[Angst before catharsis + political scheming + the first love he could never forget + no forgiveness]
Lin Nian, the daughter of a merchant, invested in a declining military family and opened the doors to an illustrious official career for its heir. But when he succeeded and was ennobled as a marquis, the woman at his side was not her, but the girl he had loved in his youth!
He siphoned off the Lin family’s assets, neglected her for his first love, and even framed her, getting her demoted and forcing her to endure three years of misery!
The world is fickle, and the splendor has faded. Just when Lin Nian sees through it all and wants only to divorce him, one by one, they come begging for her forgiveness!
