Beneath the Mist

[Rekindled love + groveling to win her back + the powerful one bows down]

Three years ago, Xu Ruo, who had always followed Lu Chiyu around like a little shadow, had a one-night mistake with him.

Just as Lu Chiyu was about to agree to let her join the Lu family, he grabbed her chin and ground her dignity underfoot.

“You’re making yourself look cheap, Xu Ruo.”

“If you can’t become a Lu heiress, are you trying to become a Lu daughter-in-law instead?”

Her explanations were useless. She could only leave the country in secret, carrying his child.

Three years later, she returned to China to find a husband who could help save her daughter.

Living under the same roof, she did her best to keep her distance from him.

But on the eve of her wedding, he held her captive, his cool eyes bloodshot. “Who gave you permission to marry someone else with my daughter?”

Xu Ruo looked at him coldly. “Mr. Lu, men and women should keep their distance.”

Lu Chiyu’s hands trembled. “Who gave you permission to let my daughter call him Dad?”

She pushed his hand away. “You’re making yourself look cheap, Lu Chiyu.”
