A Perilous Light That Eats at the Bone

A grand wedding was the funeral she had meticulously planned.

Shen Yu married Lin Wan for revenge. At the wedding, he admitted it to her face: “Yes, I married you only to get back at your father.”

In front of everyone, she smiled and drained the “poisoned wine” he'd prepared. As he stared in shock, she fell with cold resolve, shattering his victory in the most devastating way.

Five years later, she returned, reborn from the ashes, with a dazzling new lover by her side, someone who could stand against him. Her smile was radiant, as if the past had never burned her. And he, once the untouchable man moving all the pieces on the board, could only cast aside every last shred of dignity, kneel before her in the pouring rain, and beg her to look back at him.

When she finally had the chance to tear through the layers of lies, she discovered that the poison wine that had burned through her lungs had secretly been switched to a life-saving antidote the moment he handed it to her.

Was the agony that gnawed to the bone caused by the plot from years ago, or by a dangerous love buried deep in his heart and hidden beneath his hatred?
