[Clear-headed, confident new graduate + abstinent, refined heir to a powerful Beijing family]
[Caregiving + being cared for + secret crush + incest + powerful family + one-on-one, both virgins]
Li Youjia, a top student from a prestigious university, receives the devastating news that her parents have died in a car accident just one week after she starts school.
On the day of the funeral, her cold-hearted third uncle and his family plot to seize her inheritance. She “wisely” agrees. Then they sell her off as a bride to a rural butcher more than twenty years her senior, so their own daughter can marry into a wealthy family in her place. She smiles...
Her life of sweetness is shattered. As flames burn away the last of her hesitation, she says, “Mr. Si, I want to make a deal with you. One that will give you complete control of the Si family and help me bury a few pests along the way...”
When she is consumed by hatred and ready to become a weapon, he tells her, “Hatred is a fire. It can burn your enemies to ashes, but it can also scorch the one holding the torch. I'll help you get your revenge.”
Mr. Si lures his enemies in, while the seemingly sweet Li family's eldest daughter reveals her dark side, going in... slipping out... time and again.
By a “twist of fate,” she gets pregnant with Mr. Si's child. “Since you've gotten pregnant with my baby, Li Youjia, marry me!”
“Si Huaian, the baby's in my belly. Whether I keep it is my choice, and so is whether I marry you.”
Outsiders say Li Youjia is a penniless nobody who pretends to be aloof while clinging to a rich man.
But later, everyone in Beijing knows that Si Weian keeps her in a world of sweetness, where no one can touch or criticize her.
As Mr. Si puts it, “Jiajia is so kind. Whatever she does is right. If anyone's wrong, it must be someone else.”
His friend warns him, “Weian, Li Youjia married you because she was pregnant. She's trying to take you for a ride. Don't be a fool!”
“Jiajia is my life. She can have my life if she wants it, let alone my money and status.”
