After spending half a year away on a work trip, Shu Lingyi returned home from her life-or-death work combating desertification, only to find traces of an inappropriate relationship between Xie Yiheng and his adopted sister, Xie Xingyan, in the study.
They had been married for six years, but the mask of the good husband everyone else saw shattered in an instant.
When she confronted him, Xie Yiheng snapped impatiently, "Xingxing is just my younger sister. Isn't it only right for me to look after her as her older brother? Why is your mind so filthy?"
Their son also blamed her for ruining the gift meant for his aunt. "Mom, you're so annoying!"
But he had forgotten that Shu Lingyi had stood by him every step of the way to get him where he was. She turned away decisively and threw herself into her career.
At the peak of her success, Xie Yiheng pleaded with red-rimmed eyes at her celebration banquet. "Honey, I was wrong..."
Their son tugged at her hand, looking pitiful. "Mom, I don't like Auntie anymore. I like you best. Please come back."
Shu Lingyi sneered and walked toward a man nearby, taking the hand of an adorable little girl. "Wife? Mom? Sorry, you've got the wrong person."
I like the heroine's character, she's not aggrieved!
