Mo Shu is an artistic genius in the eyes of Z City's elite. After a family tragedy in her childhood, she suffered terribly in the Mo family, and for twenty years all she wanted was freedom. To escape this cage, she carefully plotted every move, using her painting, Feast of the Taotie, as bait to get close to Ke Li, a powerful figure at the top of Q City. She treated him as a pawn and used him.
Ke Li was ruthless and immensely powerful, yet he knew it was a trap and willingly fell for her anyway, giving her all his tenderness and clearing every danger from her path. Mo Shu fell for him even as she used him, but chose to leave because of her psychological trauma. She went abroad, only to fall into a scheme laid by her own family, and lost her memory because of her trauma.
When her memories returned, all the pain came flooding back. After pursuing freedom all her life, she chose release on her wedding day, leaving him one last message: "Please live well, for both of us!"
Ke Li wore two rings for the rest of his life and never married.
"Aren't you afraid I'll repay your kindness with betrayal?"
"I'll save you!"
"A Ye, aren't you taking your coat?"
"A Shu, I need you just as much."
"Let's get married, A Ye!"
"I like you! I like you so much it could kill me!"
"Sorry, my wife wouldn't be happy about that!"
It was a hearty read, and I still have enough stamina. "Paint Bait: I Counted His Whole Heart" is a high-quality original work that has been carefully crafted. Its character depth, plot logic, and emotional resonance are the core moats against market homogeneity. You don't have to worry about the platform's routine data at all. Good works will never be buried and will definitely be seen and liked by more people, becoming a bright new star in the heroine's revenge track!
