind my back, saying that I didn't have the demeanor of the Gu family's daughter, but Gu Qingyan could handle it.
They even vaguely regretted recognizing me.
At this moment, Wen Zhishi appeared and protected me behind him.
"Ning Ning, I am different from others. Since I recognize you, I will naturally always treat you well."
Since then, my heart has secretly promised.
Finally, when I was twenty-two years old, Gu Qingyan and I got married together.
Gu Qingyan married Fu Ming, the prince of Beijing, and I married Wen Zhi.
Unexpectedly, I overheard the conversation between Wen Zhishi and his brother a week before the wedding.
"Are you really planning to marry Gu Ning? Who doesn't know what you've been thinking about Gu Qingyan all these years? Are you really willing to do that?"
Wen Zhi, who had never smoked, was choked and coughed violently.
"The Wen family is about to go bankrupt, and the Fu family has rich assets. I must ensure that she has enough food and clothing for the rest of her life."
