The regretful husband’s desperate pursuit + pseudo-taboo romance + angst before sweetness
Wen Li is a fake heiress who usurped the place of the real one. To stay with the Wen family, she climbed into her uncle’s bed: the coldhearted head of the Wen family.
She went from the niece he had raised himself to his secret lover.
The day Wen Li became pregnant, news of Wen Yan’s engagement to a movie star flooded the internet.
She was set up to miscarry, framed for theft, and rejected by the family she loved. No one stood by her.
Wen Yan protected the very people who had hurt her.
Her heart turned to ash. She no longer cared about love or family.
Wen Li left the country, became an advertising creative designer, swept the international awards, and rose to prominence in the business world, surrounded by countless talented young men.
Wen Yan, always composed and impeccably proper, panicked. He kept showing up in front of her, even trying to hold on to her by invoking the bond they had shared since childhood.
Wen Li pushed at his chest and lifted her chin. “Do you know your age puts you at a disadvantage?”
Wen Yan could only sigh in exasperation and show her through his actions exactly what he had going for him.
As the head of an elite, powerful family, Wen Yan had enjoyed smooth sailing throughout the first half of his life. He stuck to his principles and never compromised for anyone.
But Wen Li was the exception.
When Wen Li beat up Wen Yan’s savior, she thought he would be angry.
Instead, Wen Yan took her hand and asked, “Does it hurt?”
