The second male lead takes the girl! A groveling quest to win her back!
A seemingly delicate, mute dancer with a sweet exterior and a ruthless core, Chu Hua, versus Wen Shuangxu, a gentle, refined doctor with a devilish streak.
Her high school crush is getting married.
His bride is none other than the “utterly ordinary” Chu Hua.
Chu Hua had lived a charmed life under the protection of the Wen family, until the man she loved, her unattainable ideal, made her lose her voice forever in an “accident.”
During five years abroad, she became the most dazzling black swan onstage. But when she returned home, her biological father treated her like a commodity and offered her to the powerful. Armed with a secret identity, she outwitted the wolves, only to turn around and collide with Wen Shuangxu:
The Wen family's elegant, upright eldest son, the most gentle and refined doctor in Beigang, and the high school crush she had admired most.
“Chu Hua,” he said, his voice so low it was almost tender. “Do you know what marrying me means?”
She looked up at him.
“Starting today, I'll settle every debt you have.” His fingertips brushed the seal on their marriage certificate, dark currents swirling in his eyes. “The debts from five years ago, and the ones you're dealing with now.”
“But... when you're using me, can you tell whether I'm your husband or your benefactor?”
