[Rekindled Love + Mutual Salvation + Devoted, Obsessive Lawyer & Resilient, Independent Curator + Feuds Between Powerful Families + Intense Romantic Tension]
Seven years ago, on a stormy night, Shen Zhiwei accepted a five-million-yuan check and buried her first love with her own hands.
Seven years later, her gallery is on the verge of bankruptcy, and the lead attorney on her case is her ex, Gu Heng, impeccably dressed in a suit with every button fastened.
“Miss Shen, have we met?” His gaze was as cold as ice, his manner strictly professional.
But when he got drunk and lost control, pinning her against a hotel room door, his scorching breath burned her ear. “Why did you betray me… Was it because of this, too?”
The moment his shirt collar was tugged open, she caught sight of the hideous scar snaking across his arm!
Later, he undid the shirt buttons that had bound him for seven years, right in front of her.
With his body covered in scars, he locked her in his arms, eyes bloodshot. “These scars are my punishment for losing you… Zhiwei, I’d follow you into hell.”
The “Underworld Judge of the Legal World,” who had once imprisoned himself, tore up the rules for her, calmly rolling up his scarred sleeves in a courtroom packed with thousands.
“Your Honor, this is my wife, the woman I would give my life to protect.”
Beneath his cold, abstinent exterior was magma boiling for her!
Within her gentle, resilient heart lay the strength to move him!
See how Lawyer Gu tears away his “buttoned-up” disguise with his own hands and spoils the lover he lost and found again beyond measure!
(Author’s note: Extra sweet and angsty, mutual flirtation and devotion, intense pampering once the misunderstandings are cleared up. Warning: the hero goes crazy for love!)
