In her previous life
At eighteen, Xie Yuchi was brought back to the Xie family. She fell in love at first sight with Yao Yi'an, the housekeeper's son, and shamelessly clung to him for four years, even transferring to him the Xie family shares her grandmother had left her.
He accepted her gifts without a second thought, then turned around and gave them to the younger sister who had been switched at birth.
He was devoted to her sister, yet treated Xie Yuchi like a servant.
Once the shares had all been transferred, her sister and Yao Yi'an joined forces to kidnap her.
They beat her for three months in an abandoned warehouse. In the end, Yao Yi'an set her on fire and burned her alive.

When she came to again, she was back at twenty-two. Yao Yi'an was in the next room, holding her sister close.
After giving it some thought, Xie Yuchi threw herself into the arms of Gu Linchuan, the capital's most eligible heir, that very night.
Known in business circles as a war wolf, Gu Linchuan was aloof, arrogant, and sinister: a truly dangerous man.
Gu Linchuan: You dare drug my drink?
Xie Yuchi lifted his chin. “Can't handle one night with me?”
When photos of them in bed were exposed and Xie Yuchi was besieged by critics, she remained utterly relaxed. “Just some random guy. It was only for fun.”
Gu Linchuan's expression darkened. “Had your fun?”
She knew Gu Linchuan had a first love, and that their marriage was only a deal made for mutual benefit.
After the wedding, they got along well. They acted loving in public and treated each other with mutual respect at home.
Eventually, they really did divorce. Yao Yi'an called Xie Yuchi in a sorry state. “Do I still have a chance?”
As soon as he finished asking, he turned around and saw Gu Linchuan pinning Xie Yuchi against the wall. She tipped her head back and gasped for breath.
The man gently bit her collarbone and threatened with a cold laugh, “Even divorced, you can't escape me. Be good and call me hubby!”
