A woman’s growth × no getting back together after a breakup × the second male lead wins × a clear-eyed heroine
I gave you my whole heart, but you treated it like dirt and trampled it into the mud with your own hands.
It took Shen Xingchen five years to understand one thing: a marriage where only one person makes an effort is a prison. Her husband’s childhood sweetheart, Qiao Weiwei, stole the work she treasured and dazzled everyone at the launch while Shen Xingchen was powerless to fight back. Realizing she was losing herself, she ended the pregnancy that should never have happened and divorced him to become her own person again.
Shen Xingchen died on that cold night.
From now on, she is Shen Zhenzhu: tempered by pain, polished by her own hand, and destined to shine.
Years later, when they meet again, she is the brightest new star in the jewelry world.
At a high-profile launch, she stands alongside Gu Yanzhi, a mysterious business magnate, radiant as ever.
The man who once discarded her like trash now scrambles like a beggar, trying every possible way to get her to look at him again.
He repents and pleads, even using business tactics to pressure her.
Shen Zhenzhu merely strokes the pearl necklace at her throat, her smile ice-cold.
“Lu Hanzhou, what you threw away is someone else’s treasure.”
“And you, please stop crushing my light.”
It's so profound. I feel like I can't understand it. It's because I'm uneducated.
